20 Environmental Overview and Guidance Recommendations - Flood Groundsure consider that the area within 25m of the centre of the property has a Negligible risk of flooding. Please note this rating is calculated using a weighted assessment of fluvial, coastal and pluvial risk and historic flood events only. Recommendations A Very Low risk of tidal/fluvial flooding and a Negligible risk of surface water (pluvial) flooding have been identified within 25m of the centre of the property. Please refer to the individual flood assessment sections below for further specific guidance. Alternatively flood resistance measures may assist in reducing the flood risk to the property. Please be aware that this is an automated assessment based upon the highest flood risk found within 25m of the centre of the property. Therefore a purchaser may wish to check the maps provided within this report to confirm whether the flood risk area lies on or in close proximity to the property. If you would like Groundsure to manually assess the property a 35 + VAT fee may be applicable. Please note this manual assessment does not include a site visit. JBA Overall Insurability Index Guidance The property has been rated as Green within JBA's Insurability Index. Green indicates a level of flood hazard such that (subject to terms, applicant's status and individual insurers' approach to risk, exclusions to the Flood Re scheme and any other factors which may be relevant), insurance covering flood risk may be obtainable relatively easily as part of a standard household insurance contract. This rating is calculated by JBA and is based entirely on JBA's modelled river, coastal and pluvial flood risk data. This data is used by a large number of top insurance companies in order to assess flood risk, though individual insurers may also have recourse to further information not used in this assessment such as claim history, and is indicative rather than definitive. On the 4th April 2016 the Flood Re scheme was implemented. The scheme is designed to provide affordable household insurance for residential properties within the UK, which are perceived to have a high flood risk. Insurance companies are able to cede residential properties they consider to have a flood risk into the Flood Re scheme. Annual premiums and excesses are then capped depending on the council tax band for individual properties. There are some exclusions to the Flood Re scheme and these include; commercial properties (including buy to let), new homes built after 1st January 2009 and blocks of flats with three or more units. Flood Re is designed to run for 25 years, to allow time for the Government, local authorities, insurers and communities to become better prepared for flooding. After this period, the market is expected to return to risk reflective pricing, and properties with flood risks that have not been mitigated may face significantly increased premiums and/or difficulty in obtaining cover. The JBA Insurability Index is categorised on a fivefold scale and also includes a statement of the possibility of insurance companies ceding the property into the Flood Re scheme (subject to terms, applicant s status and individual insurers approach to risk, historical flooding events at the property, exclusions to the Flood Re scheme and any other factors which may be relevant),- Green indicates a level of flood hazard such that insurance covering flood risk may be obtainable relatively easily as part of a standard household insurance contract. Very low possibility of insurance companies ceding the property into the Flood Re scheme unless the property has flooded in the past.

21 Please note that due to the methodology employed to produce the dataset, JBA insurability ratings are only suitable for individual residential properties and as such any rating given for commercial property should be considered invalid. As this index is indicative we recommend a number of insurers are contacted in order to obtain a comparative quote. Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea (RoFRaS) As the site lies within or in close proximity to an area with a Very Low risk rating in the RoFRaS database no further recommendations are required. Guidance The Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales RoFRaS database provides an indication of river and coastal flood risk at a national level on a 50m grid with the flood rating at the centre of the grid calculated and given above. The data considers the likelihood of flood defences overtopping or breaching by considering their location type condition and standard of protection. A number of major insurance companies refer to this information within their risk model although they may also utilise additional information such as claims histories which may further influence their decision. Where a High risk of flooding is identified there is a much higher likelihood of increased insurance premiums or the flood risk part of the insurance premium being ceded to Flood Re. Property owners of sites within Low and Medium risk areas are still considered to be at risk of flooding and insurance premiums may be increased as a result. Owners of properties within Low, Medium and High risk areas are advised to sign up to the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales's Flood Warning scheme on or at Please see Section 5.1 for further details. Additionally a prudent purchaser may wish to consider reducing the impact of flooding at the property by installing flood protection measures at the site if risks have been identified. Such measures may help reduce the effects of flooding at the property if flood defences are absent or are breached and may assist in obtaining insurance for the site. Further information on flood protection measures can be obtained by contacting Groundsure. Surface Water Flooding The study site or an area within 25m of the centre of the study site has been assessed to be at a Negligible risk of surface water (pluvial) flooding. This indicates that this area would be expected to be affected by surface water flooding in a 1 in 1000 year rainfall event to a depth of less than 0.1m. Guidance Surface Water (pluvial) flooding is defined as flooding caused by rainfall-generated overland flow before the runoff enters a watercourse or sewer. In such events, sewerage and drainage systems and surface watercourses may be entirely overwhelmed. Surface Water (pluvial) flooding will usually be a result of extreme rainfall events though may also occur when lesser amounts of rain falls on land which has low permeability and/or is already saturated, frozen or developed. In such cases overland flow and 'ponding' in topographical depressions may occur. This data is provided by JBA Risk Management. Please see Section 5.7 for further details. Historic Flood Events The site is not recorded to have been subject to historic flooding. However the absence of data does not provide a definitive conclusion that the site has never flooded, only that the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales hold no record of any flooding at the site. Guidance Over 23,500 separate events are recorded within the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales's national database on historic flood events. This data is used to understand where flooding has occurred in the past and provides details as available. Absence of a historic flood event for an area does not mean that the area has never flooded but only that the national Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales do not currently have records of flooding within the area. Local Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales offices and Local Authorities may have records of smaller-scale flooding and homeowners are also advised to check their TA6 Property Information form for any records of flooding. A record of a flood footprint in previous years does not mean that an area will flood again and this information does not take account of flood management schemes and improved flood defences. Please see Section 5.6 for further details. 4 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

22 Areas Benefiting from Flood Defences The property does not lie in or within 25m of an area the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales consider to benefit from flood defences. Property-level defences and some older schemes may not be included in the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales database of areas considered to benefit from flood defences. Guidance These are areas that may benefit from the presence of major defences during a 1% fluvial (river) or 0.5% tidal flood event. These areas would flood if the defence were not present but may not flood because the defence is present. Proposed Flood Defences The property does not lie in or within 25m of an area the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales consider to benefit from proposed flood defences. Guidance Flood defences seek to reduce the risk of flooding and to safeguard life, protect property, sustain economic activity and the natural environment. Flood defences are designed to protect against flood events of a particular magnitude expressed as risk in any one year. Flooding from Groundwater There is potential for groundwater flooding to occur at the surface of the study site. Where potential for groundwater flooding to occur at surface is indicated this means that given the geological conditions in the area groundwater flooding hazard should be considered in all land-use planning decisions. It is recommended that other relevant information e.g. records of previous incidence of groundwater flooding, rainfall property type and land drainage information be investigated in order to establish relative but not absolute risk of groundwater flooding. Guidance The BGS Susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding hazard dataset identifies areas where geological conditions could enable groundwater flooding to occur and where groundwater may come close to the ground surface. The BGS Susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding hazard dataset identifies areas where geological conditions could enable groundwater flooding to occur and where groundwater may come close to the ground surface. The susceptibility data is suitable for use for regional or national planning purposes where the groundwater flooding information will be used along with a range of other relevant information to inform land-use planning decisions. It might also be used in conjunction with a large number of other factors e.g. records of previous incidence of groundwater flooding rainfall property type and land drainage information to establish relative but not absolute risk of groundwater flooding at a resolution of greater than a few hundred metres. The susceptibility data should not be used on its own to make planning decisions at any scale and in particular should not be used to inform planning decisions at the site scale. The susceptibility data cannot be used on its own to indicate risk of groundwater flooding. Flood Storage Areas The property does not lie in or within 25m of a Flood Storage Area. Guidance Flood Storage Areas are considered part of the functional flood plain and are areas where water has to flow or be stored in times of flood. 5 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

