Along with other relevant policies in the plan, this policy will be a material consideration in assessing individual planning and waste applications, notifications and any consultations related to the decommissioning of Oldbury power station. Clearly defined and measurable Key Performance Indicators will be needed to assess progress and delivery over time. Given the nature and scale of many NSIPs, it is likely that the full range of topics under the Environmental Impact Assessment regulations will need to be considered. Motorcycle and other powered two wheelers can offer an affordable means of movement for trips where public transport is limited and walking and cycling unrealistic.

Decommissioning involves activities such as the removal and temporary storage and/or disposal of hazardous waste such as asbestos and radioactive waste, the rationalisation of buildings and reuse of land for activities relating to of decommissioning, and the demolition of those that are no longer needed. The emerging policy on radioactive waste is also of particular relevance to the development of a masterplan for decommissioning. Where we hope to develop policies covering new topics, this is also indicated.

However, if unforeseen changes in the project occur, such as a delay in the provision of supporting infrastructure, these peak numbers may be sustained over a longer period of time. The zones are areas of the district considered to have a high level of access to services and facilities and high level of public transport connections. This information is also useful in understanding how once our Local Plan 2020 is eventually adopted, the existing policies will be replaced with a range of new policies that will set different approaches and requirements.

Key Services and Facilities and appropriate walking & cycling distances to them will be defined in a proposed new policy Sustainable Travel & Access, which will be brought forward in future stages of the Local Plan. In line with this guidance, site operators are required to produce a Waste Management Plan, a Site Wide Environmental Safety Case, and strategies to keep the risk of radiation exposure to people as low as reasonably achievable, taking into account economic and social factors.

It is important to engage with local communities at an early stage in the development process. Where it is proposed that capacity is provided for the management of waste from other sites, it can be demonstrated it is strongly justified that the facility will meet a need that is not met elsewhere that better accords with the proximity principle, and accords with the above criteria. After consultation with a scheme promoter and other relevant parties and as appropriate to the scale of development proposed, prepare a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) to provide more detailed and/or site specific guidance to inform the Councils: i. pre-and post-application engagement and consultation responses;ii.

This document is therefore a key starting point in the process and journey to prepare a new Local Plan. 26. In order to meet the objectives outlined in the plan the Council proposes to future proof development now in order to allow for an electric vehicle revolution. The information that applicants will need to provide must, as a minimum: Core Strategy Policy CS3 Renewable and low carbon energy generation, Partial replacement of CS4 Renewable or low carbon district heat networks. Significant weight will be given to outstanding or innovative designs which respond to positive, locally distinctive features. Changes to the way the planning system operates (including national planning policy) is likely to have a strong influence on the range and content of planning policies we include in our Local Plan 2020.
