employ between 15 and 20 permanent staff. One of these will work a standard day, (for example
from 0830 to 1700 hours); the remaining staff will be split across two day shifts (0600 to 1400
hours and 1400 to 2200 hours).
Operational Vehicle Movements
12.32 In addition to staff arriving and leaving the site, it is expected that there will be two maintenance
trips per month. In addition, the movements outlined in Table 12.4 are anticipated.
