The UK planning system has stated that the impact on air quality is a material consideration when determining a planning application. The actual weight given to air quality when deciding a planning application is dependent on a several factors depending on the size and scale of the development.
The content of an Air Quality Management Assessment will vary depending on whether a basic or detailed air quality statement is required.
It should describe measures to mitigate impacts to an acceptable level, with mitigation measures appropriate to the scale of the development.
All Air Quality Assessments should comply with the GLA policy The Control of Dust and Emissions During Demolition and Construction 2014.
Sites identified as having a high or medium dust impact risk, real-time dust (PM10) monitoring is mandatory, using MCERTS ‘Indicative’ monitoring equipment.
A site requiring real-time dust monitoring must conduct a three-month baseline monitoring period before any construction or demolition activities can commence on site
The following could be included in a report:
