d. In view of the low-lying nature of this area and the flood map which shows very flood-prone areas just between here and the river, it is essential that SuDS do NOT discharge water into the ground. There are gravels under the wider area which have been extracted in places, and water runs under the railway and out at ground level on Chesterton Fen in places. As much rainwater as possible to be used on-site.
We see no mention of stormwater retention, balancing ponds to achieve greenfield runoff (or sewage farm runoff) rates etc. This must be addressed.

Some sort of CHP plant may be appropriate.
1.b.Municipal organic waste processing could be a very antisocial neighbour. Milton currently suffers from smells from putrefied organic waste in landfill, and we would not wish this area to be a dumping ground for antisocial industrial processes - put these away from residential areas.

In Chapter 5, we wanted to comment that we are concerned that an aggregates depot, loading lorries for the A14 improvement work, may cause unnecessarily loud noise for residents of both Chesterton Fen and Milton if the loading is at a level higher than the natural ground level. Whilst we approve of this work being done in a way that does not impact on the traffic on Milton Road, it mustn't be allowed to impact on people's amenity.
If a left-turn-off left-turn-on route is made west of the railway then it should continue beside the A14 to join Cowley Road.
