INTRODUCTION Purpose and structure of the report The Site Selection Methodology (May 2009) paper (paragraphs 2.3.29 - 2.3.34) outlines the process to be used to create the preferred list of shaft sites, and this process also applies to CSO sites. Paragraph 2.3.31 lists the type of general considerations that will be addressed in each site suitability report, but they depend on the relevance to the site and professional judgement made in the assessments. This report was prepared through the assessment of information from the perspective of a number of technical disciplines: Engineering, Planning, Environment, Property and Community. The reports have been prepared on the basis of the information listed in Appendix 1 - Sources of Information, and this level of information is considered to be appropriate to the current stage. The Background Technical Paper provides information on the requirements for different site types, their sizes and typical activities/facilities within the sites. Each site suitability report considers a particular site on its own merits. In addition, an engineering options report was produced. Information from both of these reports will feed into the technical assessment of how well the site may fit in with tunnel design options, ensuring combinations of sites spread across the length of the tunnel route provide a reasonable spatial distribution of sites (that will best assist with the construction of the tunnel, operation and maintenance). This is considered in the Preferred Scheme Report. Background The process for selecting sites is set out in the Site Selection Methodology (May 2009) paper. All sites have previously passed through the following parts of Stage 1: Part 1A - Creation of the long list of potential shaft (and CSO) sites Part 1B - Creation of a short list of potential shaft (and CSO) sites o o o Table 2.2: Long list of shaft (and CSO) sites - an assessment against set considerations and values Table 2.3: Draft short list of shaft (and CSO) sites - assessment against a list of detailed considerations Workshops to consider each site to arrive at a short list of sites.

The final part of Stage 1 includes this report. The following is an overall summary of all elements that apply to all the sites on the final short list: Part 1C - Creation of the Preferred List of shaft (and CSO) sites - site data, site visits, site suitability reports, engineering options report and optioneering workshops that will result in the Preferred Scheme Report.
1.3 1.3.1
Consultation The Thames Water project team held meetings with London local authorities, statutory and other stakeholders to review the provisional short list of shaft and CSO sites. All general and site specific comments can be found in a separate report titled Consultation on the Short List of Sites: Consultation Feedback Report. These comments were considered to help determine the final short list of sites, but they were also considered at the optioneering workshops. Further meetings were held with London local authorities, statutory and other stakeholders between January and March 2010. Comments are included in this report.

SITE INFORMATION Site and surroundings This site is one of the shortlisted sites for Frogmore Storm Relief - Buckhold Road CSO. This section provides an overview of all the site information that will be used by one or more disciplines to assess the site in sections 3 to 9 of this report. Site C07BF would occupy the northern tip of King Georges Park, adjacent to the entrance from Buckhold Road at the junction with Neville Gill Close, and within the London Borough of Wandsworth. A site location plan is attached as Appendix 2. The area is generally mixed, with Wandsworth Town Centre located 100m to the north, and Southside Shopping Centre to the east of the park beyond Neville Gill Close. The Business Village is located to the northwest of the site and residential properties within Park View Court to the west. King Georges Park extends to the south, and there is a residential terrace which fronts onto Buckhold Road which adjoins the site. King Georges Park includes a childrens nursery, recreational facilities, a lake and open spaces. The nearest residential properties are located approximately 30m from the working area and are separated by Buckhold Road. The site is located within an archaeological priority area, and Wandsworth Town Conservation Area is located 100m north of the site. Green Chains and links pass through the local centre, following the route of the River Wandle. All the mapped designations are shown on the planning and environment plans in Appendix 3. Photographs of the site and surroundings, together with an aerial photograph of the site, are attached as Appendix 4. Access could be provided from Neville Gill Close, which is off the A218 (Buckhold Road). The site is a short distance from the A3 and 2.3km from rail access, using the route A3 and A3036. East Putney London Underground station and Wandsworth Town rail station are less than 1.5km from the site. There are no wharfage/jetty facilities at the site and it is unlikely that any are available within a reasonable distance from the site. A transport plan for the site is attached as Appendix 5. Third-party assets and significant utilities are listed below and are shown on the services and geology plan in Appendix 6: Residential building in the northwest Albion House Major multi-storey building to the northeast Mature trees.

2.1.9
The locations of other third-party assets, such as BT and fibre-optic communication cables, are to be confirmed by further studies and utility searches and may not be shown on the services and geology plan.
2.1.10 Information on the geology specific to this site can be found within the services and geology plan, which is in Appendix 6. This plan shows that the shaft would be founded in London Clay. 2.1.11 It is understood that National Grid is planning to build the proposed Wimbledon to Kensal Green cable tunnel, which would run through the middle of the site. If this site is selected, there would be dialogue with National Grid to consider matters if applicable (such as timing, engineering constraints, cumulative effects of the projects, potential for site sharing, etc). 2.2 2.2.1 Type of site The site C07BF is being considered as: a large CSO site to intercept the Frogmore Storm Relief Sewer CSO a small CSO site to intercept the Frogmore Storm Relief Sewer CSO.

PROPOSED USE OF SITE CONSTRUCTION PHASE The proposed construction phase layouts for the CSO site are located in Appendix 7 Construction Phase Layout, and are based on a preliminary assessment. The construction phase layout drawings are illustrative and show: the layout as a large CSO site the layout as a small CSO site potential access points.
3.1.3
These drawings provide initial preliminary schematic layouts that have not been optimised. If the site proceeds to the next stage as a preferred site, construction phase layouts would be optimised to minimise impacts. Preliminary data associated with the construction phase are provided in Table 3.1 and are common to both the large and small site scenarios. Table 3.1 Construction phase data Activity Length of construction period Likely working hours, ie, (night/day/weekend) Working days Primary means of transporting excavated material away from site Primary means of transporting materials to site CSO site 0.5 to 2 years 12 hrs from 7am to 7pm Mon to Sat Road Road
3.1.4
PROPOSED USE OF SITE OPERATIONAL PHASE Introduction The indicative operational phase layout for the CSO site is located in Appendix 8 Operational Phase Layout, and is based on a preliminary assessment. The generic elevations of structures shown on the operational phase layout are located in Appendix 8 and provide an illustration of typical examples of the permanent structures which are applicable to CSO sites. For both CSO options, the above ground infrastructure at this site is likely to comprise a a ventilation column 10m high and 3m diameter, a ventilation building 5m x 15m x 5m high and a 20m x 10m top structure with openings. The top structure is to provide access and egress into the main shaft and flap valve chamber. The top structures are envisaged to be finished at a level of 107m tunnel datum (TD) (7mAOD), and since the ground level mean value at this site is 104mTD (4mAOD), the top structures would be raised to approximately 3m above the current ground level. For further information on the generic layout of this top structure, refer to Appendix 8. A hardstanding would be provided to the top structures. The site would not be fenced.

