• “tidal work” includes dredging authorised by this Order or any marine licence granted under Part 4 of the 2009 Act relating to the authorised development.

General

2

For the protection of AB Ports in relation to the harbours the following provisions have effect unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and AB Ports.

Acquisition or use of port land

3

• (1) The undertaker must not under the powers conferred by this Order acquire or use, or acquire new rights over, port land without the consent of AB Ports.

• (2) The undertaker must not exercise powers conferred by article 15 (authority to survey and investigate the land) or the powers conferred by section 11(3) of the 1965 Act (powers of entry) in respect of any port land without the consent of AB Ports.

• (3) Article 25 (power to override easements and other rights) does not apply to any rights held by AB Ports for the purpose of its statutory undertaking, except with the consent of AB Ports.

• (4) The consent of AB Ports under this paragraph must not be unreasonably withheld but may be given subject to reasonable conditions.

Approval of plans and arrangements

4

• (1) Before commencing the construction of any specified work, the undertaker must furnish to AB Ports plans of that work for its approval.

• (2) Before decommissioning the generating station comprised in the authorised development the undertaker must furnish to AB Ports for its approval proposed arrangements for the removal or retention of the authorised development and for making it safe and managing it after it has ceased to be used for the generation of electricity.

• (3) Any approval of AB Ports under this paragraph—

• (a) must not be unreasonably withheld;

• (b) may be given subject to such reasonable requirements as AB Ports may make for the protection of the harbours and navigation within the harbours and the approaches to the harbours, including a requirement for the undertaker to carry out protective works at its own expense;

• (c) may not vary the operation of this Order.

• (4) The undertaker must—

• (a) carry out any specified work and any protective works required under sub-paragraph (3) in accordance with the plans approved under sub-paragraph (1) or settled under article 50 (arbitration); and

• (b) comply with any arrangements approved under sub-paragraph (2) or settled under article 50 (arbitration).

• (5) If AB Ports fails to express its disapproval of any plans or arrangements within 56 days after they have been delivered to it under sub-paragraph (1) or (2), it is deemed to have approved them.

• (6) Nothing in this paragraph affects the operation of article 42 (application of Energy Act 2004 in relation to decommissioning) or a decommissioning programme approved under that article.

Notice of works

5

The undertaker must give to AB Ports not less than 56 days’ written notice of its intention to commence the construction of a specified work and, not more than 14 days after completion of such construction, must give to AB Ports written notice of such completion.

Inspection

6

The undertaker must at all reasonable times during construction of a specified work and thereafter allow AB Ports, its servants and agents, access to such work and all reasonable facilities for inspection of any such work subject always to the reasonable stipulations of the undertaker relating to health, safety, security and confidentiality.

Temporary works

7

• (1) After the purpose of any temporary works has been accomplished the undertaker must with all reasonable dispatch, or after a reasonable period of notice in writing from AB Ports requiring the undertaker so to do, remove any such temporary works or any materials relating to them which may have been placed on port land or below the level of high water within the harbours or the approaches to the harbours by or on behalf of the undertaker.

• (2) If the undertaker fails to do so within a reasonable period after receiving such notice, AB Ports may remove the same and may recover the reasonable costs of doing so from the undertaker.

Erosion or accumulation

8

• (1) If during the construction of a tidal work or after the completion of that work and wholly or partly in consequence of its construction there is caused or created an accumulation or erosion the undertaker, if so requested by AB Ports acting reasonably, shall remedy such accumulation or erosion to the extent attributable to such construction and, if it refuses or fails to do so, AB Ports may itself cause the work to be done and may recover the reasonable cost of doing so from the undertaker.

• (2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)—

• (a) in the case of an accumulation, the remedy shall be its removal; and

• (b) in the case of erosion, the remedy shall be the carrying out of such reconstruction works and other protective works or measures as AB Ports reasonably requires.

• (3) In the event that surveys, inspection, tests and sampling carried out pursuant to paragraph 12(1)(b) establish that such accumulation or erosion would have been caused in any event by factors other than the construction of a tidal work, the undertaker shall be liable to remedy such accumulation or erosion only to the extent that the same is attributable to such construction.

• (4) Nothing in this paragraph removes the need for a marine licence under Part 4 of the 2009 Act.

Lighting, etc.

9

The undertaker shall pay to AB Ports the reasonable costs of such alterations to the marking and lighting of the harbours and the approaches to the harbours as may be necessary in consequence of the construction of a tidal work.

