Thank you for your email.  Please note that ONR’s land use planning processes published at Land use planning | Office for Nuclear Regulation may apply to some of the developments within the Cheshire West and Chester - Local Plan.  If you are a Local Authority or neighbourhood with areas that are within an ONR consultation zone please be aware that in order for ONR to have no objections to such developments we will require:  confirmation from relevant Council emergency planners that developments can be accommodated within any emergency plan required under the Radiation (Emergency Preparedness and Public Information) Regulations 2019; and that the developments do not pose an external hazard to the site.