4.1.5
It was anticipated that the ventilation column at shaft sites would be 10m high when the assessment in this report was undertaken. Although this was subsequently changed to 15m high, the assessment was not revised as it was considered that the difference would not change any disciplines conclusion on the suitability of the site. b It was anticipated that the elevation of top structures at both CSO and shaft sites would be finished at 107mTD when the assessment in this report was undertaken. Although this was subsequently changed to 104.5mTD, the assessment was not revised as it was considered that the difference would not change any disciplines conclusion on the suitability of the site.

4.1.6
Preliminary data associated with the operational phase are provided in Table 4.1. Table 4.1 Operational phase data Level of inspections and maintenance and likely working hours, ie, (night/day/weekend) frequency of visits 1 daytime visit every six months for electrical/instrument inspection. An additional 1 week maintenance period for tunnel/shaft inspection required per 10 years that could be night/day/weekend working. 1 van visit every six months. An additional 1 week period of 2 to 10 movements per day (estimated several vans and 2 cranes) every 10 years.
No of traffic movements
4.2 4.2.1
Restoration and after-use The portion of the site not occupied by the permanent works would be restored to its original condition on completion of the construction works. If any buildings were demolished, these would not be reinstated unless required. ENGINEERING ASSESSMENT Access This section should be read in conjunction with Section 7.2. Road
5 5.1 5.1.1
5.1.2
For both the construction and operational phases, the sites could be accessed via Neville Gill Close, which is off the A218 (Buckhold Road). It may be possible to also consider access through the main gate or any other access used by park maintenance vehicles. Rail
5.1.3
There is no rail network local to this site. East Putney London Underground station and Wandsworth Town rail station are less than 1.5km from the site. However, rail access is not considered to be a significant factor for CSO sites. River
5.1.4
River access and jetty/wharfage facilities are not a requirement for CSO sites. A wharfage/jetty is not available at the site and is unlikely to be available within a reasonable distance from the site. Construction works considerations No demolition is required. The site is within King Georges Park and some m ature trees may need to be removed. The site is approximately 1km from the centre of the river and the connection tunnel between the CSO drop shaft and the main tunnel would run under buildings. This cannot be improved due to the location of the outfall. The layout of the temporary works should minimise disruption to the parks current infrastructure (trees, walkways and ponds). The final location of the shaft would also need to account for the final route of the EDF cable tunnel. Data available on third-party assets and significant utilities show that the main items in this area of concern are the neighbouring residential and multi-storey buildings, and the
5.2.3
5.2.4

100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
proposed Wimbledon to Kensal Green cable tunnel. Construction methods would be adopted, as appropriate, to mitigate potential settlement of these assets. 5.2.5 5.2.6 It is likely that the proposed works can be constructed within the overall construction programme. The interception chamber and connection culvert to the drop shaft are both within the site and therefore require no additional consideration. Permanent works considerations The top structures to the drop shaft and flap valve chamber would be 2m above ground level. Health and safety There are no unusual health and safety issues with this site. PLANNING ASSESSMENT Introduction The planning assessment builds on the advantages and disadvantages reported in Table 2.3 and covers the following areas: Planning applications and permissions Planning context Planning comments. 6.2 6.2.1 Planning applications and permissions An initial desktop search of the London Borough of Wandsworth online planning applications database did not identify any planning applications submitted within the last five years applicable to the site. Planning context The following is a summary of the relevant local planning policies and designations affecting the site, and are taken from the current statutory development plan for the borough. The local plan comprises the saved policies from the Wandsworth Unitary Development Plan, adopted August 2003, and the Consolidated London Plan, adopted February 2008. Policy ON1, Open Space the site is designated public open space. The policy protects open space from development which would result in the loss of open space that contributes to the character and appearance of its surround, or has potential to be used for recreational purposes. Open Space Deficiency Area the site falls within an open space deficiency area. Policy ON4, Metropolitan Open Land, protects MOL from development unless it is related to essential facilities for outdoor sport and recreation, for other uses of land which preserve openness of MOL or for the carrying out of an engineering operation or the making of any material change in the use of land, provided that it maintains the openness of MOL and does not conflict with its purpose. Policy ON7, Green Chain Links, prohibits development that would harm the open nature of any open land that might contribute towards Green Chain or links between open spaces, and especially between Metropolitan Open Land and where they form strategic links between boroughs.

6.3.6
Policy TBE14, Archaeological Priority Area, states that where development involves ground disturbance, the council will require developers to undertake an archaeological investigation. As appropriate, the council may, under Policy TBE15, require the preservation of findings either in situ or by excavation. Policy ON9, Trees planning permission will not be granted for development which would result in damage to or loss of trees of amenity value unless removal would be in the interests of good arboricultural practice or adequate replacement planting is proposed. Policy GEN12, Housing in determining proposals for development, the council will seek to protect and enhance the character and amenity of residential areas. Policy TCS1, Town Centres the site is adjacent to the Southside Shopping Centre part of Wandsworth Town Centre. Policy TCS1 permits development of an appropriate mix of uses, including retail, business, financial and professional services, as well as leisure, recreation, food and drink, education, health care and, on environmentally suitable sites, residential use. Consultation comments A series of consultations on the shortlisted sites were held with London local authorities, statutory and other pan-London stakeholders during July to September 2009 and January to March 2010. This section summarises factual comments that have been made by consultees, and which have informed the SSR assessments. London Borough of Wandsworth