23 Flood Risk Framework The Flood Risk Assessment section is based on datasets covering a variety of different flooding types. No inspection of the property or of the surrounding area has been undertaken by Groundsure or the data providers. The modelling of flood hazards is extremely complex and in creating a national dataset certain assumptions have been made and all such datasets will have limitations. These datasets should be used to give an indication of relative flood risk rather than a definitive answer. Local actions and minor variations such as blocked drains or streams etc. can greatly alter the effect of flooding. A low or negligible modelled flood risk does not guarantee that flooding will not occur. Nor will a high risk mean that flooding definitely will occur. Groundsure's overall flood risk assessment takes account of the cumulative risk as assessed within the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales's RoFRaS database in addition to surface water (pluvial) flooding and historic flood events. 6 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

28 Notes on Professional Assessments Professional Assessment of Contaminated Land Please note that this assessment takes account of the following data: historical land use, landfill and waste transfer/treatment or disposal sites, scrap yards, current industrial uses (as defined by PointX data), Part A(1), A(2) and B Processes, COMAH and NIHHS sites, Dangerous Substances releases, RAS consents, Discharge and Red List Discharge consents, EPA 1990 sites, Pollution Incidents and Hazardous Substance Consents and Enforcements. This information is listed in this report. The Professional Assessment of Contaminated Land does not include assessment of the risk presented by natural hazards such as radon, subsidence or flooding or for past or present coal mining activity. No physical inspection of the property has been carried out. Our risk assessments assume that the Site will be used for residential accommodation. The report is not suitable for non-domestic properties or for identifying risks for developments at the planning stage in accordance with National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). Professional Assessment of Flood Risk Please note this assessment is based entirely on information provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales (river/coastal flooding) and JBA Risk Management (pluvial/surface water flooding). JBA Insurability Please note that this assessment is produced by JBA Risk Management and is based entirely on their own modelled data for river flooding, coastal flooding and surface water flooding. As JBA have modelled this data in-house, there may be times when JBA's assessment of river and coastal flood risk will differ from that modelled by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. If you require further explanation of the insurability data, please contact Groundsure. Introduction to Detailed Findings All mapped features within this report are given an identification number. This number identifies the feature on the maps which precede the following data sections. All distances provided are in metres and directions are given as compass headings. Section Historical maps are a widely recognised source of information for investigating site history. Nevertheless, analysis of mapping at 1:10,560 and 1:10,000 scale will not always provide a complete site history. If you are concerned about the former uses of a site, we would advise additional analysis of planning records and/or more detailed historical mapping. Please note that the number of records identified relates to areas subject to potentially contaminative former activities and these do not necessarily correspond to the number of sites found within these areas. Section Systematic analysis of historical maps can highlight areas which, over time, have the potential to have been infilled with various materials. Such areas can relate to such features as ditches, ponds, clay pits, brickfields and quarries. Areas of infill do not always refer to landfill sites, although they may sometimes indicate the presence of such sites. Such areas are normally infilled with inert materials, although in some cases contaminative materials may have been used. Sections 1.3 to 1.6 Selected highly contaminative land uses have been extracted from 1,2,500 and 1,1,250 scale historical mapping. This database covers the majority of the UK from the first available map, but where areas of the UK are not covered it is indicated in the report as No Data Available. This indicates that no assessment of the risk from these features is included in the report. In this instance if you are still concerned about the former uses of a site, we would advise additional analysis of planning records and/or more detailed historical mapping. Section 1.7 Certain military installations were not noted on historic mapping for security reasons. Whilst not all military land is necessarily of concern, Groundsure has researched and digitised a number of Ordnance Factories and other military industrial features (e.g. Ordnance Depots, Munitions Testing Grounds) which may be of contaminative concern. This research was drawn from a number of different sources, and should not be regarded as a definitive or exhaustive database of potentially contaminative military installations. The boundaries of sites within this database have been estimated from the best evidence available to Groundsure at the time of compilation. Section 2- This information is gathered from a wide range of sources including the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales (Agency) and the British Geological Survey (BGS). Data supplied by Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales refers to waste management licences required by anyone involved in waste disposal under the Environmental Protection Act A survey by the BGS undertaken in 1972/3 provides data on some older landfill sites, which were not subject to this legislation. Section 3.1 The answer to this question is based on searches of current industrial data provided by PointX 11 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

29 Section 3.2 The answer to this question is based on searches of current and recent petrol stations provided by Catalist. Sections 3.3, 3.4, and 3.14 This information is supplied by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. Section 3.5, 3.13 and 3.15 This information is supplied by Local Authorities. Section 3.12 This information is supplied by the Health and Safety Executive. Section 5.1 The answer to this question is based upon a 50m search radius from the centre of the search location. This information is supplied by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. Sections 5.2 to 5.6 The answers to these questions are based upon a 250m search radius from the centre of the earch location. This information is supplied by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. Sections The answer to this question is based upon a 50m search radius from the centre of the search location. Section 6.1 The answer to this question is based upon information found within 50m of the search centre. Sections 6.2 and 6.4 These databases provide an indication of non-coal mining and natural ground cavities. They are used to provide an indication that activities that have the potential to cause ground instability issues are present in the general vicinity of the property. However the accuracy of the data is not sufficient to confirm if the property will be directly affected. Sections 6.5 and Systematic analysis of historical maps can highlight areas where either mining or underground workings have occurred in the past. The information is taken from features presented on historical maps which do not indicate the distance or direction which underground or mining workings extend beneath the surface. e.g features such as mine shafts only indicate the entrance to a mine, and by inference indicate the potential for underground features to extend outward from this point. Some features within this database may also relate to non-mining underground activities e.g.air shafts for underground railways. Section 8.1 and Section Provides information on records of Ofcom-registered mobile phone masts and mobile mast planning records up to 250m. Section 8.3 Please be aware that the findings contained within the overhead power transmission lines section is based upon information found within Ordnance Survey OpenData. 12 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

