No. 138
Malta ENVIRONMENT AND PLANNING AUTHORITY
Notification of Exemption of Environmental Planning Statement
In conformity with Regulation 3(8) of the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations (Legal Notice 114 of 2007), and in view of the fact that MEPA has determined that the proposal is unlikely to have significant environmental impacts, the Director of Environment Protection agrees that the proposal does not require the preparation of an Environmental Planning Statement (EPS).
The Project Description Statement (PDS) presented as part of the application has considered the environmental issues in a sufficient manner such that the preparation of an EPS would not add any new information and MEPA has all the necessary information to determine the application. From the information presented in the PDS and screening according to Schedule IB of the same Regulations, the proposal is not likely to have significant environmental effects.
A detailed justification is presented below:
Reference Number: PA 05672/09 and PA 05904/09
Location: Quarry 18, Ta’ l-Għarix, Triq is-Siġġiewi, Qrendi
Proposal: PA 05672/09: To construct three overlying industrial garages in an existing soft stone quarry. (Two upper garages already approved).
PA 05904/09: To construct garages for the storage of equipment/machiner in relation to quarrying activity.
The following potential environmental impacts were identified and mitigation measures proposed in the Project Description Statement (PDS) submitted to MEPA on the 25th July, 2013 and the justification for proposal from carrying out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) submitted on 31st July, 2013.
Potential ImpactsRemarks on mitigation measures, etc.
Land use: The proposed garages, intended solely for the storage of quarrying equipment and vehicles, are located within an operational soft stone quarry.The structures are not envisaged to exceed the existing road level thus there is no significant environmental impacts from a visual point of view. Being temporary, the proposal is not considered to hinder the ultimate restoration of the site back to agricultural land (as approved in PA 03834/04). This is on the understanding that the garages are used in relation to the quarrying activity and are dismantled on cessation of the mineral extraction (estimated quarrying extraction lifetime is c. 20 years).
Groundwater: The site falls within an Aquifer Protection Zone and in the vicinity of a Water Catchment Area (South Malta Local Plan Policy SMCO 08).During operation, the proposals are likely to generate waste related to the servicing of the stored quarrying vehicles and equipment.Impacts to the aquifer will be mitigated through measures including bunded areas and impervious ground to avoid/contain spillages and accidental leaks. Reservoirs are being proposed to collect surface water runoff originating from the site.Impacts on the aquifer are not likely to be significant as long as measures are duly taken to avoid any likely negative effects on the groundwater.
Waste Management: A number of abandoned vehicles and scrap metal are present on site, posing a pollution hazard, particularly noting that the site is within an aquifer protection zone. This will require appropriate disposal in accordance with legislation and an approved cleaning method statement. Both proposals shall not be considered further until a cleaning method statement is adequately prepared to MEPA’s satisfaction.
Notwithstanding the above, the Malta Environmental and Planning Authority reserves the right to request the applicant to submit additional information as may be necessary to determine the application.
