Information submitted is sufficient to allow condition to be discharged

Having considered the information submitted to enable Condition 6 to be discharged, Natural England agrees with the conclusions of the Habitats Regulations Assessment completed by INCA, in that the proposed development will not have an adverse effect on the integrity of the Teesmouth and Cleveland Coast Special Protection Area (SPA) and Ramsar site.

Natural England considers the submitted information to be sufficient to enable the condition to be discharged.

In granting the original permission, a condition was attached to the approval relating to the phasing of the development. The condition relating to phasing was condition 4, which has been submitted for initial discharge based on the information currently held by the developer. The application for discharge of condition 6 relates to Phase 3 of this proposed phasing plan, and the submission is therefore considered on the basis of a partial discharge.

The submitted information has been considered by Natural England. Given the information supporting the application, no objection has been raised to the proposed development and it is considered that the development will not have an adverse effect on the integrity of the Teesmouth and Cleveland Coast Special Protection

Area (SPA) and Ramsar site.

Given the response from Natural England it is considered that condition 6 can be partially discharged in so far as it relates to Phase 3 (as set out in the Phasing Plan dated 7th July 2021 considered under reference number R-2021/0269/CD-Officer Report) of the development as consented under application R-2021/0473/ESM-Officer Report on 10th September 2021.

Taking into account the content of the report the recommendation is condition 6 can be partially discharged in so far as it relates to Phase 3 (as set out in the Phasing Plan dated 7th July 2021 considered under reference number R-2021/0269/CD-Officer Report) of the development as consented under application R-2021/0473/ESM-Officer Report on 10th