43 5.1 Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea (RoFRaS) What is the risk of flooding at the centre of the study site? Very Low What is the highest risk of flooding within 25m of the centre of the study site? Very Low The Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales RoFRaS database provides an indication of river and coastal flood risk at a national level on a 50m grid as used by many of the insurance companies. RoFRaS data is based on a 50m grid system, with the flood rating at the centre of the grid calculated and given below. The data considers the probability that the flood defences will overtop or breach, and the distance from the river or the sea. RoFRaS data for the study site indicates the property has a Very Low (less than 1 in 1000) chance of flooding in any given year. 5.2 Areas Benefiting from Flood Defences Are there any areas benefiting from Flood Defences within 250m of the study site? Guidance: These are areas that may benefit from the presence of major defences during a 1% river (fluvial) or 0.5% coastal flood event. These areas would flood if the defence were not present, but may not flood because the defence is present. Details of flood defences and any areas benefiting from these defences can be seen on the Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea Map. 5.3 Flood Defences Are there any flood defences within 250m of the study site? Guidance: This search consists only of flood defences present in the dataset provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. 5.4 Proposed Flood Defences Are there any Proposed Flood Defences within 250m of the study site? Guidance: This search consists only of proposed flood defences present in the dataset provided by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales. Please note that proposed flood defence schemes will not influence the current RoFRaS ratings for the site until they have been constructed. 5.5 Areas Used for Flood Storage Are there any areas used for Flood Storage within 250m of the study site? Database searched and no data found Flood Storage Areas are considered part of the functional floodplain, and are areas where water has to flow or be stored in times of flood. Technical Guidance to the National Planning Policy Framework states that only water-compatible development and essential infrastructure should be permitted within flood storage areas, and existing development within this area should be relocated to an area with a lower risk of flooding. Any relevant data is represented on the Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea Map.

44 Notes on RoFRaS data RoFRaS is an assessment of flood risk for England and Wales produced using local data and expertise. It shows the chance of flooding from rivers or the sea presented in categories taking account of flood defences and the condition those defences are in. The RoFRaS model uses local water level and flood defence data to model flood risk. It has divided England and Wales into 50m X 50m impact cells. Each cell has been assigned a flood risk likelihood from the categories below: Less than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) chance in any given year: Very Low Less than 1 in 100 (1%) but greater than or equal to 1 in 1000 (0.1%) chance in any given year: Low Less than 1 in 30 (3.3%) but greater than or equal to 1 in 100 (1%) chance in any given year: Medium Greater than or equal to 1 in 30 (3.3%) chance in any given year: High Notes on Existing Flood Defences Flood defences seek to reduce the risk of flooding and to safeguard life, protect property, sustain economic activity and the natural environment. Flood defences are designed to protect against flood events of a particular magnitude, expressed as risk in any one year. Notes on Proposed Flood Defences 'Number of Households to Benefit' illustrates the number of households that move from 'very significant' or 'significant' to 'moderate' or 'low' probability of flood risk bands if the proposed flood scheme is to be implemented This information is taken from the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales's database of Areas to Benefit from New and Reconditioned Flood Defences under the Medium Term Plan (MTP). The dataset contains funding allocation for the first financial year (from April). Funding for the following four financial years is not guaranteed, being only indicative, and will be reviewed annually. Projects within the Medium Term Plan qualify for inclusion in this dataset if: the investment leads to a change in the current standard of protection (change projects); the investment is a replacement or refurbishment in order to sustain the current standard of protection (sustain projects); the project has an initial construction budget of 100,000 or more; and the project is included within the first five years of the MTP. The data includes all the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales's projects over 100K that will change or sustain the standards of flood defence in England and Wales over the next 5 years. It also includes the equivalent schemes for all Local Authority and Internal Drainage Boards. The number of households and areas of land contributing to DEFRA's Outcome Measures (OM) are also attributed i.e. could benefit from major work on flood defences. These data also contain Intermittence Flood Maintenance Programmes that show the annual maintenance programme of work scheduled to be carried out by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales, Local Authority or Internal Drainage Board on flood defences. Data details routine maintenance as well as intermittent work that has been funded for the coming year. The data contains a start and end coordinate defining the relevant river section where work is planned. Information Warning Please note that the maps show the areas where investment is being made to reduce the flood and coastal erosion risk and are not detailed enough to account for individual addresses. Individual properties may not always face the same risk of flooding as the areas that surround them. Also, note that funding figures are indicative and any use or interpretation should account for future updates where annual values may change. Every possible care is taken to ensure that the maps reflect all the data possessed by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales and that they have applied their expert knowledge to create conclusions that are as reliable as possible. The Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales consider that they have created the maps as well as they can and so should not be liable if the maps by their nature are not as accurate as might be desired or are misused or misunderstood, despite their warnings. For this reason, they are not able to promise that the maps will always be accurate or completely up to date.

45 Flood Storage Areas Flood Storage Areas may also act as flood defences. A flood storage area may also be referred to as a balancing reservoir, storage basin or balancing pond. Its purpose is to attenuate an incoming flood peak to a flow level that can be accepted by the downstream channel. It may also delay the timing of a flood peak so that its volume is discharged over a longer time interval. A flood storage area may take the form of a wet or dry reservoir. A wet reservoir is a water storage facility in which storage can be effected by allowing water levels to rise during flood times. A dry reservoir is typically adjacent to a river and comprises an enclosed area that accepts water only at peak times. These areas are also referred to as Zone 3b or 'the functional floodplain' and has a 5% or greater chance of flooding in any given year, or is designed to flood in the event of an extreme (0.1%) flood or another probability which may be agreed between the Local Planning Authority and the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales, including water conveyance routes. Development within Flood Storage Areas is severely restricted. 5.6 Historic Flooding Events Has the site or any area within 250m of the site been subject to historic flooding as recorded by the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales? This database shows the individual footprint of every flood event recorded in the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales s national database on historic flood events. Please note this doesn t include records held by individual local offices. This data is used to understand where larger-scale flooding has occurred in the past and provides details as available. Absence of a historic flood event for an area does not mean that the area has never flooded, but only that it doesn t appear in the Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales national dataset. Equally, a record of a flood footprint in previous years does not mean that an area will flood again, and this information does not take account of flood management schemes and improved flood defences. Historic flooding events: Database searched and no data found. 5.7 JBA Surface (Pluvial) Water Flooding What is the risk of pluvial flooding at the centre of the study site? What is the highest risk of pluvial flooding within 25m of the centre of the study site? Negligible Negligible Guidance: The site or an area in close proximity has been assessed to be at Negligible risk of surface water (pluvial) flooding. This indicates that this area would be expected to be affected by surface water flooding in a 1 in 1000 year rainfall event to a depth of less than 0.1m. Notes on Surface water (Pluvial) Flooding data: JBA Risk Management surface water flood map identifies areas likely to flood following extreme rainfall events, i.e. land naturally vulnerable to surface water or pluvial flooding. This data set was produced by simulating 1 in 75 year, 1 in 200 year and 1 in 1000 year rainfall events. Modern urban drainage systems are typically built to cope with rainfall events between 1 in 20 and 1 in 30 years, though older ones may even flood in a 1 in 5 year rainstorm event. The model provides the maximum depth of flooding in each 5m cell of topographical mapping coverage. The maps include 7 bands indicating areas of increasing natural vulnerability to surface water flooding. These are: Less than 0.1m in a 1 in 1000 year rainfall event: Negligible Greater than 0.1m in a 1 in 1000 year rainfall event: Low Between 0.1m and 0.3m in a 1 in 200 year rainfall event: Low to Moderate Between 0.3m and 1m in a 1 in 200 year rainfall event: Moderate Greater than 1m in a 1 in 200 year rainfall event: Moderate to High Between 0.1m and 0.3m in a 1 in 75 year rainfall event: High Between 0.3m to 1m in a 1 in 75 year rainfall event: Significant Greater than 1m in a 1 in 75 year rainfall event: Highly Significant 5.8 Groundwater Flooding Susceptibility No What is the susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding in the search area based on the underlying geological conditions? Does this relate to Clearwater Flooding or Superficial Deposits Flooding? Potential for groundwater flooding at surface Superficial Deposits Flooding 28 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

