not only has this got to be stopped, but the underhanded way the whole process has happened so far is disgusting! !! only leaflet dropping some of the village. offering allotments no one wants.who will want to spend time in a community garden with that smell.retail park which will open sundays. no one will be able to even sit in their garden and get some peace! !!! WE dont want it! the people building it have said they wouldn't want it! This will destroy the village and must be stopped! !

Marchwood has its fair share of industry in the village with the likes of the sewage farm, industrial estate, Amenities tip, Power station and incinerator plus some of the processes locally that cause issues like the smell from the tanker washout site and the noise from the scrap metal heap across the sea in the dock. The road network in and out of the village is already struggling to cope and cannot take any more. Roads are already in bad repair due to the amount of HGV movement locally. The green fields of Corks Farm are the last remaining area of open space that meets the sea in the village. Building another industrial state and anaerobic digestion plant (AD plant) on this land has to be stopped. We do not need further industrial development in the village. AD plants are well known for the dangers associated with them. The smell when the process goes wrong is gut wrenching plus they are prone to exploding if the gas if not treated correctly or something goes wrong in the process. Plus being sited next to the sewage works has got to raise questions about whether they intend to process the sewage once they are in place (not been suggested by developers yet). In the plans they talk of an open public space to the water front yet they don’t own the water front area, they stop 30m (approx.) from it. No one wants an allotment on this land or a community orchard. The allotments will just be additionally unsightly and cause issues with smell, bonfire and livestock kept on them and potentially encourage more rodents to the area. The industrial units could be let to any business so again this could potentially cause smell, noise or light nuisance to the local residents. Marchwood has had enough and we do not want this development.

It is time for us to show that Marchwood will just not take any more of this type of development, the roads cannot take any more, we do not need any more industrial units, definitely no more waste disposal plants and the potential pollution. We must fight for this open space, it is the only open space along the Marchwood frontage to the River Test left.

Enough is enough with the build up of heavy industry in our village, traffic , ouder , the overwhelming waste facilities in the area and the increase of traffc. Enough is enough

It seems that many farms are accessing government grants to create these digestion plants to manage farm waste. It seems suspicious that the plans are to build a commercial site on Cork Farm. Which is not used as a farm. We deserve to have a thorough consultation and understand the impact not only on the homes of Marchwood, but the adjoining areas. The city of Southampton will also be effected. To destroy fields to create an industrial park when next door one lays under utilised is clearly wrong. Some useful links when you carry out a Google search. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-planning-policy-for-waste. http://www.biomassenergycentre.org.uk/portal/page?_pageid=75,17509&_dad=portal&_schema=portal. http://www.wrap.org.uk/category/subject/anaerobic-digestion. Overview The UK is obliged under the revised EU Waste Framework Directive to apply the waste hierarchy. This ranks waste management options in order of environmental preference and the first priority is waste reduction. Recovering energy from waste is only appropriate for waste that cannot be prevented, reused or recycled with less greenhouse gas emitted. Energy recovery can be a sustainable option for waste that would otherwise go to landfill and create landfill methane emissions. Conventional technologies Direct combustion (incineration) of dry biomass The heat generated by the following wastes can be used directly to warm homes and buildings or to generate electricity using a steam turbine, or both, through combined heat and power systems: direct combustion (incineration) of dry biomass waste such as wood waste, straw and poultry litter the biomass part of municipal waste some commercial and industrial wastes some construction and demolition wastes Where waste is combusted in a combined heat and power unit, it is possible to produce both heat and power at greater efficiencies. Combustion of waste-derived fuel The methane produced from landfill (landfill gas) is a waste-derived fuel.
