Enforcement of Conditions (PP)
Your attention is drawn to the Conditions of this Permission and to the Council's powers of enforcement, including the power to serve a Breach of Condition Notice under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as amended. All Conditions must be complied with. If you wish to seek to amend a Condition you should apply to do so under s.73 of the Act, explaining why you consider it is no longer necessary, or possible, to comply with a particular condition.

Advice should urgently be sought if a problem occurs during approved works, but it is clearly preferable to seek advice at as early a stage as possible.

The main set of contaminated land conditions are attached to this decision notice as contamination of soil or water is judged to have the potential to harm people, property, or the wider environment or to pollute waters. Reference must be made to the CLC1 guidance produced by the Pollution Regulatory Team (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/environment/land-contamination/land-contamination) (where available) and the Environment Agency's Land Contamination Risk Management Guidance. Local information, which should be obtained, includes a search of the Pollution Regulatory Team's records (email [email protected]), freely available recent and historical planning information (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/planning/searches/default.aspx) and potentially information available at the local studies library at Kensington Library (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/libraries-0/libraries-and-room-hire/local-studies-and-archives). We strongly recommend that a competent and appropriately qualified environmental professional undertakes or oversees the work to discharge the conditions. The responsibility to properly address contaminated land issues, including safe development and secure occupancy, and irrespective of any involvement by the Council lies with the owner/developer of the site.

Unique text
Informative - Radon monitoring The UK Health Security Agency and HSE policy and guidance recommends and, in some cases, requires, that the owner and/or occupier of buildings undertake radon monitoring in all occupied and used basement areas. Radon monitoring should therefore be undertaken in line with these requirements. If monitoring identifies radon levels above the target level of 100Bq/m3 within a dwelling or above the relevant action level for occupational exposure, actions are recommended and for workplaces, may be required by the HSE. If radon is identified above 100Bq/m3 during future monitoring, please inform the Council at [email protected].