46 Guidance: Where potential for groundwater flooding to occur at surface is indicated, this means that given the geological conditions in the area groundwater flooding hazard should be considered in all land-use planning decisions. It is recommended that other relevant information e.g. records of previous incidence of groundwater flooding, rainfall, property type, and land drainage information be investigated in order to establish relative, but not absolute, risk of groundwater flooding. Groundwater flooding is defined as the emergence of groundwater at the ground surface or the rising of groundwater into man-made ground under conditions where the normal range of groundwater levels is exceeded. The BGS Susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding hazard dataset identifies areas where geological conditions could enable groundwater flooding to occur and where groundwater may come close to the ground surface. The susceptibility data is suitable for use for regional or national planning purposes where the groundwater flooding information will be used along with a range of other relevant information to inform land-use planning decisions. It might also be used in conjunction with a large number of other factors, e.g. records of previous incidence of groundwater flooding, rainfall, property type, and land drainage information, to establish relative, but not absolute, risk of groundwater flooding at a resolution of greater than a few hundred metres. The susceptibility data should not be used on its own to make planning decisions at any scale, and, in particular, should not be used to inform planning decisions at the site scale. The susceptibility data cannot be used on its own to indicate risk of groundwater flooding. Notes on Groundwater Flooding The BGS Susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding hazard dataset identifies areas where geological conditions could enable groundwater flooding to occur and where groundwater may come close to the ground surface. Groundwater flooding is assessed on a fourfold scale: The area is not considered to be prone to groundwater flooding based on rock type. There is limited potential for groundwater flooding to occur and further relevant information should be considered to determine this assessment. There is potential for groundwater flooding of property situated below the surface such as basements and other below surface infrastructure. Further relevant information should be considered to determine whether groundwater flooding has previously occurred. There is potential for groundwater flooding to occur at the surface and groundwater flooding hazard should be considered in all land use planning decisions. Other relevant information should be considered to establish the risk of groundwater flooding to property. 5.9 Natural Ground Subsidence What is the potential for natural ground subsidence* within the search area? Moderate - High Guidance: The natural ground subsidence rating is obtained through the evaluation of six natural ground stability hazard datasets, which are supplied by the British Geological Survey (BGS). These datasets indicate the hazard posed by the occurrence of: Swell-Shrink Clay, Landslide, Compressible Ground, Collapsible Ground, Dissolution of Soluble Rocks and Running Sand. Many factors may contribute to ground subsidence problems. For instance, significant problems can arise in conurbations underlain by clay rich bedrock, such as over clay strata in the South East of England, or South Wales. Whilst surveyors are normally aware of local problem areas, data provided by the BGS can highlight areas where a significant potential for natural ground subsidence exists and which may need particular consideration. Where moderate - high potential is indicated, this means that there is the potential for natural ground movement to occur that may be of concern. Such ground movement could cause damage to domestic or other properties. However, properties designed, constructed and maintained in compliance with modern building regulations should be unaffected by most minor subsidence. Therefore, if thinking of buying a property in the area, you should seek professional advice from a professional property surveyor and also look at the property yourself in more detail to look for any signs of existing damage. If you already own a property in the area, and you think natural ground movement may have damaged it, you should contact your insurance company for advice. You should also take professional advice before changing the ground in any way, for example, by planting or removing trees, changing drainage or carrying out building work. *The term Subsidence refers to ground movement that could cause damage to foundations in domestic or other properties Radon Affected Areas 29 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

47 Is the property in a radon Affected Area as defined by Public Health England (PHE) and if so what percentage of homes are above the Action Level? The property is in a Radon Affected Area, as between 1 and 3% of properties are above the Action Level Guidance: Public Health England (PHE) recommends a radon 'Action Level' of 200 becquerels per cubic metre for the annual average of the radon gas concentration in a home. Where 1% or more of homes are estimated to exceed the Action Level (i.e. are in an Intermediate or Higher probability radon area) the area should be regarded as a radon Affected Area. This report informs you whether the property is in a radon Affected Area and the percentage of homes that are estimated to be at or above the radon Action Level. This does not necessarily mean there is a radon problem in the property; the only way to find out whether it is above or below the Action Level is to carry out a radon measurement in an existing property. PHE advises that radon gas should be measured in all properties within radon Affected Areas and that homes with radon levels above the Action Level (200 Bq m-3) should be remediated, and when achievable to below the Target Level of 100 Bq m-3. Householders with levels between the Target Level and Action Level should seriously consider reducing their radon level, especially if they are at greater risk, such as if they are current or ex smokers. Whether or not a home is in fact above or below the Action Level or Target Level can only be established by having the building tested. PHE provides a radon testing service which can be accessed at The information in this report provides an answer to one of the standard legal enquiries on house purchase in England and Wales, known as CON29 Standard Enquiry of Local Authority (part 1); 3.13 Radon Gas: Location of the Property in a Radon Affected Area. If you are buying a currently occupied property in a Radon Affected Area, you should ask the present owner whether radon levels have been measured in the property. If they have, ask whether the results were above the Radon Action Level and if so, whether remedial measures were installed, radon levels were re-tested, and the results of re-testing confirmed the effectiveness of the measures. Further information on radon is available from PHE or Radon Protective Measures Is the property in an area where radon protection measures are required for new properties or extensions to existing ones as described in publication BR211 by the Building Research Establishment? No radon protective measures are necessary Combined Radon Guidance: Radon is a colourless, odourless radioactive gas which is present in all areas of the United Kingdom, usually at levels that pose a negligible risk to homebuyers. However, in some areas levels of radon are much higher than in others, and in these cases it can pose a health risk. The data supplied by the Public Health England (PHE) and the British Geological Survey (BGS) is not able to determine exact Radon levels, as this information can only be obtained through site-specific, in-situ testing. As 1-3% of properties in the area may be radon affected PHE recommend carrying out a site-specific radon assessment. This costs including VAT and the results are confidential to the client. Please contact PHE ( ) for further information and advice. Notes on Radon RISKS OF RADON Radon is a radioactive gas which occurs naturally. It has no taste, smell or colour. Special devices are needed to measure it. Radon comes out of the ground. Outdoors, it is diluted to very low levels. However, in some cases the radon level indoors can build up to high concentrations. In such cases, it does pose a serious risk to health. ACTION LEVEL FOR RADON Public Health England (PHE) recommends that radon levels should be reduced in homes where the average is more than 200 becquerels per cubic metre of air (Bq m-3). This recommendation has been endorsed by the Government. This Action Level refers to the annual average concentration in a home, so radon measurements are carried out with two detectors (in a bedroom and living room) over three months, to average out short-term fluctuations. RADON AFFECTED AREAS PHE defines radon Affected Areas as those with a 1% probability or more of a home having radon above the Action Level. PHE recommends that people in Affected Areas should test their homes for radon. 30 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

