201 Mr M Thomas
Local water networks are old and archaic. New development has increased demands to area and water pressure has
dropped in many regions of Hockley and Hawkwell. This compounded cost saving treatment reduction resulting in harder
water scaling up our networks and appliances. Improvement required.
202 K Cardnell Should be a requirement
No. Pressure should be placed on the people that now own these utility co. to improve the standards and cap wages paid ie
M.D's/share holders. Local authority should be addressing the sewerage system locally in view of the increase in housing

205 Mrs Whitham We are the driest corner of England. How can we supply water to all the houses, buildings that are going up.
Energy conservation is important. Why do we have this feeble attitude towards the possiblities, that offers advice on
warming water to those whose houses have hot water tanks, but no surveys and advice to those who have large areas of
roof facing the right way to catch all the sunlight our warming climate can offer, but have direct, on demand hot water
systems. So far, I have not been able to find a company in Essex that offers the advice, installation and servicing of
suitable systems, so I cannot consider them. When it comes to water conservancy, why are such valuable watersupplies as
those provided by natural springs still being voided into storm drains when the land above them is crying our for irrigation?
This area is full of natural springs. What has happened to them all? Schemes to use our local resources better could do a

Encourage use of water butts. Discourage wasteful car washes, ornamental garden fountains. Discourage all night
domestic outside lighting. Street lights to be angled downwards to light road, pavement, crossing, not bedrooms. Eg new
crossing Hockley Southend Road needed one light at each end - not one light present in 1999 with sad result - but now has
12 huge lights, few used, but apparently complained of result by 2 residents. Better ones - those attached to posts in Main

208 I Gyres Less population growth would ease the consumption of these resources
We do not have enough reservoirs as it is - and gas pressure at peak times reaches an all time low, especially during the

winter months.
More efford should be put into using renewable types of constructable developments, solar panels, good insulation, yes
provision for rain water storage. Even considering individual energy wind turbines or larger to serve a number of properties.
211 Mr B W Williams Clearly conservation is a high priority.
I find that if more power and energy is needed more power stations are also needed before there are concerns on where to
put it. I would probably position it between Canewdon and the coast of Foulness Iland. This is an urgent call for power in
212 Master J Richards Rochford District or neighbouring boroughs and districts.
Should encourage but have in place minimum requirements which are reasonable and sensible. Far too often planners use
213 Mr M Wheeler
requirements such as energy efficiency to act as a deterrent rather than assist and help.
Do not know, we have to conserve energy, water is a problem if most of water companies are owned by overseas countries
215 Mr T R Thompson who do not spend enough on maintaining areas.
219 Mr J Amey Encourage and offer incentives to switch to energy saving devices or to use part solar in residential/industrial units.
I believe we should encourage solar panels and wind turbines. I also think that infill where infrastructure is in place should
220 Mrs S Clarke
be foremost in planning for the future.
222 R Luck Encouragement is the key. Requirements only serve to annoy people.
223 C Morris Help people to use solar power financially. Enforce water meters use in all areas.
