impact upon the community (Policy S6 of <strong>Lambeth</strong>’s Core Strategy).<br />

33. Piling or any other foundation designs using penetrative methods shall not<br />

be permitted on relevant parts of the site other than with the express written<br />

consent of the Local Planning Authority in consultation with the Environment<br />

Agency, which may be given for those parts of the site where it has been<br />

demonstrated that there is no resultant unacceptable risk to groundwater. The<br />

development shall be carried out in accordance with the approved details.<br />

Reason: The developer should be aware of the potential risks associated with<br />

the use of piling where contamination is an issue. Piling or other penetrative<br />

methods of foundation design on contaminated sites can potentially result in<br />

unacceptable risks to underlying groundwaters. We recommend that where soil<br />

contamination is present, a risk assessment is carried out in accordance with<br />

our guidance 'Piling into Contaminated Sites'. We will not permit piling activities<br />

on parts of a site where an unacceptable risk is posed to Controlled Waters. To<br />

ensure that sufficient capacity is made available to cope with the new<br />

development; and in order to avoid adverse environmental impact upon the<br />

community (Policy S6 of <strong>Lambeth</strong>’s Core Strategy).<br />

34. Whilst the principles and installation of sustainable drainage schemes are to<br />

be encouraged, no infiltration of surface water drainage into the ground is<br />

permitted other than with the express written consent of the Local Planning<br />

Authority, which may be given for those parts of the site where it has been<br />

demonstrated that there is no resultant unacceptable risk to Controlled Waters.<br />

The development shall be carried out in accordance with the approval details.<br />

Reason: Infiltrating water has the potential to cause remobilisation of<br />

contaminants present in shallow soil/made ground which could ultimately cause<br />

pollution of groundwater. To ensure that sufficient capacity is made available to<br />

cope with the new development; and in order to avoid adverse environmental<br />

impact upon the community (Policy S6 of <strong>Lambeth</strong>’s Core Strategy).<br />

Heritage<br />

35. No development of the relevant part (other than demolition) shall take place<br />

until the developer has secured the implementation of a programme of<br />

archaeological work in accordance with a written scheme for investigation which<br />

has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority.<br />

The archaeological works shall be carried out by a suitably qualified<br />

investigating body acceptable to the local planning authority.<br />

Reason: To allow adequate archaeological investigation before any<br />

archaeological remains may (Policy 47 of the Saved Unitary Development Plan<br />

and Policy S9 of the Core Strategy).<br />