48 HOW TO REDUCE RADON LEVELS PHE advises that radon gas should be measured in all properties within radon Affected Areas and that homes with radon levels above the Action Level (200 Bq m-3) should be remediated, preferably to below the Target Level of 100 Bq m-3. Householders with levels between the Target Level and Action Level should seriously consider reducing their radon level, especially if they are at greater risk, such as if they are current or ex smokers. Indoor radon levels can usually be substantially reduced at a cost comparable to many home improvements, such as replacing carpets. Details of methods of reducing radon levels are given on the Building Research Establishment Website. 31 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

49 6. Mining 6.1 Coal Authority Coal Mining Records Is the property within an area which may be affected by past, present or proposed underground coal mining? Guidance: None required. 6.2 BGS Non-Coal Mining Hazards What is the potential for undermining as a result of underground mineral extraction, excluding coal and minerals extracted as a consequence of coal mining? No Highly Unlikely The following non-coal mining information is provided by the BGS: Distance (m) Direction Name Commodity Assessment of likelihood 0 on site Not available Vein Mineral Localised small scale underground mining may have occurred. Potential for difficult ground conditions are unlikely or localised and are at a level where they need not be considered Guidance: The study site lies in an area where hazards because of underground mine workings may occur but are highly unlikely. The rock types present in these areas are such that small mineral veins may be present on which it is possible that small scale mining has been undertaken and/or it is possible that limited underground extraction of other materials may have occurred. All such occurrences are likely to be of minor localised extent and infrequent. It should be noted, however, that there is always the possibility of the existence of other sub-surface excavations, such as wells, cess pits, follies, air raid shelters/bunkers and other military structures etc. that could affect surface ground stability but which are outside the scope of this dataset. The mining hazard data (not including coal) layer draws together a diverse range of material derived from geology, which constrains distribution, supplemented by literature searches for historic locations and expert knowledge to assemble, interpret, and organise this information. Mining of coal is specifically excluded from this data set and information on Coal Mining areas can be found in the Coal Authority Coal Mining Records section above. The data provides an assessment of the likelihood that past underground mining may have occurred in the area. It does not consider the depth of the extraction nor whether any remediation has previously been undertaken. Where extraction of such minerals has taken place in workings close to the surface (meaning to approximately 50m depth) the workings can pose a subsidence risk because they sometimes cause surface collapse. Old mine shafts and other mine openings in such areas can also lead to unexpected surface collapse. The data provided by the British Geological Survey (BGS) are rated on a five point scale ranging from Rare, through Highly unlikely, Unlikely and Likely to Highly Likely that indicate how likely it is that past underground mining activities may have occurred. 6.3 Mining Cavities Is the site located in an area of mining cavities? Yes Guidance: The following Mining Cavities information is provided by Peter Brett Associates. There are records within 250m of the site. Areas that are associated with mining cavities may cause ground stability problems such as subsidence, surface collapses, mass movement and landslides etc, depending on the style of mining used. Unless suitable information is available confirming that suitable ground engineering techniques have been used at the site, it would be prudent to contact the Local Authority Planning department to confirm that suitable design measures were implemented at the site during construction.

54 9. Guide to our Professional Assessment Introduction This report is designed for residential conveyancers and their clients and satisfies standard environmental due diligence enquiries, recommended by the Law Society. This information is not always covered by Standard Con 29 Enquiries made to Local Authorities. Purpose of this Assessment As part of this report Groundsure provide a professional assessment of the risks posed by key environmental information which could lead to the property being designated as Contaminated Land as defined under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act This assessment is based on the following data: 1 Historical land use (compiled from 1:10,000 1:10,560 maps) 2 Additional Information Historical land use (compiled from 1:1,250 1:2,500 maps) for selected areas. 3 Landfill and waste transfer/treatment or disposal sites (including scrap yards) 4 Current industrial uses (as defined by PointX data) 5 Catalist Petrol Station 6 Part A(1), Part A(2) and Part B Authorisations 7 Control of Major Accident Hazards Sites (COMAH) and Notification of Installations Handling Hazardous Substances (NIHHS) 8 Dangerous Substances Inventory Releases (DSI) 9 Radioactive Substance Authorisations (RAS) 10 Discharge and Red List Discharge Consent 11 Sites Determined as Contaminated Land under Part 2A EPA Environment Agency/Natural Resources Wales Recorded Pollution Incidents 13 Historic Military / Ordnance Sites 14 Planning Hazardous Substance Consents From this information Groundsure provide a statement regarding the likely designation of the property under Part 2A of EPA 1990 and the level of risk associated with the property is either Passed or In Need of Further Assessment. If the site is In Need of Further Assessment it does not necessarily mean that the site is unsuitable for purchase, but only that further assessment of the risk associated with the site is required. When a site is In Need of Further Assessment then the practitioner may, if required, discuss the case with one of the Groundsure consultants. Where a site is In Need of Further Assessment Groundsure will, on request, attempt to arrange appropriate environmental insurance. Method Statement In assessing specific site risk, Groundsure follows principles used extensively throughout the environmental consultancy sector. Our system looks at the potential for specific industries to have generated residual contamination and for this contamination to remain at a site, or to have migrated to neighbouring sites. Sites are scored based on this system and if a site scores highly it indicates a high level of risk. Limitations of the Study This screening process reviews historical mapping and a range of current databases. The historical land use database reviewed for this study does NOT include 1:2,500 or 1:1,250 scale maps except for Groundsure's additional information database of selected features namely tanks, energy features, petrol filling stations and garages. This additional information database covers the majority of the UK, but not all. Where no assessment has been made No Data Available is presented in the report. Where 1:2,500 or 1:1,250 scale maps are utilised all relevant and available map epochs to Groundsure are used. Additionally, this review does NOT include specific enquiries to the Local Authority who may hold additional information and it does NOT include a site visit/inspection. Your attention is drawn to the Terms and Conditions of Groundsure Limited under which this service is provided. Remediation This report is covered by Groundsure's remediation contribution. For the purpose of this condition, Claimant shall mean one of: (a) the Beneficiary, (b) the purchaser of the site from the Beneficiary or (c) the funder of (a) or (b) as applicable. This condition shall apply solely to Groundsure Homebuyers, Homescreen, Enviroplus, Enviro Full Flood & Planning, Enviro All-in-one and Home Environmental reports with Passed rather than In Need of Further Assessment statuses. 37 If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our helpline on quoting reference: FPLY-GS

55 Groundsure may, at its sole discretion without any admission of liability, make a contribution to the Claimant towards the costs of any clean up works required to be carried out under a notice served on a Claimant in respect of a site under Part II (A) Environmental Protection Act 1990 ( Remediation Notice ) on the terms of this condition ( Clean up Award ).