The council stated that the site is designated as Metropolitan Open Land, and that there is currently a lake and the John Moore memorial tree and bench located on the site. Access is via an ornamental gate. The Southside Shopping Centre is located adjacent to the site. The council also advised that the new National Grid tunnel cuts across the park. English Heritage

No comment. Planning comments There are a small number of planning designations that are applicable to the sites. These designations have been identified and described in Section 6.3. Of these designations, those relating to public open space and residential amenity are of most relevance to the proposed development. St Georges Park is an attractive and well maintained local park . Use of the site for the Thames Tunnel Project would result in the temporary loss of an area of public open space within the park. This is particularly significant, given that the site also falls within an open Page 6
6.5.2
100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
space deficiency area. The proportional loss of open space associated with both the small and large CSO sites against the level of remaining provision during the construction works may be acceptable. However, mitigation measures may be required to ensure the continued integrity and enjoyment of the remaining areas of open space, and to avoid potential adverse impacts arising from noise, dust and increased traffic movements. Replacement open space or improvement to existing facilities may also be required under Policy ON1. 6.5.3 Use of the site may also impact on the existing degree of openness across the site. However, Policy ON4 states that development may be permitted on MOL if it is required in connection with an engineering operation. This will require further consultation with the local authority, and mitigation may be required to reduce the potential level of visual impact of both the construction works and permanent onsite after-use structures. The integration of after-use structures with the park would require further consideration to ensure they would not conflict with the future use of the site for public recreation purposes. The site is adjacent to and in close proximity to a number of residential properties. The proposal site is situated within 30m of the nearest residential dwellings along Buckhold Road. With appropriate mitigation, the proposal site should not unacceptably impact upon residential amenity of residents within the vicinity of the site. Mitigation against potential impacts from noise, dust and increased traffic movements may be required, as well as control of construction working hours to those commonly operated with residential areas. The day centre and clinic to the east of the site on Neville Gill Road may experience some disruption from the temporary construction works. However, this could in part be addressed by moving the excavation material area further away from these uses. There is a nursery located approximately 90m from the working area. The separation distance achievable at the site, combined with the potential impacts on outlook and general amenity, are considered acceptable. However, mitigation would still be required to protect the nursery and its users from the effects of dust, noise and vibration. Movement within the park may need to be altered or redirected, and consideration would need to be given to any necessary rearrangement of facilities within the park. The site falls within a designated archaeological priority area. The appropriate level of site investigation should be agreed with the LPA, in accordance with policies TBE14 and TBE15. Further appraisal of the archaeological potential on the site is provided in Section 7 of this report. Use of the site would be unlikely to have an adverse impact on the adjacent designated town centre area. However, potential impacts and mitigation measures relating to traffic and transport issues are covered in Section 7 of this report. ENVIRONMENTAL APPRAISAL Introduction The following sections summarise specialist assessments which are provided in Appendix 9 Environmental Appraisal Tables. Transport Small 7.2.1 The site is suitable as a small CSO site, although access onto Neville Gill Close would require construction and there may be a need to modify the layout of the Buckhold Road/ Neville Gill Close junction to allow HGVs to be able to turn right from Neville Gill Close. Other than this, no constraints are identified en route to the TLRN (200m away) or to the rail connection. Some parking could be provided onsite for the workforce and there may be potential to utilise the nearby car park to accommodate any shortfall. There is reasonable potential for the workforce to utilise public transport to access the site.

100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
Large 7.2.2 The site is suitable as a large CSO site, although access and egress require construction, some park fencing and guard railing would need to be removed and several footways within the park would require closure and diversion. The Buckhold Road/Neville Gill Close junction may require reconfiguration to allow swept paths for construction vehicles turning right to access the TLRN (A3). Road access is suitable, with no other visible constraints along the route. The route to a rail link at Clapham Junction is possible, albeit passing through a high street area. Some parking could be provided onsite for the workforce and there may be potential to utilise the nearby car park to accommodate any shortfall. There is reasonable potential for the workforce to utilise public transport to access the site. Archaeology The site is potentially suitable as either a small or a large CSO site, although due to a lack of previous investigations in the area, the nature and extent of archaeological receptors cannot be confidently predicted. It is possible that archaeological receptors of high or medium value may be present, although the site currently has no records of archaeological remains. While no direct evidence has been revealed, waterlogged remains and peat deposits of high or medium value may also be present. Peat deposits containing archaeological material have been commonly recorded throughout London in a similar proximity to the River Thames, and it is a reasonable assumption to suggest that waterlogged remains of archaeological value may be present. Built heritage and townscape From a built heritage perspective, the site is suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because it would not result in any direct impacts upon the historic built environment; it does, however have the potential to impact upon the setting of one Grade II listed building. Mitigation in the form of a carefully considered scheme design and/or screening of the site would minimise any adverse impacts. In townscape terms, the site is considered to be less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because it could result in direct adverse impacts upon the character of King Georges Park, public open space and local views, and would be highly visible during both construction and operation. Water resources hydrogeology and surface water In terms of hydrogeology, this site is suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because the drop shaft is to be constructed in London Clay (non-aquifer). The Chalk piezometric head is likely to be approximately 6.1m above the base of construction and should be taken into account in the engineering design. No impact on the Chalk aquifer is expected. The superficial deposits are Kempton Gravel, which is classified as a minor aquifer at the shaft site, and a limited impact on flow in the shallow aquifer is anticipated due to the use of a diaphragm wall or caissons. In terms of surface water resources, this site is less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because of the risk of overland pollution to the pond on the site and, as such, specific mitigation would be required. Ecology The site is less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site due to the requirement for temporary and permanent land-take from King Georges Park a site of borough importance (SBI) for nature conservation. Land-take from a London and possibly UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) habitat within this SBI would also require offsite mitigation/compensation solutions, as well as potentially extensive post-works restoration requirements.

