Planning for Air Quality
Development Control: Planning for Air Quality – 2010 Update
Environmental Protection UK has updated the popular guidance 'Development Control: Planning for Air Quality' for 2010.
The document provides guidance to help ensure that air quality is properly accounted for in the development control process. The update represents a significant rewrite to cover changes to the air quality management and planning processes since the last update in 2006, and takes account of a number of new documents issued since the previous version, including the 2007 Air Quality Strategy.
A more detailed description of changes to the guidance over the previous version can be found in the Executive Summary.
The guidance can be downloaded from the link below:
To accompany the guidance we have set up a library of supplementary planning documents adopted by local authorities, and planning appeals where air quality has been a consideration. Please use the links below to access these:
