Representation ID: 1442

Received: 25/07/2008

Respondent: Mrs J Greenwood

Representation Summary:

The additional use of discharge into Eastwood/Prittlewell Brooks is an environmental worry for any expansion. Also the number of anticipated flights at say 40, implies 40 out - which could also mean 40 in. The noise pollution for any increase in flights, not just in the immediate area, but also in areas of Leigh would be unbearable considering the height at which the planes would, and already do, pass ovehead particularly over schools under the flight path.Not to mention the increase in road traffic which is already a problem.
