Part A: No demolition or development hereby approved shall take place until an archaeological written scheme of investigation (WSI) has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The said development shall only be implemented in full accordance with the approved archaeological scheme and the WSI shall contain the following components:
method statements for the investigation of any archaeological remains that will be affected by the development including any demolition phase; and
a strategy for post-excavation assessment, analysis, archive preparation and publication, including details of the timetable for each stage of the post-excavation works
Part B: This condition shall only be fully discharged when:
all elements of the archaeological fieldwork have been undertaken, and the date of completion has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority;
it has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority that the programme of interpretation, public outreach and community engagement has been completed;
the post-excavation assessment, analysis and final archaeological report has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This shall be done within 18 months of the date of completion of the archaeological fieldwork unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority;
the preparation of the site archives (including the production of an archive report) for deposition at stores approved by the Local Planning Authority has been undertaken and confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. For the digital archive this will include confirmation of the intention to deposit with a CoreTrustSeal certified repository dedicated to storing archaeological archives; and
the publication report text has been prepared for submission to either a recognised archaeological journal, or an approved final archaeological report is submitted for inclusion in the Historic Environment Record, and this has been confirmed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing by the Local Planning Authority, items 2, 4, and 5 of Part B of this condition shall be completed within 3 years of the archaeological fieldwork date of completion.
Reason: In line with policy HE1 of the Central Bedfordshire Local Plan 2015-2035, July 2021, and paragraph 218 of the National Planning Policy Framework, December 2023, to investigate and record any archaeological remains affected by the development, to safeguard the long-term future of the archive and to make the record of all the work publicly available. Part A of this condition is pre-commencement because development works can have an irreversible impact on archaeological remains and an approved programme of investigation must be in place before the development starts. |

Prior to the development hereby approved being brought into use details shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority of the external sound level emitted from the electrical supply equipment and of mitigation measures as appropriate.

The assessment shall be made in accordance with BS4142:2014 at the nearest and/or most affected noise sensitive premises, with all equipment operating together at maximum capacity. A post installation noise assessment shall be carried out where required to confirm compliance with the sound criteria and additional steps to mitigate noise shall be taken, as necessary. Approved details shall be implemented prior to the development being brought into use and thereafter be permanently retained with the exception of specific changes to the noise details that are requested by the Local Planning Authority in writing to address statutory nuisance.
Reason: To protect the amenity of neighbouring occupiers in terms of noise impact.
