Thank you again for taking the time to comment and feedback on our proposal for the Crouch Solar Farm.
It hasn’t been easy to know if we have consulted in the right way, we would have much preferred to meet and greet you all in person and then be able to answer your questions directly. However, due to the restrictions in place regarding COVID-19, we were unable to do this.
We have worked through all the comments received either through the post, email, telephone or online and have compiled the Consultation Report. You can now find this on the project website .
It is of great interest to see the sentiment of the proposal. Where we have seen concerns arising, we have endeavoured to provide a better explanation of what we are seeking to achieve, for instance, with regards to having a Construction and Traffic Management Plan for construction, or the biodiversity improvements to the site. This is detailed further in the Consultation Report.
We have chosen to submit a planning application; the Consultation Report will be included in that application. This application should be available to view on both Basildon and Brentwood Borough Councils websites where you can keep up to date and comment on the application (we have provided a link from our project website ). We shall also continue to share periodic updates on this website as and when there is something significant to update. If you have registered for updates, then you shall continue to receive them too, if you would like to register for updates, please email us and we can add your email.
If you have further questions, please do email us at crouchsolarfarm@aecom.com and one of the project team will come back to you.
Kind regards