74 NOTES - TO ACCOMPANY THE QUESTIONS The information in the following pages is provided in addition to the responses already provided and to answer any general questions you may have about the content of this report. Notes to accompany the drainage and water questions a. The Company is not generally responsible for rivers, watercourses, ponds, culverts or highway drains. If any of these are shown on the copy extract they are shown for information only. b. The section 104 sewer record is not an as-constructed record. It is recommended that these details are checked with the developer. c. Assets other than public sewers may be shown on the copy extract, for information only. d. The Company is not responsible for private supply pipes connecting the property to the public water main and does not hold details of these. These may pass through land outside of the control of the seller, the buyer may wish to investigate whether separate rights or easements are needed for their inspection, repair or renewal. e. An extract from the public sewer map is enclosed. This will show all known public sewers in the vicinity of the property and you should be able to estimate the likely length and route of any private drains and/or sewers connecting the property to the public sewerage system. f. If foul water does not drain to the public sewerage system the property may have private facilities in the form of a cesspit, septic tank or other type of treatment plant. g. In some cases, company records do not distinguish between foul and surface water connections to the public sewerage system. If on inspection the buyer finds that the property is not connected for surface water drainage the property may be eligible for a rebate of the surface water drainage charge. Details can be obtained from the Company. h. Where the property is part of a very recent or ongoing development and the sewers are not the subject of an adoption application, intended recipients should consult with the developer to ascertain the extent of private drains and sewers for which they will hold maintenance and renewal liabilities. i. Final adoption is subject to the developer complying with the terms of the adoption agreement under S104 of the Water Industry Act j. Where the property is part of an established development it would not normally be subject to an adoption agreement under S104 of the Water Industry Act k. The boundary of the property has been determined by reference to the Ordnance Survey record. l. The presence of a public sewer running within the boundary of the property may restrict further development. The Company has a statutory right of access to carry out works on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the Company or its contractors needing to enter the property to carry out work. m. The presence of a public sewer within 100 feet (approx. 30 metres) of the building(s) within the property can result in the local authority requiring a property to be connected to a public sewer. n. The measure is estimated from the centre of the property or land shown on the Ordnance Survey record. o. Assets other than vested water mains may be shown on the copy extract, for information purposes only. p. The Company is not responsible for the drains and sewers which connect the property to the public sewerage system, and does not hold details of these. The current property owner will normally have sole responsibility for the private drains serving the property and may have shared responsibility with other users if the property is served by a private sewer. These may pass through land outside of the control of the seller, the intended recipient may wish to investigate whether separate rights or easements are needed for their inspection, repair or renewal. q. If an extract of the public water main record is enclosed, this will show known public water mains in the vicinity of the property. It should be possible to estimate the likely length and route of any private water supply pipe connecting the property to the public water network r. The presence of a vested water main within the boundary of the property may restrict further development within it. The Company has a statutory right of access to carry out works on its assets, subject to notice. This may result in employees of the Company or its contractors needing to enter the property to carry out work. s. Metered charges will apply where a buyer makes a change of use of the property or where the buyer uses water for:- i. Watering the garden other than by hand, ii. Automatically replenishing a pond or swimming pool >10,000 litres iii. A bath with capacity >230 litres iv. A reverse osmosis unit. t. Water and Sewerage companies full charges are set out in their charges schemes which are available from the company free of charge upon request. u. Where a property is part of a very recent or ongoing development and the water mains are not the subject of an adoption application, intended recipients should consult with the developer to ascertain the extent of private water pipes for which they may become responsible. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 13 of 21

75 NOTES - TO ACCOMPANY THE QUESTIONS v. The Water Industry Act, 1991 section 150, the Water Resale Order 2001 provides protection for people who buy their water or sewerage services from a person or company instead of directly from a Water or Sewerage Undertaker. Details of this are available from the Office of Water Services (OFWAT): w. Information on the location of water meters is indicative only. Customers without water meters who may wish to consider this method of charging should contact South West Water Metering Services Team. x. A sewer is overloaded when the flow from a storm is unable to pass through it due to a permanent problem (e.g.: flat gradient or small diameter). Flooding as a result of temporary problems such as blockages, siltation, collapses and equipment or operational failures are excluded. At Risk properties are those that the sewerage Undertaker is required to include in the Regulatory Register which is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services. Properties may be at risk of flooding but not included in the register where flooding incidents have not been reported to the Sewerage Undertaker. It should be noted that flooding can occur from private sewers and drains which are not the responsibility of the Sewerage Undertaker. This report excludes flooding from private sewers and drains and the sewerage Undertaker makes no comment upon this matter. y. Low Water Pressure means water pressure below the regulatory level which is the minimum pressure when demand on the system is not abnormal. The Water Undertakers are required to include in the Regulatory register, that is reported annually to the Director General of Water Services (OFWAT), properties receiving pressure below the reference level, provided that allowable exclusions do not apply (for example: temporary one-off events which cause temporary loss of pressure). The reference level of service is a flow of 9 litres per minute at a pressure of 10 metres head. This is measured on the customers side of the main stop tap / meter. Properties supplied in common with other properties through a single service pipe should have their reference levels as BS6700, or similar information held in the Institute of Plumbing handbook. z. Water Undertakers have a duty to provide wholesome water that meets the standards of the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations Water quality is normally tested at the tap used for domestic consumption (normally in the kitchen), however the householder is responsible for any deterioration in quality that is a result of the domestic network and plumbing arrangements within the property that results in the standards not being met. Data collected by the Water Undertaker is subject to external review by the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) and by local and health authorities. If you require any further advice regarding failures in water quality standards, please see Q.12 for contact details. Authorised departures are not permitted if the extent of the departure from the standard is likely to constitute a potential danger to human health. aa. The nearest sewage treatment works will not always be the sewage works serving the catchment within which the property is situated, i.e. the property may not necessarily drain to this works. It should be noted that there may be a private sewage treatment works closer to the property than the public one identified here. The Sewerage Undertaker is unable to comment on the efficiency or odour problems which may arise from such private treatment works. bb. Buildings or extensions erected over a sewer in contravention of building controls may have to be removed or altered. From the 1st October 2011 private sewers, disposal mains and lateral drains were transferred into public ownership and the sewerage undertaker may not have been approved or consulted about any plans to erect a building or extension on the property over or in the vicinity of these. cc. From the 1st October 2011 there may be additional lateral drains and/or public sewers which are not recorded on the public sewer map but are also within metres (100 feet) of a building within the property. dd. A sewer is "overloaded" when the flow from a storm is unable to pass through it due to a permanent problem (e.g. flat gradient, small diameter). Flooding as a result of temporary problems such as blockages, siltation, collapses and equipment or operational failures are excluded. ee. "Internal flooding" from public sewers is defined as flooding which enters a building or passes below a suspended floor. For reporting purposes buildings are restricted to those normally occupied and used for residential, public, commercial, business or industrial purposes. ff. At Risk properties are those that the Sewerage Undertaker is required to include in the Regulatory Register that is reported annually to the Director General of Water services. These are defined as properties that have suffered or are likely to suffer internal flooding from public foul, combined or surface water sewers due to overloading of the sewerage system more frequently than the relevant reference period (either once or twice in ten years) as determined by the Sewerage Undertaker's reporting procedure. Flooding as a result of storm events proven to be exceptional and beyond the reference period of one in ten years are not included on the At Risk register. Properties may be at risk of flooding but not included on the Register where flooding incidents have not been reported to the Sewerage Undertaker. gg. It should be noted that flooding can occur from private sewers and drains which are not the responsibility of the Sewerage Undertaker. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 14 of 21

