SITE DESCRIP­TION, PRO­POS­AL AND HISTORY

Site Descrip­tion

1. The applic­a­tion site is an act­ive land­fill and recyc­ling centre run by High­land Coun­cil, loc­ated imme­di­ately north of Aviemore with­in the area known as Gran­ish. The A95 lies approx­im­ately Ikm to the west of the site and the main rail­way line lies to the east. Access to the site is via a shared lane off the east­ern side of the B9152.

2. To the north of the site is an act­ive sand and gravel quarry com­mer­cial busi­ness; to the south of the site are the sew­er­age works and a water treat­ment plant and a Go- Kart­ing business.

3. The land­fill cov­ers most of the site area with a site office, weigh­bridge, waste con­tain­ers and areas of hard­stand­ing for park­ing loc­ated with­in the south-west­ern corner of the site.

Pro­pos­al

1. The draw­ings and doc­u­ments asso­ci­ated with this applic­a­tion are lis­ted below and are avail­able on the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity web­site unless noted otherwise:

1. The applic­a­tion seeks to vary con­di­tion one attached to plan­ning per­mis­sion ref. 08/0111/FULBS. This applic­a­tion gran­ted per­mis­sion for the ​“exten­sion of time lim­its on use of land for waste dis­pos­al” at the Land­fill site at Gran­ish. Con­di­tion one

---

CAIRNGORMS NATION­AL PARK AUTHOR­ITY Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Item 5 20/03/2020

1. attached to that per­mis­sion states: ​“The use of the land, togeth­er with all engin­eer­ing, build­ing, and oth­er oper­a­tions, and sub­sequent man­age­ment and oper­a­tion of the facil­it­ies hereby approved, shall at all times be car­ried out in accord­ance with applic­a­tion unless expressly approved oth­er­wise by the Plan­ning Author­ity. Land­fill dis­pos­al shall cease not later than 31 March 2020 unless oth­er­wise agreed by the Plan­ning Authority.

The amend­ment pro­posed to the stated con­di­tion is to extend the time peri­od in which land­filling may take place to 31 March 2023 to ensure that the void space remain­ing with­in the site is util­ised effectively.

1. Plans of the pro­pos­al are included at Appendix I.

His­tory

1. The applic­a­tion has a his­tor­ic use as a land­fill and waste dis­pos­al site and has been the sub­ject of two applic­a­tions in recent years. These are out­lined below.

2. As stated above, in 2008 per­mis­sion was gran­ted for the exten­sion of the time lim­its for the use of the land­fill at Gran­ish until 31 march 2020. Per­mis­sion was gran­ted on 04 June 2008 and was sub­ject to a num­ber of plan­ning conditions.

3. More recently, plan­ning per­mis­sion was gran­ted on 12 Novem­ber 2019 by High­land Coun­cil, for the erec­tion of a waste trans­fer sta­tion for recyc­lable mater­i­als, sit­ing of a wel­fare unit, sep­tic tank and asso­ci­ated car parking.

Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2020

1. The emer­ging Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan (“Pro­posed Plan”), which will cov­er the peri­od of 2020 – 2025, is cur­rently being pro­gressed. The pro­posed plan has been through a pub­lic con­sulta­tion pro­cess and the form­al response have been assessed and sub­mit­ted along with all oth­er rel­ev­ant mater­i­als to Scot­tish Min­is­ters for exam­in­a­tion. As the exam­in­a­tion of the Pro­posed Plan is cur­rently under­way, the Pro­posed Plan and its con­tents cur­rently carry lim­ited weight.

CON­SULTA­TIONS

Sum­mary of the main issues raised by consultees:

1. Scot­tish Envir­on­ment Pro­tec­tion Agency (SEPA) has no objec­tion to the applic­a­tion, not­ing that the exist­ing plan­ning per­mis­sion requires land­fill dis­pos­al to cease by 31 March 2020 with land­scap­ing to be car­ried out not later than the spring 2021 plant­ing sea­son and this applic­a­tion seeks to extend the time peri­od in which land­filling may take place to 31 March 2023 to ensure that the void space remain­ing with­in the site is util­ised effect­ively. SEPA note they are work­ing with the oper­at­or to address reg­u­lat­ory require­ments in respect of the proposal.