7.7 7.7.1
Flood risk The site is suitable as either a small or large CSO site because it is defended to the one in 1,000-year design standard. However, a flood risk assessment would be required. There is space for SuDS, although an investigation would be required to determine the suitability for infiltration SuDS. Air quality The site is less suitable for use as a CSO or large CSO site from an air quality perspective as there is potential for fugitive emissions of dust during construction to have a perceptible impact at residential properties in close proximity to the site. These impacts can be minimised with standard dust control measures. There is potential for HGV movements on the local road network to cause localised air quality impacts in areas of already poor air quality. This can, to some extent, be mitigated by minimising the movement of HGVs during peak hours. Noise The site is considered suitable as either a small or a large CSO site, as although the distance between the site and the nearest residential receptors at Park View Court is not large, the existing noise climate is moderately high due to existing road traffic on the A218, Buckhold Road. Any shielding afforded by the site perimeter barriers would be largely ineffectual due to the height of these receptors. Although it is anticipated there would be a large number of vehicles associated with the construction phase and the access route proposed along Buckhold Road, they are unlikely to cause an adverse noise impact due to a relatively small number of receptors along this road. Land quality

7.9 7.9.1
7.10
7.10.1 The site is suitable as either a small or a large CSO site, based on the low potential for contamination from historical onsite activities and the distance from historical offsite sources. 8 8.1 8.1.1 SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT Socio-economic profile The site is within the Southfields ward of the London Borough of Wandsworth. Statistics from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) 2001 Census data show the following indicators for the ward, in comparison to the rest of Wandsworth, London and England as a whole: A higher rate of full-time employees and self-employed people. A higher rate of employment in professional occupations. A substantially higher proportion of people educated to Level 4/5 (degree level). Fewer people aged 19 or under, or 45 and over, (with comparably more people in their twenties and thirties). There is a high percentage of young children (aged 0-4 years), indicating that there is a growing population in the area. Approximately 82% people are white and around 74% of people were born in the UK. A higher proportion of residents reporting a good state of health. 8.1.2 Overall, the community profile suggests that this is a population of mainly young professionals. Issues and impacts Due to the proposed location of the engineering works for both a large and small CSO, it appears likely that the sites use would result in the temporary loss of the northern tip of the
8.2 8.2.1
Page 9
100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
public open green space. Disturbance is also likely to users in the remainder of the park, including a childrens nursery and play area, bowling green and other facilities to the south of the works area. As the park is in an area with several community-oriented facilities, potential users may be especially vulnerable to disruption, such as children and older people. 8.2.2 The residents of Park View Court, located opposite the site to the west, are also likely to face some disturbance due to the works. However, they are separated from the site by Buckhold Road and views may be partially screened by the existing mature trees. The Penfold Day Centre opposite the park to the east may also face some disruption. The remaining properties in the vicinity are mainly commercial and retail and appear unlikely to be significantly affected. The after-use structures required onsite after CSO interception works have been completed could restrict the reinstatement of park facilities. PROPERTY ASSESSMENT Introduction The site forms the northern tip of St Georges Park in Wandsworth. It is under consideration as either a large or a small CSO interception site. Crown Land and Special Land comments The land appears to be owned by London Borough of Wandsworth, although at the time of writing this report, title information was not available. The site may therefore be classified as Special Land under Section 17 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981. However, Section 17 does not apply where the body acquiring the land is a statutory undertaker. As Thames Water is a statutory undertaker, Section 17 would not apply to London Tideway Tunnels. However, Section 16 of the Act would apply and provides that land may not be acquired unless the Minister is satisfied that there would be no detriment to the operations of the owner, or that the land can be replaced. Therefore, the compulsory purchase may be subject to a Ministerial procedure. The land is open space, consisting of parkland, and therefore it may be classified as Special Land under Section 19 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981. If this is the case, and if an acquisition cannot be agreed with the owner, a special parliamentary procedure may be needed after the Order is confirmed. As the whole Order would be subject to the special parliamentary procedure, not just the acquisition of this site, the project could be delayed by a minimum period of several months in the best case. In the worst case, the Order might be rejected by Parliament, in which case an Act of Parliament would be needed before the Order could come into effect. This could delay the project for a much longer period and even result in the Order failing. Contact should be made with the owner as soon as possible to establish if an acquisition can be agreed. It may also be advisable to consider the inclusion of exchange land in the Order if any is available. Land to be acquired The compensation assessment assumes that the worksite would be acquired temporarily, via the acquisition of new rights for the period of the works stated in the engineering section. The operational phase would require the acquisition of a freehold interest in a small area of the park, with dimensions of approximately 15m by 15m. A right of way to enable access to the above freehold would need to be acquired. There is an electricity substation in the northern part of the site, near the boundary with Buckhold Road. The working area boundary should be altered to avoid this if possible. Page 10

Property valuation comments The planning history confirms that there are no development proposals for this site. The land would be reinstated after the works are complete, as a part of the engineering works, and therefore reinstatement costs are not included in the compensation assessment. Compensation for the acquisition of new rights is normally based on the diminution in value to the land caused by the acquisition. Compensation for the permanent acquisition of land is normally based on market value. However, compensation for the permanent acquisition of unusual types of property, where there is no general market, can be assessed on the basis of the cost of equivalent reinstatement at a new site, but there must be a genuine intention to reinstate. If compensation is assessed on a diminution in value basis for the new rights (temporary occupation during works, access rights during works, access rights for operational purposes) and on a market value basis for the permanent acquisition, the costs are likely to be relatively low and therefore acceptable. If compensation is assessed on an equivalent reinstatement basis, the acquisition costs would be significantly higher, but still acceptable. Although finding replacement land may be difficult, compensation has been assessed on an equivalent reinstatement basis in order to be prudent. Disturbance compensation comments The site is used as parkland and therefore any disturbance compensation payable is likely to be minimal. Offsite statutory compensation comments There should be limited potential for offsite statutory compensation under Section 10 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965, as there is unlikely to be any physical interference with public or private property rights. There should also be limited potential for claims under Part 1 of the Land Compensation Act 1973 as the completed works are unlikely to result in diminution in value to property. Discretionary purchase costs comments The terms and conditions of the discretionary scheme have not yet been finalised and therefore it is not possible to come to a view on the level of discretionary purchase costs. There is potential for discretionary purchase costs in relation to nearby residential property, in particular the flats fronting Buckhold Road. The construction details section of the report states that working hours would be 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday to Saturday, for a period of up to two years. The fact that work would be within normal working hours should significantly limit the potential for discretionary purchases. Site acquisition cost assessment The statutory acquisition costs are likely to be acceptable for both options. SITE CONCLUSIONS BY DISCIPLINE Introduction

