Planning application 16/00491/B Erection of a building to provide toilet facilities Laxey Wheel

The proposed works for this application are close to a watercourse. Precautions will be needed to reduce the possibility of harmful materials such as concrete or sediment entering the watercourse and potentially being washed down-stream.

A completed 'Development within 9m of a Watercourse' form has been received and checked by DEFA fisheries. Suitable precautions have been considered by the applicant on the received form. DEFA Fisheries have no objection to the proposed development, provided that these precautions are followed and there is no disturbance of the watercourse or its banks. The applicant is however advised to contact DEFA when works are due to commence, which can be done by email or telephone.

Kind regards