76 NOTES - TO ACCOMPANY THE QUESTIONS hh. If the property was constructed after 1st July 2011 any sewers and/or lateral drain within the boundary of the property are the responsibility of the householder. ii. For reporting purposes buildings are restricted to those normally occupied and used for residential, public, commercial, business or industrial purposes. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 15 of 21

77 COMMON DRAINAGE & SUPPLY TERMS Adoption of sewers Transfers to the sewerage undertaker the ownership of sewers and the legal obligation for meeting the cost of their maintenance and improvement to meet increasingly stringent environmental standards. Sewerage Undertaker Is a limited company succeeding the former water authority and appointed by the Secretary of State to carry out the duties as signed to it by statute. These include the provision, maintenance and improvement of a system of sewers and sewage treatment works. Building Over Agreement / Consent No building is permitted over public sewers or water mains without a special agreement such as a building-over agreement. Any such building might cause damage and would restrict of interfere with the undertakers rights of access for inspection, repair, maintenance or renewal of their asset. In some circumstances, agreement may be allowed by the issue of consent rather than by formal agreement. Cesspool / Cesspit A sealed tank having no out let, used for the storage of sewerage. The Cesspool must be emptied regularly and running costs can be substantial. Combined Sewer A sewer carrying both foul water as well as surface water. Conveyancing 29 Form, Or Con29 A standard form of conveyancing enquiry, normally addressed to the local authority, published by the Solicitors Law Stationery Society Limited. The Conveyancing 29 form asks standard questions on such issues as Planning, Development, Highways, Smoke Control Orders, etc. It also asks about drainage. Since 1989, the sewerage undertakers have been responsible for maintaining the records of public sewers. Official Local Authority searches (CON29R/LLC) are available from Source for Searches. Easements In the context of this document, an easement is a legal restriction on the activities which land owners can undertake on or above an asset such as a trunk water main. In particular, tree planting and building are generally prohibited. Easement s have been used when extra powers are deemed to be required by the water undertaker to protect the asset. Foul Sewer A sewer used to transport mainly foul sewerage to a treatment works. It may also contain some surface water from rainfall, when it might be termed a combined sewer. Lateral Drains Pre-1936 Sewers The Public Health Act of 1936 set out a range of responsibilities for the operation and maintenance of sewerage system but the Act recognised that little was known about the existing sewer network. Some had been maintained by private individuals and others by local authorities. Some of the costs had been re-charged to the owners, and the location of all these early sewers had not been surveyed and was unknown. The Act acknowledged the different status of these early sewers and made different provisions in respect of them. Private Drain A sewer in private owner ship draining only one property. If there is no cesspool or private treatment works, the drain usually connects with a private or public sewer. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 16 of 21

78 COMMON DRAINAGE & SUPPLY TERMS Private Sewage Treatment Plant Generally a small treatment works (which could be a septic tank) owned and operated by a community, hotel or household. Treatment plant s should conform to the same operational and environmental standards applied to sewage works operated by the water company. Accordingly, the running costs for small plants can be substantial and as environmental standards are raised there may be a need for additional capital investment. Private Water Supplies Where a property has no connection to the water mains, a suitable private spring or surface water source may be used. This may require extensive treatment to make the supplies safe and will be subject to examination and control by the local environmental health officer. Approval under the Building Act 1984 for new building work for domestic properties will not be granted unless adequate water supplies and drainage facilities are available. Public Sewer A sewer vested in and maintained by the sewerage undertaker. Members of the public generally have the statutory right to connect into and use the public sewer on offering payment of sewerage charges. Rising Mains / Pumping Mains These are pipes carrying untreated sewage pumped under pressure. There is no right of connection into them. Section 102 Declaration A sewerage under taker may make, or may be asked to make, a declaration that sewer or sewerage disposal works already in existence will be adopted and maintained at public expense from a particular date. Section 104 Agreement An agreement made between an housing developer and the sewerage under taker under Sect ion 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991, for the adoption of sewers the developer intends to build to serve the new houses. A bond to guarantee proper performance often supports the agreement by the developer of his obligations under the agreement. Such sewers are often required to be constructed to a particular standard before adoption can take place. Septic Tank A settlement chamber, which provides treatment to sewage and drainage waters. Overflow from the tank goes to a soak-away or drainage field or occasionally to a sewer. Septic tanks are un-powered. Properties operating them are responsible for the operation, maintenance and occasional emptying of the chamber. Septic tanks function excellently in well drained land. It is becoming less acceptable to operate a septic tank in low- lying land, particularly near rivers and streams. Any pollution problems precipitated by poorly performing septic tanks may mean they need to be decommissioned, and connections to the public sewer network need to be undertaken. Sludge Main A pressurised pipe carrying treated or partially treated sewerage sludge. Soak-away or drainage field Buried pipes or aggregates that allow treated effluents or surface waters to disperse. They are owned and maintained by the property owner. Surface water sewer A sewer used only for the transport of uncontaminated surface water or rainwater in an area where separate sewerage systems have been provided. This may discharge safely to a local watercourse or may combine with the foul sewerage system (to form a combined sewer) for treatment with the foul flows. Water service company A provider of sewerage and possibly water services in an area. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 17 of 21

