1.The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out otherwise than in complete accordance with the approved plans (as set out on page one of this decision notice). Reason:- The Local Planning Authority consider it essential that the whole of the development is carried out and that no departure whatsoever is made from the details approved, since the development would not necessarily be acceptable if partly carried out or carried out differently in any degree from the details submitted. Also, in order that the development accords with Development Control Policies Development Plan Document Policy DC61.
2.Use of the jetty for marine logistics purposes and in connection with the silt lagoons restoration shall cease when landfilling of the adjacent landfill is complete (before aftercare) unless and/or until: (a) a scheme for the future operation and functioning of the jetty and any access routes to/from it, such scheme demonstrating how the jetty and movements associated with it can satisfactorily relate to the future conservation park and associated recreation/visitor facilities together with timetable for implementation of any measures proposed to mitigate impact, is submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall be implemented in complete accordance with the details approved. (b) subject to satisfying (a) above, a management plan is submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority outlining the subsequent multi-use of the jetty as a logistics hub, facility for silt lagoon restoration and leisure facility including full details of access arrangements for the jetty and timescales for implementation of any measures connected with multi-use. Once approved, the jetty shall only be operated in accordance with the management plan. Reason:- The Local Planning Authority wish to ensure that the future impact of commercial use of the jetty does not unacceptably impact upon the planned Wildspace conservation park proposed or prejudice the future aspirations for the wider site to be a recreational asset which may wish to utilise the river and jetty once the landfill is complete.
3.During the operation of the landfill site in accordance with Planning Permission Reference P1566.12, the total number of lorry movements to or from the jetty shall not exceed 100 loads (total 200 movements). After 31 December 2026, or when material is no longer permitted to be imported onto the landfill site, whichever is the sooner, the total number of lorry movements to or from the jetty shall not exceed 80 loads (total 160 movements). A detailed log of all lorry loads and movements to and from the jetty shall be kept at all times and available for inspection in the jetty office (office on the weighbridge). Reason:- In order that the activity associated with the use is an acceptable level in terms of noise, visual amenity and compatibility with future recreational use of the area.
4.No landing of waste materials or dredging to be used in the restoration of the Rainham silt lagoons or general logistics hub use shall occur until a scheme of ecology enhancements has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall include, but not be limited to, the provision of bolt-on timber fenders to the jetty and furthermore outline a timetable for the installation of the enhancements proposed and their maintenance throughout the use hereby approved. The scheme as approved shall be implemented in accordance with the agreed timescale and thereafter retained. Reason:- In view of the nearby ecological designations and the status of the River Thames, given this application proposes the permanent retention of the jetty and associated its infrastructure, it is considered that the scheme of ecological enhancements will ensure that the site positively contributes to the local environment and biodiversity value, in accordance with Development Control Policies Development Plan Document Policies DC58 and DC61, Policy SSA17 of the Site Specific Allocations Development Plan Document and London Plan Policies 7.19 and 7.29.
5.No landing of waste materials or dredging to be used in the restoration of the Rainham silt lagoons or use as general logistics hub shall occur until details of the proposed hours of operation are submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The jetty shall be operated in accordance with the details approved. Reason:- To ensure that the additional use of the jetty can be monitored by the Local Planning Authority and in the interests of ensuring that any intensification does not give rise to undue environmental, amenity or highway implications contrary to Development Control Policies Development Plan Document Policies DC32, DC55, DC58 and DC61.
6.Details of any external lighting shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, for review and approval in writing, prior to installation. Any such submission shall include details of the extent of illumination together with precise details of the height, location and design of the lights. The installation of any such lighting shall be undertaken in accordance with the approved details. Reason:- Insufficient information has been supplied with the application to judge the impact arising from the installation of external lighting. Submission of this detail prior to installation will protect amenity; the river corridor and ensure that the development accords with Development Control Policies Development Plan Document Policies DC56, DC58 and DC61.
7.Notwithstanding the details shown on plan number 0225-03/01, no storage of material, parking/waiting of vehicles, loading/unloading or other operations shall take place on the landward part of the site. All activity including storage, loading/unloading and other operations shall take place on the jetty structure itself. Reason:- In the interests of the visual amenity of the area and future recreational use of the former landfill site.
