I would like to list the following concerns about Sizewell C. I believe the fragile coastal landscape adjacent to areas of cultural heritage and amenity will all be adversely affected by the Sizewell C proposal. I believe the Sizewell C proposal will have a catastrophic impact on the well established Suffolk tourist industry equating to a loss of 400 m a year to the local economy. I also think the increased noise, light pollution and traffic movements will all have a huge and detrimental impact on local communities. The proposed road based transport is not viable and the years of increased traffic would have unacceptable impact on many local villages and communities. There will be enormous impact on the surrounding environment and landscape, especially at Minsmere which is a designated site of international importance. Drainage, flooding and ground water levels will all be impacted by a development of this scale. I believe the damage to marine ecology, coastal erosion and recession will be immense. I wish to endorse the Relevant Representation submitted by Stop Sizewell C. I wish to state that I consider the Sizewell C application to be totally unsuitable for a digital examination process.
