The noise problem for Manston being Ramsgate right at the end of the runway and all the time the acceptable level of noise decreasing, partly because of scientific research and partly because of people putting up with less. <br /><br />Added to this is that a DCO can only be for a massive level of expansion on existing capacity so the noise and other pollution is probably seen as new pollution. One thing saying “we are making a lot of noise, which is damaging to concentration levels, attainment in schools, productivity in local commerce, but we are presenting noise mitigation plans to reduce it” another thing altogether to say “we are going to make a lot of noise that wasn’t there before” <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-70449804737500899942018-01-06T09:42:01.592+00:002018-01-06T09:42:01.592+00:00Ramsgate Conservation Area compensation cost for R...Ramsgate Conservation Area compensation cost for RSP Cargo Hub project probably not priced in.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14985420916149766450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-3237659076724133352018-01-05T21:13:49.236+00:002018-01-05T21:13:49.236+00:00John a few early thoughts, I’m a slow thinker and ...John a few early thoughts, I’m a slow thinker and will have a better idea when I have slept on it.<br /><br />I think the most significant aspect is the avoiding of the particulate pollution mortality issue, I would think if that one backfired there could be compensation implications for everyone involved including pins and the government. <br /><br />Pins seem to be saying that they don’t know the basic criteria, minimum number of freight flights to qualify for a DCO, but that it is somewhere between 10,000 and 20,000 pa and that they will decide when the application is submitted and so it goes on, no clear bar height for rsp to jump over with the land and blight compensation package either. <br /><br />My own take is that the London third runway build up to the DCO for that is likely to nearest the mark and that the probable land and blight compensation amounts would be huge and out of all proportion to any profit that could be made out of aviation activity at Manston. <br /><br />I can see advantages for pins in developing an approach to an airport DCO using one that looks completely unviable.<br /><br />RSP have published their statement of community consultation today, which says they will notify all of the residents of Ramsgate and Herne Bay by post. How this relates to such small venues open for just one day seems just bonkers to me.<br /><br />This boils down to individually telling 40,000 Ramsgate people about an event which has room for 50 people and will doubtless lead to complaints. <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-85661000479236346422018-01-05T18:39:02.124+00:002018-01-05T18:39:02.124+00:00Nope I'm in Wethespoons with my family, so hav...Nope I'm in Wethespoons with my family, so haven't even read it properlyMichael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-18056399519866292062018-01-05T18:06:29.367+00:002018-01-05T18:06:29.367+00:00Are you yet in a position to let us have your conc...Are you yet in a position to let us have your conclusions following from you correspondence with PINS?John Holyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02284672912775316883noreply@blogger.com
