Relevant Representation of Sarah Leach to the Planning Inspectorate with regard to the Development Consent Order (DCO) submitted by EDF for the development of Sizewell C. My name is Sarah Leach [Redacted] situate approximately 500 metres from the proposed Sothern Park and Ride (SP&R) site. My concerns with the Sizewell C development are not only directed towards the SP&R, but also with the development overall. These concerns are as follows: 1. SP&R a) I consider that the site of the SP&R is inappropriate. b) EDF have not provided sufficient evidence to address concerns with regard to the following: i) Air pollution ii) Light pollution iii) Noise pollution c) Bunding – in the DCO application the proposals for bunding of the SP&R is inadequate. d) Traffic volumes – the increased traffic will impact on my enjoyment of my property and the area. e) Landscape and visual impacts – EDF have failed to produce evidence to mitigate the effect that the construction of the SP&R will have on these aspects. Please bear in mind that the site will be operative 20 hours a day, seven days a week for 10 to 12 years. 2. General a) Increased traffic along the A12 b) The development will seriously impact on tourism. c) The Sizewell C development will have a cumulative detrimental effect when considered in conjunction with the Scottish Power development at Friston d) EDF have, throughout the consultation stages and in the DCO application, failed to provide sufficient information to enable myself and local residents to arrive at an informed decision on their proposals. I wish to endorse the Relevant Representations submitted by the Hacheston, Marlesford and Wickham Market Parish Councils. I further wish to state that I consider the Sizewell C application to be totally unsuitable for a digital examination process. Sarah Leach 28th September 2020.
