Dr I cant work out what you want?
onedesk have you gone through this nice little earner for authorities staring at their own bellybuttons.
http://www.planarch.org/downloads/librar...report.pdf
I only wonder as I am still not sure what an EIA should do or be....which is kind of important before taking them on
It seems to me that this self appointed EU funded mob came up with EIAs are great so we have nothing to worry about and could be slightly better if the poor authority archaeologist was given more time to liase(this conclusion was achieved by putting things in databases which seems to be the flavour of most of the system funded projects nowadays - HLC) âwhat I did not like about the exercise is that they concentrated on EIAs which were always going to go to public inquires and this meant that the EIAs were massively improved EIAs so that they could be defended publicly. Not really your run of the mill dodgy EIA that you get on pipelines.
Examples of EIA dodgy doodos âall topsoil stripping will be monitored by an archaeologistâ
- Seems like a nice sort but what did they mean by topsoil stripping. Could it mean 300mm no matter what and stripped by seven bulldozers spread over half a kilometre? Then thereâs the bog mat mitigation thatâs always in there- strip open the site put a bog mat track through it put your pipe in and then when everybody has gone away reinstate the spread âwhich means that while the subsoil is open rip up the ground with a 1 metre deep iron ripper pulled by a D9 and to make sure do it again when the top soil is down.
We could have a whats not in the EIA section as well like should it be mentioned that the post ex will be put out to tender