79 REQUIREMENTS Requirements to be met by persons carrying out works near to water mains and sewers. 1. The precise position of water mains and sewers must be ascertained by hand digging trial holes after first contacting South West Water, who will give such information as is available regarding the general location of the mains and sewer in the area. No liability is accepted for the accuracy of any information given as to the position or existence of water mains and sewers. In particular, service pipes and drainage connection are not generally shown on mains records, but their presence should be anticipated and precautions taken to avoid damage. 2. Notices of intent must be given to South West Water before any works are carried out in the vicinity, except in cases of emergency when our Operations Centre should be contacted as soon as possible. 3. Unless prior written approval has been obtained, mechanical excavation may not be permitted around, or within, 3 meters of the water main or sewer. Excavation may be necessary by hand. 4. Concrete haunches or surrounds to sewers must not be disturbed without prior written consent from South West Water. 5. Before backfilling, the mains and sewers will be inspected and any flaws or damage to the pipe or wrapping, if found, will be repaired by South West Water. All such flaws or damage must be immediately reported to the Company as soon as they are discovered. The carrying out of such repairs by South West Water shall not affect the question of liability, should any damage found to have resulted from the acts of those undertaking the works, their contractors, servants or agents. 6. Approved backfill will be used immediately around or over the ma ins and sewers to a minimum cover of 300mm and the remainder of the backfill shall be to the appropriate Highways Authority Specification for the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways. 7. Both the existing main or sewer and the new works shall be suitably supported to prevent future settlement and any subsequent damage to equipment. 8. Ground adjacent to concrete thrust blocks supporting the main(s) and sewer(s) must not be disturbed. 9. Adequate support must be given to all water mains and sewers where these are likely to be undermined, and to all trenches in the vicinity of these, during the process of the works. 10. No apparatus shall be laid on or over any land within 300mm measured horizontally from any part of a water main or sewer or other apparatus belonging to the Company. Provided always that this cause shall not prevent any pipe, cable or conducting medium being laid at an angle of between 45 and 90 degrees across the line of the Company s apparatus, with a vertical clearance in excess of 300mm. In exceptional circumstances this clause may be varied or deleted with the prior written consent from South West Water. 11. South West Water must be consulted before any work representing an increased risk to the integrity of the mains or sewers (e.g., piling, using explosives, thrust boring, pipe bursting etc.) is carried out. 12. Facilities for inspecting all work carried out shall be given to South West Water with adequate notice. GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 18 of 21

80 DEVELOPMENT & TREE PLANTING Development and Tree Planting adjacent to pipelines: Guidance for landowners In accordance with the provisions of Clause 26 of South West Water s Code of Practice, you are advised that in order to maintain adequate future access to the pipeline and to avoid interference with it, it is necessary to ensure that the following guidelines are observed: 1. Buildings And Permanent Structures Clear working strip: A clear working strip along the pipe is required between buildings and permanent structures and this must be:- Pipes up to 150mm diameter Pipes mm diameter Pipes 601mm diameter and over 6.0 metres 7.0 metres 9.0 metres If a building or permanent structure is planned within these limits please contact our Development Planning team as Build Over consent may be required. Development Planning devplan@southwestwater.co.uk. Proximity of buildings: No buildings or permanent structures should be placed within 2 metres of pipes below 300mm in diameter or within 3.5 metres of pipes of 300mm or over in diameter (distances measured from the centre of the pipe), and in addition, buildings and permanent structures must be constructed so as to ensure that no additional loads are transmitted to the pipe. (N.B: Pipe sizes refer to the internal diameter / bore of the pipe). 2. Trees And Shrubs Roots can damage pipelines over time and extensive root systems will limit access to the pipeline in breach of the Company s right to access for repair or replacement. As a rule of thumb, the root spread of a tree is approximately the same as its eventual canopy spread. To help you avoid damage or interference to the pipeline, the Company suggests the following guidelines: No large or forest trees should be planted with 7 metres of the pipeline (examples include Oak, Ash, Beech, Douglas Fir, Sitka Spruce etc.) Medium to small sized trees should always be planted in such a way as to ensure that the eventual root spread reaches no closer than 1 metre of the pipeline, in practice, if trees are planted a distance of 5 metres away from the pipeline, this should be sufficient. Bushes and shrubs should never be planted closer than 2 metres from the pipeline. Closer than 2 metres either side of the pipeline may be planted with hedge plants and ground cover only. The measurements and distances set out are for guidance only and there will always be exception, for example: Poplars and Willows, which have a particularly invasive root system. If you are unsure of any individual case, then specialist advice should always be sought prior to planting. The guidelines set out above are based on the Company s standard access requirements for its apparatus. If, for engineering reasons, the distances set out need to be varied at particular locations, you will be advised of this before compensation for works is finalised. If you need to know the precise underground location of a new water main / sewer after its installation, please contact any of the Company s local offices, and Company staff will be pleased to mark out the position of the pipeline within your land. If the Company finds any infringement of its legal rights of access, or any damage being caused to the pipeline, the Company reserves the right to take appropriate action to ensure that there is no interference with its statutory apparatus. IN THE EVENT OF A LEAK OR PIPE COLLAPSE PLEASE CONTACT SOUTH WEST WATER IMMEDIATELY ON (24 HOURS) GIS/SS/1PE/ /4 Page 19 of 21

82 COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE The Law Society recommends a CON29DW Residential Drainage and Water enquiry on all occasions where a property is being sold.

No-one involved in the production of this report has any relationship with any party involved in the sale of the property. The service is only available for properties in England and Wales. The data used to identify potential risk is derived from an academic study of historical parish boundaries and the relevant documentation pertaining to potential chancel repair liability held at the National Archive. No record of risk means: a) no record of risk is held by The National Archives within the relevant Inland Revenue Indices for the subject parish; b) the property is within a parish with evidence of risk but the property is situated within a tithe district that has no risk per the records described above; c) the record held by the National Archive details that the total liability is held by the Church Commissioners, Cathedrals and/or educational establishments.

85 ChancelCheck Guidance Note Chancel Repair Liability Background Chancel repair liability is a medieval anomaly whereby the Church of England and Wales was granted powers to charge those owning rectorial land for the upkeep of the chancel of some Parish Churches. Chancel repair liability affects millions of acres in England and Wales and is still deemed a usual and necessary search by conveyancers. Chancel repair liability can still be attached to land regardless of whether or not the liability is noted against the title, making the prospective risk unquantifiable. The Church continues to actively register their interest, to protect their right to charge for chancel repair liability in perpetuity. ChancelCheck Identifies the Problem ChancelCheck Certificate Report ChancelCheck is an online, low cost ( 20 + VAT) screening report designed to inform the Homebuyer of any potential chancel repair liability. It is in accordance with the Conveyancing and CML Handbooks. If the area of land selected falls within a parish that does not have the ability to claim for chancel repair liability, the search will be returned as a Certificate. If the area of land selected falls within a parish that has the ability to claim for chancel repair liability, a potential liability will be returned and the search will come back as a Report. Where an issue has been identified, ChancelSure is available to cover the potential risk. ChancelSure Offers a Solution NB. ChancelCheck does not publish the relevant parish name to deter contacting the Church. Doing so will put the Church on notice of a potential liability and may lead to negating insurance cover. ChancelSure ChancelSure is the market leading chancel repair indemnity product, providing comprehensive protection and security for the homeowner where a potential chancel liability has been identified.
