HAND DIGGAL NO NEAR WATERCOURSE, NO MACHINERY, IN 60 NEAR RIVER BANK, ON RIVER BANK SIDE, HOLE TO BE MADE TO ACCOMMODATE END OF ROOM PIPE, CONCRETE TO BE LAID (SMALL PATEA) ON TOP OF RIVER BANK.

4. Timing:

Certain activities have greater impact on a watercourse at different times of year (e.g., at times of high water temperature or low flow conditions). Please give details of the timing of phases of the development which are likely to affect the watercourse. Note in-channel works are not normally permitted between the months of October to June inclusive.

NOT APPLICABLE - WORK TO BE CARRIED OUT OVER THE SUMMER.

5. Building Materials (Concrete, mortar and cement):

These substances are highly damaging to the aquatic environment. Please give details relating to the use of these materials and how you intend to prevent their introduction into the watercourse.

READY MIXED "50 JUMP" CONCRETE, THIS IS VISCONS AND WONT RUN. TO BE LAID ON TOP OF RIVER BANK, BUT WONT RUN IN, DECAUSE OF IT'S VISCOSCITY. WONT BE LAID IN INCREMENT WEATHER & EITHER. SMALL PATEA OF CONCRETE IS INVOLVED.

6. Other toxic materials: Many common building materials such as paint, solvents, fuels, lubricants etc. may also be hazardous. Please give details relating to their potential use and how you intend to prevent the introduction of these materials into the watercourse.

• NONE TO BE USED NONE EIVER (IF TUEL ETC)
• BE FUEL & HYDRAULIC PLUID OIL FURTHER AWAY IN

7. Washings from equipment and works: Although they may be diluted, the washings from cleaning equipment and other works may also contain substances harmful to the aquatic environment. Washings often go unnoticed as the activity may be carried out some distance from the watercourse, however they can flow or percolate into the watercourse causing harm. Please give details as to how such washings are to be managed.
