4 )The applicant is advised that the requirements of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 will apply to any works undertaken within the limits of the existing public highway. Further details can be obtained by contacting the Streetworks Manager, Central Bedfordshire Council, by contacting the Highways Helpdesk 0300 300 8301.The applicant is advised that the requirements of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 will apply to any works undertaken within the limits of the existing public highway.

5 )The applicant is advised that the storage of materials associated with the construction of this development should take place within the site and not extend into or within the public highway without authorisation from the highway authority. If necessary, the applicant should contact the Streetworks Manager, Central Bedfordshire Council, by contacting the Highways Helpdesk 0300 300 8301.The applicant is advised that the storage of materials associated with the construction of this development should take place within the site and not extend into or within the public highway without authorisation from the highway authority.

6 )Water Quality The construction works and operation of the proposed development site should be done in accordance with the relevant British Standards and Best Management Practices, thereby significantly reducing the groundwater pollution risk. It should be noted that the construction works may exacerbate any existing pollution. If any pollution is found at the site then the appropriate monitoring and remediation methods will need to be undertaken. For any works involving excavations below the chalk groundwater table (for example, piling or the implementation of a geothermal open/closed loop system), a ground investigation should first be carried out to identify appropriate techniques and to avoid displacing any shallow contamination to a greater depth, which could impact the chalk aquifer. For further information we refer you to CIRIA Publication C532 "Control of water pollution from construction - guidance for consultants and contractors".Water Quality The construction works and operation of the proposed development site should be done in accordance with the relevant British Standards and Best Management Practices, thereby significantly reducing the groundwater pollution risk.

7 )Water Efficiency Being within a water stressed area, Affinity Water expect that the development includes water efficient fixtures and fittings. Measures such as rainwater harvesting and grey water recycling help the environment by reducing pressure for abstractions. They also minimise potable water use by reducing the amount of potable water used for washing, cleaning and watering gardens. This in turn reduces the carbon emissions associated with treating this water to a standard suitable for drinking and will help in our efforts to get emissions down in the area. Affinity Water currently offer a discount to the infrastructure charge for each new development where evidence of a water efficiency design to a standard of 110 litres (or less) per person per day is expected. The discount value for the charging period 2023/24 is £258.

8 )Infrastructure Connections and Diversions There are potentially water mains running through or near to part of proposed development site. If the development goes ahead as proposed, the applicant/developer will need to get in contact with Affinity Water's Developer Services Team to discuss asset protection or diversionary measures. This can be done through the My Developments Portal (https://affinitywater.custhelp.com/) or aw_developerservices@custhelp.com. Due to its location, Affinity Water will supply drinking water to the development in the event that it is constructed. Should planning permission be granted, the applicant is also advised to contact Developer Services as soon as possible regarding supply matters due to the increased demand for water in the area resulting from this development. To apply for a new or upgraded connection, please contact Affinity Water's Developer Services Team by going through their My Developments Portal (https://affinitywater.custhelp.com/) or aw_developerservices@custhelp.com. The Team also handle C3 and C4 requests to cost potential water mains diversions. If a water mains plan is required, this can also be obtained by emailing maps@affinitywater.co.uk. Please note that charges may apply.Infrastructure Connections and Diversions There are potentially water mains running through or near to part of proposed development site.
