To accompany a planning application of this size
it will be necessary for Gladedale to produce an
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). The scope
of the EIA is determined by a Scoping Report,
which is submitted to the local authority. They
will advise and ratify the scope and extent of
the EIA or, recommend additional work. The
Scoping report has now been received and is
being reviewed by Elmbridge Borough Council, who
will advise Gladedale how to proceed.
The HCRC has read the Scoping Report and has
reservations about its range and remit. There
are important considerations that, given the
sensitivity of the site, have not been fully
explored. HCRC has responded to the report by
means of a ‘Letter of Representation’. This has
been sent to Elmbridge Council and outlines
their profound concerns. See below
The full report and the associated ‘Letters
of Representation’ are available in full at
