Conditions or Reasons:

13) Notwithstanding the development hereby approved, no development shall commence (including any demolition, ground works, site clearance) until a landscape and ecological management plan (LEMP) has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The content of the LEMP shall include the following.
Description and evaluation of features to be managed.
Ecological trends and constraints on site that might influence management.
Aims and objectives of management.

Prescriptions for management actions.
Preparation of a work schedule (including an annual work plan capable of being rolled forward over a five-year period).
Details of the body or organization responsible for implementation of the plan.
Ongoing monitoring and remedial measures.

The LEMP shall also include details of the legal and funding mechanism(s) by which the long-term implementation of the plan will be secured by the developer with the management body(ies) responsible for its delivery. The plan shall also set out (where the results from monitoring show that conservation aims and objectives of the LEMP are not being met) how contingencies and/or remedial action will be identified, agreed and implemented so that the development still delivers the fully functioning biodiversity objectives of the originally approved scheme. The approved plan will be implemented in accordance with the approved details.

have been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. These shall be carried out in full in accordance with the approved details.
