Any application would require a Preliminary Risk Assessment to assess the possible impact of contamination on water receptors.
Treated foul effluent from non-mains systems would discharge to Gog Brook which is failing its targets on invertebrates and phosphates. Further discharges of nutrient rich material are not appropriate. A connection to the existing foul sewer serving the housing opposite may be possible and should be explored and this site only brought forward if less sensitive sites are unsuitable.
A suitable means of dealing with foul effluent will be required.
The eastern part of the site falls within Flood Zone 3 of the Gog Brook. The site could only be brought forward if the site boundary were redrawn to exclude the land within the mapped floodplain.
