Liaison
We recognised from the outset the need to consult the community on this project. Activities have included exhibitions, community newsletters and participation in a liaison committees.
Consultation principles

In line with the Government’s planning White Paper 2007, Planning for a Sustainable Future we have been consulting on our gas storage project prior to applications for development consent being made, and specifically:

  • Consulting local communities and affected land owners on our proposals
  • Engaging with the affected local authorities on our proposals from an early stage in the project development process
  • Consulting other public bodies, such as statutory environmental and heritage bodies and relevant highway authorities.

 

Responding to consultation
It was as a direct result of early consultation that we dropped plans to drill appraisal wells from a site on Blackheath Common. We also recognised concerns about the potential siting of the gas processing facility on our existing Wellsite within Albury Park because it lies within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Albury

During the early planning stages, we participated in a liaison committee run by Albury Parish Council which included representatives from various other groups and neighbouring parishes. This committee last met in February 2009. Sine then, a smaller working group has been formed between Albury Parish Council and the company which has met regularly to monitor activity and ensure close liaison. You can view minutes of both groups here.