2. High­land Coun­cil Trans­port Plan­ning Team con­firms that they have no objec­tion to this applic­a­tion for an exten­sion of time.

3. High­land Coun­cil Envir­on­ment­al Health Officer was con­sul­ted on the applic­a­tion but has not provided any spe­cif­ic comments.

CAIRNGORMS NATION­AL PARK AUTHOR­ITY Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Item 5 20/03/2020

1. Aviemore Com­munity Coun­cil sup­ports the applic­a­tion not­ing that it is a sens­ible and sus­tain­able use of the exist­ing land­fill site.

REP­RES­ENT­A­TIONS

1. The applic­a­tion has been advert­ised for a peri­od of 21 days and no let­ters of pub­lic rep­res­ent­a­tion have been received.

APPRAIS­AL

1. The issues that require con­sid­er­a­tion in rela­tion to this applic­a­tion are wheth­er the vari­ation of the con­di­tion to extend the oper­a­tion time of land­fill on site is con­sidered accept­able by way of its prin­ciple, and its impact on the wider area.

Prin­ciple

1. Policy 10: Resources of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015, under sub-policy 8: Land­fill, states that there will be a pre­sump­tion again the devel­op­ment of new land­fill sites and for amend­ments to or exten­sions of exist­ing land­fill sites unless the development:

a. includes appro­pri­ate meas­ures for site res­tor­a­tion; and b. has fully con­sidered site selec­tion to ensure rein­state­ment of derel­ict or despoiled land; and c. includes the prin­ciples of self-suf­fi­ciency in terms of capa­city and loc­a­tion; ad d. provides on-site facil­it­ies to allow recycling/​waste treatment.

1. The site has been oper­at­ing as an act­ive waste dis­pos­al unit, togeth­er with its recyc­ling centre since its ori­gin­al per­mis­sion which was sub­sequently exten­ded in 2008. The prin­ciples of those oper­a­tions were there­fore estab­lished with­in those applic­a­tions. The exist­ing devel­op­ment at this site has been oper­at­ing since that date with no appar­ent adverse impacts or neigh­bour complaints.

2. The Plan­ning State­ment which sup­ports the applic­a­tion out­lines the reas­on­ing for the exten­sion of oper­a­tion request. This states that ​“the con­tin­ued suc­cess of recyc­ling ser­vices for house­hold­ers and busi­nesses in Badenoch and Strath­spey has res­ul­ted in fur­ther reduc­tions in the quant­ity of muni­cip­al wastes requir­ing dis­pos­al at Gran­ish land­fill. Mixed muni­cip­al waste depos­its have reduced by approx­im­ately 25% since the last plan­ning oper­a­tion time exten­sion in 2008, and there­fore the site capa­city has been used up more slowly than expec­ted at that time. The pro­posed time exten­sion does not require any phys­ic­al changes to the extent of land­filling at the site. The sub­mis­sion includes a revised res­tor­a­tion pro­file for the site, which is lower than that pre­vi­ously approved. By redu­cing the con­tours, the remain­ing void capa­city is reduced by approx­im­ately 55,000m³ to approx­im­ately 32,000m³.”

3. The Scot­tish Gov­ern­ment have legis­lated for a ban on the land­filling of bio­de­grad­able muni­cip­al waste (BMW). This was ori­gin­ally due to be imple­men­ted from 1^st Janu­ary 2021; how­ever this date has been delayed until 2025. In pre­par­a­tion for this the applic­ants have recently had plan­ning per­mis­sion gran­ted for a Waste Trans­fer Station

CAIRNGORMS NATION­AL PARK AUTHOR­ITY Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Item 5 20/03/2020

at the site and the pro­posed exten­sion to the oper­a­tion time of the land­fill accords with the Government’s legislation.

