The details shall include schedules of plants, noting species, plant sizes and proposed numbers/densities, an implementation programme, and details of written specifications including cultivation and other operations involving tree, shrub and grass establishment. The scheme shall include the planting of a hedge along the southern and western boundaries of the land. The scheme shall ensure: a) Completion of the approved landscape scheme within the first planting season following the completion of the development. b) Any trees, shrubs or plants that die or become seriously damaged within five years of the commencement of the development shall be replaced by trees or shrubs of similar size and species to those originally required to be planted. Reason: To ensure the implementation of a satisfactory scheme of landscaping which will, in due course, improve the quality of the development in accordance with Policies G2, G6, C9 and H18 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.

That the development shall not take place until the Local Planning Authority are satisfied that contamination has been investigated and remedial action agreed by the Local Planning Authority. The site shall then not be occupied until the following action is implemented and approved by the Local Planning Authority. i. "The following measures (a-d) shall be undertaken to investigate and remediate any contamination on the site prior to commencement of the development: a) A desk study shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This study shall be conducted fully in line with the approach indicated in BS 10175: 2001 (Investigation of potentially contaminated sites - code of practice). The study shall include the identification of all previous site uses, potential contaminants that might reasonably be expected given those uses and other relevant information. If contamination is suspected at the site the information obtained must then be used to formulate an initial conceptual model for the site including all potential contaminant sources, pathways and receptors. b) Where contamination is identified as having the potential to be present in a) above, proposals for a site investigation to characterise the site must be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This proposal shall be designed having regard to the approved desk study and BS 10175. It should be clear about what information it seeks to obtain and how this will refine the initial conceptual model for the site. c) The approved site investigation referred to on b) above shall be fully implemented and a report submitted to the Local Planning Authority for written approval. The report shall be in line with BS 10175 and detail the works undertaken to characterise the site and contain a refined conceptual model in the light of the results of the investigation. N.B. If the Local Planning Authority is not satisfied that the site has been adequately characterised after the first stage of investigation, further works will be required to clarify any remaining uncertainties. d) Where unacceptable levels of contamination are identified, a remediation scheme shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall incorporate details of the procedures and documentation employed to validate the remediation measures identified in c) above. ii. Prior to occupation of the site, the approved remediation and validation schemes in d) above shall be fully implemented and a report submitted and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Reason: To ensure that any ground and water contamination is identified and adequately addressed to ensure the safety of the development, the environment and the public and ensure that the site is suitable for the proposed use in accordance with Policy EP8 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan.
