Site is crossed by FM05 high pressure gas pipline. We require that no permanent structures are built over or under pipelines or within the zone specified in the agreements, materials or soil are not stacked or stored on top of the pipeline route and that unrestricted and safe access to any of our pipeline(s) must be maintained at all times. Local authorities have a statutory duty to consider applications for development in the vicinity of high pressure (above 7 bar) pipelines and to advise the developer on whether the development should be allowed on safety
grounds on rules provided by HSE. Should these sites be taken forward as development sites in the future, the developers should be made aware of the above issues.
