The development must commence within five
years of the date of this decision.
2.
The development must be undertaken in
accordance with the following approved plans and documents.
3.
The mast hereby approved must be taken down
and the land restored to its previous condition within 5 years to the date of
commission. The applicant must inform the Local Planning Authority of the
commission date within 3 months of that date.
4.
Prior to the commencement of the development
(including the land work and clearance of vegetation), a detailed Method
Statement that describes how the site will be returned to its original
condition will be submitted to the Local Planning Authority, and it must be
approved in writing. The approved
measures should be adhered to and implemented in full.
5.
No development, including site clearance,
will commence until a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) has
been submitted to the Local Planning Authority and approved in writing by it.
6.
No development or phase of the development to
commence until a Breeding Bird Protection Plan (BBPP) has been submitted to the
Local Planning Authority and approved by it.
7.
No development shall be permitted until a
biodiversity enhancement plan has been submitted to the Local Planning
Authority and approved in writing by it. The development will be carried out in
accordance with the approved details.
8.
No clearance of vegetation, land work or
building activities will be permitted during the bird nesting season (1 March
to 31 August inclusive) unless this has been agreed in writing beforehand with
the Local Planning Authority. When work
is required during this period, a survey of the site must be undertaken by a
competent ecologist no more than 48 hours prior to commencing the work. Any
recommendations given must be fully implemented, and if operational nests are
found, an appropriate protection zone must be established and maintained until
the chicks have fledged.
9. Devices to divert birds must be installed on each external supporting
wire of the mast at a distance of no more than 2
metres in length along them all prior to the mast becoming operational. These
devices must be maintained throughout the development's lifespan. Any damaged,
removed or disconnected devices must be replaced within one month of finding
them.
10. Prior to commencement
of building any meteorological masts, or using any building equipment or
temporary structure(s) of 50 metres or more in height (above ground level), the
developer must submit an aviation lighting scheme to be approved by Cyngor Gwynedd
jointly with the Ministry of Defence, noting how the development will be
illuminated throughout its lifespan to maintain the requirements of civil and
military flying as determined necessary by the Ministry of Defence.
This should include:
a) The details of any building equipment and
temporary structures with a total height of under 50 metres or more (above
ground level) that will be used during the construction of the meteorological
mast, together with the details of any aviation warning lights that will be
installed on them; and
b) Location and height of every
meteorological mast within the development, noting those with aviation warning
lights, location of the lights on the mast, the type of lights to be used, and
the lighting performance specifications.
Then the developer must install the lights as
noted in the approved aviation lighting plan, and the lights will continue to
be operational throughout the development's lifespan.

inform the Ministry of Defence in writing, at least 14 days prior to the
commencement of the work, of the following information:
a) the commencement date to erect the
meteorological mast(s);
b) the maximum height of any building
equipment used when erecting the mast;
c) date when any meteorological mast comes
into use;
d) latitude, longitude and maximum height of
each meteorological mast.
12. The
Ministry of Defence must also be informed of any changes to this information