10.2
10.2.1 This site is suitable as a large CSO site because it has good access and is of adequate size. The storm relief sewer is in close proximity to the drop shaft and this would allow the interception chamber and connection culvert to the drop shaft to be within the same site. No demolition would be required. The site is approximately 1km away from the river and the connection from the drop shaft to the main tunnel would run under buildings. However, this cannot be improved due to the location of the outfall. Small CSO site 10.2.2 As the site is suitable as a large CSO site, it is also suitable as a small CSO site. 10.2.3 Whether a small CSO site is appropriate or not for the interception of the Frogmore Storm Relief Sewer CSO will be considered at the next stage, in conjunction with the drive strategy that is developed in the Engineering Options Report. 10.3 Planning
10.3.1 On balance, the site is considered suitable for use as either a small or large CSO site. 10.3.2 There are few planning designations applicable this site. However, potential impacts upon residential amenity and loss of open space within an area of deficiency would require appropriate mitigation. Further consideration should also be given to the detailed layout of the work areas, reinstatement of the working areas post construction and the integration of the after-use structures within the park. 10.4 Environment
10.4.1 Overall, the site is suitable as both a small and a large CSO site, although mitigation would be required to enable the site to be used for either purpose. 10.4.2 Based on current information, the site is suitable for both site sizes from the perspective of transport, archaeology, built heritage, water resources (groundwater), flood risk, noise and land quality. 10.4.3 The site is considered less suitable for both site sizes from the perspective of townscape, ecology, surface water and air quality. 10.4.4 Overall, the site is considered suitable, subject to further investigation of whether ecology, surface water and air quality impacts can be adequately mitigated. Likely mitigation considerations would include the following: Townscape Retention and protection of trees where possible and the introduction of landscape scheme to include appropriate surface treatments and planting to replace lost vegetation and re-establish planted character of park, and sensitive design of structures to minimise impacts on the character of the park and local views. Ecology mitigation/compensation solutions, as well as post-works restoration of habitat lost within a site of borough importance (SBI) for nature conservation. Surface water mitigation to minimise the risk of overland pollution to the pond on the site. Air quality measures to ensure dust is adequately mitigated for the closest receptors, and minimising the movement of HGVs during peak hours. 10.5 Socio-economic and community
10.5.1 This site is suitable for either a small or large CSO site. Use of the site appears likely to only result in the temporary loss of the northernmost tip of the park. The remainder would be available for public use, although the childrens nursery and play area, bowling green
Page 12
100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
and other facilities may face some disturbance. It appears possible, however, for potential impacts on park users and the surrounding properties to be mitigated. During the works, these may include measures to limit noise and visual disturbance. 10.5.2 The permanent hardstanding and associated after-use features may restrict the reinstatement of that area of the park after the works have finished. 10.6 Property
10.6.1 This site is considered suitable as a CSO site. 10.6.2 The advantages of the site are as follows: Acquisition cost should be acceptable The site is undeveloped. 10.6.3 The disadvantage of the site is as follows: A special parliamentary procedure may be needed, giving rise to acquisition risk.

Transport Small CSO site Site considerations Access to road network Comments Site accesses onto Neville Gill Close approximately 20 to 30m south east of the junction with Buckhold Road. No visibility issues at this location. Access would need construction. May require reconfiguration of the junction of Neville Gill Close with Buckhold Road to provide a sufficient swept path for HGVs to turn right out of the junction as location of existing refuge island may hinder right turn movements by HGVs (access to TLRN is via right turn). Neville Gill Close is subject to a 30mph speed limit and lit. Road lightly trafficked. Site located within 200m of TLRN strategic highway network. Route to TLRN unconstrained providing sufficient space for right turn available. Mitigation required and conclusions Site accesses onto Neville Gill Close. Access would need construction. May require reconfiguration of the junction of Neville Gill Close with Buckhold Road to allow HGV movements. Route to TLRN strategic highway network unconstrained assuming right turn possible from Neville Gill Close. Comments Temporary construction site access and egress are onto Neville Gill Close. A one-way system through the site for construction vehicles is proposed. The site access and egress are located approximately 50m and 20m south of the junction with Buckhold Road respectively. The access/egress would require construction. Visibility from the site egress appears to be adequate. Permanent site access is onto Buckhold Road and would require construction. Park fencing and guard railing would also need to be removed. The access is located within close proximity to a signalised junction to the southwest. Several footways within the park would require closure and diversion. Neville Gill Close and Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Construction of site accesses and egress required. Park fencing and guard railing needs to be removed. Several footways within the park would require closure and diversion. Route to the TLRN (A3) possible but may require the reconfiguration of the junction between Neville Gill Close and Buckhold Road to enable adequate swept paths for construction vehicles.

