EXPP: PROTECTED STRUCTURE: The proposal for which Section 5 declaration is sought (applied for a development of Class 21 of Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Planning and Development Regulation, 2001, as already indicated) consists on 2 (Front and Rear) single storey E-Houses that will have the following features: The Front E-house is to be located at the entrance of the site, to the North boundary, beside the recently approved ESB Sub-Station and MV and will be a 11,860 x 3,780mm single storey 45m² steel structure (prefabricated Hitachi E-house), metal cladded and insulated to meet current relevant regulations and technical requirements, fixed onto a purpose-built reinforced concrete base slab. Adjacent ESB Substation and Switch Room were submitted under Planning Reference No. 3435/22, with Final Grant of Permission obtained on 06.01.2021. The Rear E-house is to be located near to the South-Eastern corner of the subject site and will be a 14,860 x 3,780mm single storey 56m² steel structure (prefabricated Hitachi E-house), metal cladded and insulated to meet current relevant regulations and technical requirements, fixed onto a purpose-built reinforced concrete base slab. Both proposed E-houses are to be painted/powder coated with matching colour as the newly adjacent ESB substation, for consistency in order to reduce any visual impact. An E-House is defined for this application as an Electrical Equipment Room, which could also be defined more extensively as: a modular walk-in assembled outdoor enclosure to house low to medium voltage switchgear and secondary electrical equipment.
