Environmental Policy 22

- pollution of sea, surface water or groundwater;
- emissions of airborne pollutants; and
- vibration, odour, noise or light pollution.
7.17.2 In addition to the above, changes in the activities associated with the current permitted use of land or a building, which in themselves do not constitute development and therefore do not require planning permission, can have an adverse impact on adjacent properties by virtue of noise, light or general disturbance. For example the addition of security lighting on a property may cause light pollution affecting adjacent properties and the wider area. The introduction of new activities into established parks and recreation areas can have an impact on neighbours. In such cases the Department would advocate the person or organisation considering the change to give careful consideration to the potential impact of such activity in terms of location, siting and design.