1. Tak­ing the above jus­ti­fic­a­tion into account, and not­ing that the pro­pos­al does not phys­ic­ally extend the land­fill site, and instead allows res­tor­a­tion to take place on a reduced land­fill area, the pro­pos­al is con­sidered to accord with Policy 10: Resources of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015.

Envir­on­ment­al Matters

1. Policy 4: Nat­ur­al Her­it­age of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015 seeks to ensure that there is no adverse impact upon pro­tec­ted spe­cies or biod­iversity. Policy 10: Resources seeks to ensure devel­op­ment does not give rise to harm to resources of the environment.

2. The pro­posed vari­ation of con­di­tion to the oper­a­tion time of the land­fill does not pro­pose to alter any of the exist­ing mit­ig­a­tion meas­ures already in place for the pro­pos­al, which ensure the pro­pos­al does not adversely impact the envir­on­ment­al qual­it­ies of the sur­round­ing areas.

3. SEPA con­firm no objec­tion to the applic­a­tion and note that they are work­ing with the oper­at­or to address their reg­u­lat­ory require­ments in respect of the proposal.

4. The pro­posed vari­ation of con­di­tion is there­fore con­sidered to be in accord­ance with the require­ments of Policy 4: Nat­ur­al Her­it­age and Policy 10: Resources of the Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015.

5. The pro­posed rein­state­ment works and land­scap­ing shall take place in accord­ance with the exist­ing and imple­men­ted land­scap­ing schemed which cov­ers the areas of filled land­fill with­in the site. This can be secured by way of plan­ning condition.

Land­scape Matters

1. Policy 5: Land­scape of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015 pre­sumes against devel­op­ment which does not con­serve and enhance the land­scape char­ac­ter and spe­cial qual­it­ies of the Nation­al Park and in par­tic­u­lar, the set­ting of the pro­posed development.

2. The areas of the land­fill, which have been filled in to date, have been sub­ject to a land­scap­ing and rein­state­ment scheme as approved by con­di­tion no. 6 attached to the 2008 per­mis­sion. An amended final con­tours plan has been sub­mit­ted with this vari­ation applic­a­tion to lower the final pro­file of the cells 2 and 3, and this reduc­tion is wel­comed in terms of lessen­ing the visu­al impact of the works.

3. For the pro­posed res­tor­a­tion works, it is under­stood that the top­soil lay­er of the waste pro­file will be increased by 1000mm and grassed over with the plant­ing of trees to match the exist­ing land­scap­ing scheme of the pre­vi­ously restored areas of the land­fill. A post determ­in­a­tion con­di­tion is there­fore recom­men­ded to request the sub­mis­sion of the final land­scap­ing scheme for the remain­ing area of land­fill to be

---

CAIRNGORMS NATION­AL PARK AUTHOR­ITY Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Item 5 20/03/2020

restored to ensure that its visu­al impact is accept­able, tak­ing into account the amended pro­files of the landfill.

1. Sub­ject to the amend­ment to the land­scap­ing con­di­tion, the pro­pos­al is con­sidered to be in accord­ance with Policy 5: Land­scape of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015.

Oth­er Issues Raised in Con­sulta­tions and Representations

1. The mat­ters raised by con­sul­tees and con­trib­ut­ors have been addressed through­out this report. Aviemore and Vicin­ity Com­munity Coun­cil sup­ports the applic­a­tion not­ing that it is a sens­ible and sus­tain­able use of the exist­ing land­fill site.

2. The High­land Coun­cil Trans­port plan­ning Team has no objec­tion to the proposal.

CON­CLU­SION

1. The pro­posed vari­ation of con­di­tion to extend the oper­a­tion time of the land­fill is con­sidered to be accept­able and in com­pli­ance with gov­ern­ment legis­la­tion which looks for the clos­ure of land­fills for muni­cip­al waste in 2025.

2. The pro­pos­al does not look to alter any of the exist­ing mit­ig­a­tion meas­ures already in place for the land­fill, which ensures the pro­pos­al does not adversely impact the envir­on­ment­al qual­it­ies of the area.