100-RG-PNC-C07BF-900001.doc
Transport Small CSO site Site considerations Comments Mitigation required and conclusions Comments Buckhold Road are street lit and subject to 30mph speed limits. Neville Gill Close was noted to be lightly trafficked. Access route to the A3 (TLRN strategic highway network) uses Neville Gill Close and Buckhold Road. The junction between Neville Gill Close and Buckhold Road may require reconfiguration to provide adequate swept paths for HGVs, as an existing refuge island may hinder right turn movements (access to TLRN is via right turn). Route otherwise unconstrained. Distance 0.2km to the TLRN (A3). Access to river River access not required for CSO site. River access not required as excavated material would be transported away by road. Site remote from river, although river access not required for a CSO site as excavated material would be transported away by road. Access to existing railway sidings at Clapham Junction from the TLRN (A3) onto the A217 and the gyratory between the A217 and A3205 Site remote from river, although river access not required for a CSO site. Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions
Access to rail
Possible use of existing rail connections to the sidings at Clapham Junction. Rail link only 1.4 miles from site.
Possible rail connection at Clapham Junction. Route to rail link acceptable should right turn be possible from Neville Gill Close.
Route to possible rail link at Clapham Junction runs through a high street area along St Johns Hill and under one rail bridge with no

Transport Small CSO site Site considerations Comments No obvious constraints on route from site to rail connection (other than swept path issue at Buckhold Road/ Neville Gill Close junction). Mitigation required and conclusions Comments turning onto the A214. The route then leads onto East Hill following onto St Johns Hill before turning onto Plough Road for the Clapham Junction, Traincare Depot railway sidings. The route passes under one rail bridge (on Trinity Road) with no visible restrictions and through a high street area along St Johns Hill. Distance 1.8km to rail access point from site. Parking Some parking could be provided onsite. NCP car park located directly adjacent to site if onsite parking not feasible or shortfall. PTAL 3-4 (Medium) as identified within Table 2.3. Potential need to modify Buckhold Rd/ Neville Gill Close junction to facilitate HGV right turn onto Buckhold Road. Access would need No parking issues. Some onsite, any shortfall could be accommodated in NCP. Some parking could be provided onsite for workforce. A car park is also located directly adjacent to the site which could allow workforce parking. As for small, see left. Some parking could be provided onsite for workforce. The car park nearby could also allow workforce parking. As for small, see left. Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions visible restrictions. Clapham Junction railway sidings at the Traincare Depot accessible using Plough Road.
Reasonable potential for workforce to access site via public transport. Possible modifications required at Buckhold Road/ Neville Gill Close junction. Access would need construction.
Traffic Management
Construction of the new site accesses and egress. Removal of park fencing and guard railing. Closure and diversion of footways with the park.
Site accesses/egress require construction, park fencing and guard railing need to be removed, footways within the park require diversion and the Buckhold Road/Neville Gill

Transport Small CSO site Site considerations Comments construction. Mitigation required and conclusions Comments Possible reconfiguration of the Buckhold Road/Neville Gill Close junction to allow sufficient construction vehicle swept paths (removal of island). Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Close may require reconfiguration.
Summary
The site is suitable as a small CSO site although access onto Neville Gill Close would require construction and there may be a need to modify the layout of the Buckhold Road/ Neville Gill Close junction to allow HGVs to be able to turn right from Neville Gill Close. Other than this no constraints are identified on route to the TLRN (200m away) or to the rail connection. Some parking could be provided onsite for the workforce and there may be potential to utilise the nearby car park to accommodate any shortfall. There is reasonable potential for the workforce to utilise public transport to access the site.
The site is suitable as a large CSO site although access and egress would require construction and some park fencing and guard railing would need to be removed and several footways within the park would require closure and diversion. The Buckhold Road / Neville Gill Close junction may require reconfiguration to allow swept paths for construction vehicles turning right to access the TLRN (A3). Road access is suitable, with no other visible constraints along the route. The route to a rail link at Clapham Junction is possible, albeit passing through a high street area. Some parking could be provided onsite for the workforce and there may be potential to utilise the nearby car park to accommodate any shortfall. There is reasonable potential for the workforce to utilise public transport to access the site.

The 19 /20 century OS maps show a possible wide ditch or possibly a water course oriented north-east-south west across the approximate centre of the site. No archaeological receptors are recorded within the site. An archaeological evaluation and excavation took place in 1992 38m to the north west and outside of the site. The work revealed brick lined watercourses and structural remains of post medieval date. This does not preclude the possibility of unrecorded archaeological receptors of this nature being present within the site. No archaeological receptors are recorded within the site. This does not preclude the possibility of unrecorded archaeological receptors of medium value being present within the site None recorded.

Archaeology Site considerations Comments Potential issues Detailed design proposals, and an outline method statement would be required to enable initial assessment of development impacts, and to inform mitigation proposals. With the currently available information it is not possible to highlight specific potential issues. Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Mitigation methods could include: Desk based assessment Production of deposits model Archaeological monitoring of geotechnical investigations Archaeological evaluation Archaeological watching brief Archaeological excavation. Summary The site is potentially suitable as either a small or a large CSO site although due to a lack of previous investigations in the area the nature and extent of archaeological receptors cannot be confidently predicted. It is possible that archaeological receptors of high or medium value may be present, although the site currently has no records of archaeological remains. While no direct evidence has been revealed, waterlogged remains and peat deposits of high or medium value may also be present. Peat deposits containing archaeological material have been commonly recorded throughout London in a similar proximity to the River Thames and it is a reasonable assumption to suggest waterlogged remains of archaeological value may be present.

There is the potential for 7 listed buildings (two Grade II* and five Grade II buildings) and 2 conservation areas (the Wandsworth Town Centre Conservation Area and the West Hill Road Conservation Area) to be indirectly affected by C07BF.
Of the 7 listed buildings within 250m of C07BF, only one (Down Lodge, Merton Road, Grade II) shares a visual relationship with the site. The development therefore has the potential to impact upon the setting of this listed structure and mitigation in the form of a high quality scheme design and/or screening may be required. The other 6 listed buildings are unlikely to experience any impact and mitigation would therefore not be required. Neither the Wandsworth Town Centre Conservation Area nor the West Hill Conservation Area share a visual relationship with the site, reflecting the built up character of the local area. Consequently, no visual impact is expected or any form of mitigation required.

