Prior Notification (Agricultural) - A balanced cut and fill earthmoving operation to create an irrigation reservoir. The natural clay from the site will be engineered to form a water proof lining. The water stored will be pumped from the IDB pump draining the marshes whcih would otherwise be pumped to waste in the North Sea. Why necessary for agriculture: At present vegetable production on the hihgher light land on the farm is limited by the availability of irrigation water. This development is part of a project to use the water pumped to waste by the Internal Drainage Board in a number of reservoirs in this area which will allow a larger area of irrigated cropping, primarily potatoes, carrots and onions. Why designed for agriculture: The reservoir site is adjacent to the existing infrastructure across the farm.