3. In these over­all cir­cum­stances the devel­op­ment is con­sidered to com­ply with all rel­ev­ant policies of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2015 and the col­lect­ive aims of the Nation­al Park. There are no oth­er mater­i­al con­sid­er­a­tions which would war­rant the refus­al of plan­ning per­mis­sion. Approv­al is there­fore recom­men­ded sub­ject to appro­pri­ate plan­ning conditions.

RECOM­MEND­A­TION

That Mem­bers of the Com­mit­tee sup­port a recom­mend­a­tion to APPROVE the Amend­ment of cur­rent time lim­its (08/00111/FULBS con­di­tion I) on use of land for waste dis­pos­al by land­fill at Land­fill Site Gran­ish B9152 Grampi­an Road A95t Junc­tion Aviemore High­land sub­ject to the fol­low­ing conditions:

Those con­di­tions lis­ted below in bold text are sus­pens­ive con­di­tions, which require to be dis­charged pri­or to imple­ment­a­tion of the development.

Con­di­tions

1. The use of the land, togeth­er with all engin­eer­ing, build­ing and oth­er oper­a­tions, and sub­sequent man­age­ment and oper­a­tion of the facil­it­ies, hereby approved, shall at all times be car­ried out in accord­ance with the approved plans and doc­u­ments unless expressly approved oth­er­wise by the Plan­ning Author­ity. Land­fill dis­pos­al shall cease not later than 31 March 2023.

Reas­on: To pro­tect the integ­rity of the High­land main rail­way line.

Inform­at­ives

1. The devel­op­ment hereby approved, must com­mence with­in three years of the date of this decision notice. If this has not com­menced with­in this peri­od, then this plan­ning per­mis­sion con­sent shall lapse.

2. The per­son under­tak­ing the devel­op­ment is required to give the Plan­ning Author­ity pri­or writ­ten noti­fic­a­tion of the date on which it is inten­ded to com­mence the devel­op­ment. Attached to this decision notice is a Notice of Ini­ti­ation of Devel­op­ment for com­ple­tion and sub­mis­sion. Sub­mis­sion of this inform­a­tion assists the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity Mon­it­or­ing and Enforce­ment Officer in mon­it­or­ing act­ive work with­in the area to ensure com­pli­ance with the approved details and to identi­fy and cor­rect any poten­tial prob­lems, as they arise, rather than later when it may be more dif­fi­cult and more costly to rec­ti­fy. Fail­ure to give notice would con­sti­tute a breach of plan­ning con­trol, which may res­ult in enforce­ment action being taken.

3. Fol­low­ing com­ple­tion of the devel­op­ment, a noti­fic­a­tion of the com­ple­tion shall, as soon as prac­tic­able, be giv­en to the Plan­ning Author­ity. Attached to this decision notice is a Notice of Com­ple­tion of Devel­op­ment for com­ple­tion and sub­mis­sion. Sub­mis­sion of this form will assist the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity Mon­it­or­ing and Enforce­ment Officer in mak­ing a final inspec­tion and check­ing com­pli­ance with the approved draw­ings and con­di­tions. If the devel­op­ment hereby approved, is to be car­ried out in phases, then a notice of com­ple­tion should be sub­mit­ted at the com­ple­tion of each phase.

The map on the first page of this report has been pro­duced to aid in the stat­utory pro­cess of deal­ing with plan­ning applic­a­tions. The map is to help identi­fy the site and its sur­round­ings and to aid Plan­ning Officers, Com­mit­tee Mem­bers and the Pub­lic in the determ­in­a­tion of the pro­pos­al. Maps shown in the Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Report can only be used for the pur­poses of the Plan­ning Com­mit­tee. Any oth­er use risks infringing Crown Copy­right and may lead to pro­sec­u­tion or civil pro­ceed­ings. Maps pro­duced with­in this Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Report can only be repro­duced with the express per­mis­sion of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity and oth­er Copy­right hold­ers. This per­mis­sion must be gran­ted in advance.