Built heritage and townscape Site considerations Comments The site is mostly covered with mature trees, vegetation and part of a pond. Buckhold Road with residential properties to the west and with industrial units to the north, South Circular Road to the north, Neville Gill Close with multi-storey mixed use development to the east, King Georges Park to the south. The removal of mature vegetation would increase openness of site. The presence and operation of machinery, materials stores and buildings would result in temporary, adverse direct impacts on the character of the park and temporary, adverse indirect impacts on neighbouring areas. Permanent elements would result in permanent, adverse direct impacts on the character of the King Georges Park. Potential views likely to be affected Open views from residential properties, mixed use properties, and King Georges Park. Partially interrupted views from residential properties along Buckhold Street and South Circular Road. During construction, views of cranes from surrounding residences. Open views of vent column from Buckhold Road. During construction, the use of hoardings and appropriate lighting would help minimise visual impact. Design of top structure, vent column, and electrical kiosk to be given careful consideration. Planting to screen permanent plant. Removal of mature vegetation would be visually significant, therefore, adequate new planting would be important to protect visual amenity. This site is less suitable due to being highly visible, both, during construction and operation. Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions surface treatments and planting to replace lost vegetation and re-establish planted character of park. Removal of mature vegetation and the presence and operation of machinery, materials stores and buildings onsite would impact character of site. There would be loss of open space and mature vegetation.

Built heritage and townscape Site considerations Comments Particular considerations on sites where new permanent structures are required Permanent structures at C07BF have the potential to have an indirect effect upon the setting of one Grade II listed building (Down Lodge, Merton Road). The appearance of any above ground structures would need to be carefully considered in the scheme design and some form of screening for the site may be required. The development could result in direct impacts upon the character of King Georges Park, public open space and local views as well as an indirect impact upon one listed building. However, there is the potential to mitigate any adverse impacts through a high quality scheme design and/or screening. Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Any permanent structures would need to be of a high quality design and/or screened in order that the visual impact of the development upon the Grade II listed Down Lodge is minimised.
Potential issues
The scheme design would need to be of a sufficiently high quality and may need to incorporate some screening in order that the potential visual intrusiveness of the development upon the local townscape character and upon the setting of one listed building is mitigated.
Summary
From a built heritage perspective, the site is suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because it would not result in any direct impacts upon the historic built environment; it does, however have the potential to impact upon the setting of one Grade II listed building. Mitigation in the form of a carefully considered scheme design and/or screening of the site would minimise any adverse impacts. In townscape terms, the site is considered to be less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because it could result in direct adverse impacts upon the character of King Georges Park, public open space and local views, and woul d be highly visible during both construction and operation.

Water resources hydrogeology and surface water Site considerations Comments Local Authorities (LA) Unlicensed Groundwater Abstractions and Details No abstraction borehole within 1km radius inside Wandsworth Council Boundary Borehole locations and depths There are historical records of 2 deep water wells within 1 km radius. Depth range: 101.8 192.02m Potential impacts on surface water features The site is located approximately 800 metres south of the River Thames. The northern edge of the pond in King Georges Park is within the site boundary. However, the works are not likely to directly affect the pond. There is a direct pathway for pollution to the pond. More detailed investigation is required to determine the importance of the pond. There is no direct pathway for pollution to any other surface water feature. Potential impacts on groundwater (resources and quality) No impact on groundwater at depth is likely since the drop shaft is to be constructed in London Clay (non aquifer). At shallow depth, the shaft is located in Kempton Gravel which is classified as a minor aquifer. Limited impact on shallow aquifer if water is excluded from the excavation by diaphragm wall or caissons. No mitigation required if groundwater is not impacted. See below (likely types of mitigation measures that would be required). Work needs to be undertaken in consideration of Pollution Prevention Guidelines PPG1, PPG5 and PPS23.

Water resources hydrogeology and surface water Site considerations Comments Potential issues The drop shaft to be excavated in London Clay but to below piezometric head in Chalk. Potential pressure effects. Limited impact on flow in shallow aquifer. Summary Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Confined head in Chalk to be considered as part of geotechnical design. Impact on and mitigation for shallow aquifer would depend on construction design.
In terms of hydrogeology, this site is suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because the drop shaft is to be constructed in London Clay (non aquifer). The Chalk piezometric head is likely to be approximately 6.1m above the base of construction and should be taken into account in the engineering design. No impact on the Chalk aquifer is expected. The superficial deposits are Kempton Gravel which is classified as a minor aquifer at the shaft site and a limited impact on flow in shallow aquifer is anticipated due to diaphragm wall or caissons. In terms of surface water resources, this site is less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site because of the risk of overland pollution to the pond on the site and as such, specific mitigation would be required.

Ecology (terrestrial and aquatic) Site considerations Comments Statutory designations Non-statutory designated wildlife sites BAP priority habitats Lower Wandle LNR is 2km from site. Site is within King Georges Park BGII site of importance for nature conservation Within King Georges Park, the London BAP habitat Parks, Squares and Amenity Grassland would be subject to land take. The site boundary encompasses the edge of a lake present within King Georges Park, a feature that qualifies under UK BAP priority habitat Ponds. Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions None required Any constructions affecting the Park, including temporary works would require compensatory habitat provision. Postworks restoration is also likely to be required. Any constructions affecting the parkland and amenity grassland, including temporary works would require compensatory habitat provision. Post-works restoration is also likely to be required. The lake is a noted feature of the park. An aquatic invertebrate survey would be required and land take from it would require compensatory habitat provision. Post-works restoration is also likely to be required. For works adjacent to the lake, working practices would need to be designed to avoid impacts from run-off and atmospheric pollutants into the lake, which contains species known to require unpolluted water. Protected or otherwise notable species within the Study Area Trees within the site boundary may have the potential to support roosting bats. For any trees to be removed during construction, if bat roosts were found to be present, mitigation would be required, possibly including offsite provision. Careful placement of lighting to minimise illumination of surrounding habitat is likely to be required. Mitigation would be possible but may require offsite provision. No mitigation necessary assuming desk study reveals no GCN within 2km. Not applicable
Habitats onsite are suitable for reptile species. NBN Gateway does not suggest Great Crested Newts (GCN) records within 2km, but this area of the site does provide suitable habitat aquatic and terrestrial. No direct impact on aquatic receptors. Potential issues No other issues

Ecology (terrestrial and aquatic) Site considerations Comments Summary Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions
The site is less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site due to the requirement for temporary and permanent land take from King Georges Park - Site of Borough Importance (SBI) for Nature Conservation. Land take from a London and possibly UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) habitat within this SBI would also require offsite mitigation/compensation solutions as well as potentially extensive post-works restoration requirements.

Flood risk assessment Site considerations Comments Flood Risk Zone The site is located partially within flood zone 3 up to a 1 in 200 year risk of tidal flooding, flood zone 2 between 1 in 200 year risk and 1 in 1000 year risk of flooding and within flood zone 1. The SFRA for Wandsworth shows that the site benefits from the protection afforded by defences on the River Thames and the River Wandle. The defences are to the 1 in 1000 year standard. Sewage transmission infrastructure is considered to be water compatible according to table D.2 of PPS25 Assessment of conditions for SuDS Potential issues Summary There is space onsite for the provision of SuDS. The site may not be suitable for infiltration SuDS and investigation would be required to determine suitability. No other issues Not applicable Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions A FRA would be required to assess the risk of flooding to the site.
Not applicable
The site is suitable as either a small or large CSO site because it is defended to the 1 in 1000 year design standard; however, a flood risk assessment would be required. There is space for SuDS although an investigation would be required to determine the suitability for infiltration SuDS.

Air quality Site considerations Comments AQMA Sensitive Receptors The air quality objective for NO2 is exceeded on major roads in the vicinity of the site. There are residential properties along West Hill (A3), Wandsworth High Street (A3) and Buckland Road (A218). The nearest residential properties are around 35m from the site on Park View Court. Existing traffic issues Existing sources of significant air pollutants Notable gaps in existing air quality monitoring Potential issues The main traffic issue in this area is exhaust emissions from vehicles along the A3, A217, A218 and A3209 corridors. See existing traffic issues above. There is no data at likely access to the A218 and the nearest existing data indicates existing AQLV exceeded. The risk from additional exhaust emissions from construction HGVs is undefined at present. The risk from dust impacts at residential properties is moderate. Summary Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions There is a need for more site specific data. There are relevant air quality sensitive receptors present along the route the construction traffic is likely to take and close to the proposed construction works.
Additional vehicle emissions have a high potential to interfere with local air quality action plan policies. See existing traffic issues above. Collect minimum 6 months diffusion tube data at the nearest residential receptors to the site access to A218 or other point of access to major road network. Minimise HGV movements on the local road network during the peak hours. Standard dust control measures would minimise the effect of fugitive dust on nearby sensitive receptors.
The site is less suitable as either a small or a large CSO site as there is potential for fugitive emissions of dust during construction to have a perceptible impact at residential properties in close proximity to the site. These impacts can be minimised with standard dust control measures. There is potential for HGV movements on the local road network to cause localised air quality impacts in areas of already poor air quality. This can to some extent be mitigated by minimising the movement of HGVs during peak hours.

Noise Site considerations Comments Noise band level (from Defra noise maps) Information from Defra noise maps indicates daytime noise levels of between 58 and 74 dB LAeq and night-time noise levels of between 50 and 65 dB LAeq at residential properties located close to the proposed site. The residential properties at Park View Court which face the site are likely to experience moderately high daytime and nighttime noise levels due to them overlooking the A218. Noise levels from the Defra noise maps provide an indication of prevailing noise levels only, and would not be employed in any detailed assessments for chosen sites. Sensitive Receptors There are sensitive receptors located to the west of the site at Park View Court, Broomhill Road. These consist of 4 storey high residential dwellings. Further residential properties are located to the south west on Buckhold Road and consist of 2 storey residential properties, and Edwyn House on Neville Gill Close is located to the south east and consists of 20 storey residential flats. Sensitive receptors at Park View Court are located at a distance of approximately 30m from the sites western boundary. Receptors at Buckhold Road to the south are located approximately 75m away. The site access route is proposed to be along Buckhold Road to the A3. There are only a few receptors located along this stretch of Buckhold Road and therefore there is unlikely to be an adverse noise impact from HGV traffic. Not applicable Small CSO site/Large CSO site Mitigation required and conclusions Not applicable

Noise Site considerations Comments Existing traffic issues Local road traffic, including the road traffic on the A218 to the west and north and the A3 to the north would contribute to the local noise climate in the area. Local road traffic, including the road traffic on the A218 to the west and north and the A3 to the north would contribute to the local noise climate in the area. Construction: The construction period is estimated at 0.5 to 2 years and working hours would be 12 hours per day (7am 7pm) Monday to Saturday. This has the potential to result in adverse noise impacts to any sensitive receptors in close proximity to the site. HGV movements are likely to result in adverse noise impacts on nearby sensitive receptors on Buckhold Road. The immediate site area is relatively large and, whilst the shaft location may be fixed, ancillary plant should be sited as far as is practicable from surrounding sensitive receptors. Situating plant in the eastern area of the site would maximise the distance between them and the nearest sensitive receptors and minimise potential disturbance. Proposed 3m site boundary fencing would provide useful noise mitigation to some plant and construction activities however it would not provide any attenuation to higher floor levels of residential flats located at Park View Court. Vibration resulting from general construction works is not anticipated to result in an adverse impact. The nearest receptors to the proposed shaft location are at a distance of approximately 35m and it is unlikely that vibration levels would result in minor cosmetic damage during shaft sinking but may give rise to annoyance. Vibration from tunnelling should be Adherence to the good site practices provided in BS5228. Siting of noisy equipment and construction activities as far as is practicable from sensitive receptors.

Noise Site considerations Comments considered on a case by case basis at particular sensitive locations. Operation: With appropriate attenuation (if necessary), there is no reason why noise from the ventilation column and top chamber should result in adverse noise impacts to nearby sensitive receptors. Summary The site is considered suitable as either a small or a large CSO site as although the distance between the site and the nearest residential receptors at Park View Court is not large, the existing noise climate are moderately high due to existing road traffic on the A218 Buckhold Road. Any shielding afforded by the site perimeter barriers would be largely ineffectual due to the height of these receptors. Although it is anticipated there would be a large number of vehicles associated with the construction phase and the access route is proposed along Buckhold Road it is unlikely to cause an adverse noise impact due to a relatively small number of receptors along this road.