Abandoned or decayed works

10

• (1) If any tidal work or any other work of which the undertaker is in possession in exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order is abandoned or falls into decay, insofar as it affects or otherwise impacts upon the operation of the harbours or navigation in the approaches to the harbours, AB Ports may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice either to repair or restore the work, or any part of it, or to remove the work and (to such extent as AB Ports reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

• (2) If any tidal work is in such condition that it is, or is likely to become, a danger to or an interference with navigation, AB Ports may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice—

• (a) to repair and restore the work or part of it; or

• (b) if the undertaker so elects, to remove the tidal work and (to such extent as AB Ports reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

• (3) If after such reasonable period as may be specified in a notice under this paragraph the undertaker has failed to begin taking steps to comply with the requirements of the notice, or after beginning has failed to make reasonably expeditious progress towards their implementation, AB Ports may carry out the works specified in the notice and any expenditure reasonably incurred by it in so doing is recoverable from the undertaker.

• (4) This provision shall not apply where any work is being managed and operated in accordance with any approval given by AB Ports.

• (5) In the event of a difference or dispute between the undertaker and AB Ports as to the necessity of any steps or works specified in a notice by AB Ports under this paragraph, such difference or dispute shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with article 50 (arbitration).

• (6) Nothing in this paragraph affects the operation of article 42 (application of Energy Act 2004 in relation to decommissioning), or a decommissioning programme approved under that article.

Byelaws

11

The undertaker must consult AB Ports not less than 42 days before making any byelaw under article 47 (byelaws) and shall not make any byelaw which in the reasonable opinion of AB Ports conflicts with any byelaws made by AB Ports or with any powers exercisable by AB Ports or a harbour master of AB Ports for the regulation of navigation at the harbours or the approaches to the harbours.

Indemnity

12

34

• (1) Where any street is stopped up under article 10 (temporary stopping up of streets), the protected person whose apparatus is in the street or accessed via that street shall be entitled to the same rights in respect of such apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker will grant to the protected person legal easements reasonably satisfactory to the protected person in respect of such apparatus and access to it prior to the stopping up of any such street or highway.

• (2) Notwithstanding the temporary stopping up or diversion of any street under the powers in article 10 (temporary stopping up of streets), the protected person is at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such stopped up street or to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such street as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable it to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that highway.

Protective works to buildings

35

• (1) The undertaker, in the case of the powers conferred by article 14 (protective work to buildings), shall so exercise those powers as not to obstruct or render less convenient the access to any apparatus without the written consent of the protected person and, if by reason of the exercise of those powers any damage to any apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal or abandonment) or property of the protected person or any interruption in the supply of electricity by the protected person is caused, the undertaker shall bear and pay on demand the cost reasonably incurred by that protected person in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and, subject to sub-paragraph (2), shall—

Acquisition of land

36

This Order does not authorise the acquisition or extinguishment of land or rights in land or override any interest in land owned by the protected person that is or are required for the retention or maintenance of any retained apparatus except with the agreement of the protected person which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Removal of apparatus

37

• (1) If, in the exercise of the agreement reached in accordance with paragraph 36 or in any other authorised manner, the undertaker acquires any interest in any land in which any apparatus is placed, that apparatus shall not be removed under this Part and any right of the protected person to maintain that apparatus in that land shall not be extinguished until alternative apparatus has been constructed, and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of the protected person in accordance with sub-paragraphs (2) to (6).

• (2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on, under or over any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, it shall give to the protected person 56 days’ advance written notice of that requirement, together with a plan of the work proposed, and of the proposed position of the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed and in that case (or if in consequence of the exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order the protected person reasonably needs to remove any of its apparatus) the undertaker shall, subject to sub-paragraph (3), afford to the protected person to their satisfaction (taking into account paragraph 38(1)) the necessary facilities and rights for—

• (a) the construction of alternative apparatus in other land of the undertaker; and

• (b) subsequently for the maintenance of that apparatus.

• (3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed elsewhere than in other land of the undertaker, or the undertaker is unable to afford such facilities and rights as are mentioned in sub-paragraph (2) in the land in which the alternative apparatus or part of such apparatus is to be constructed, the protected person shall, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances in an endeavour to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in the land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed save that this obligation shall not extend to the requirement for the protected person to use its compulsory purchase powers to this end unless it elects to so do.

• (4) Any alternative apparatus to be constructed in land of the undertaker under this Part shall be constructed in such manner and in such line or situation as may be agreed between the protected person and the undertaker.

• (5) The protected person shall, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed, and subject to the grant to the protected person of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraph (2) or (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed under the provisions of this Part.

• (6) Where there is any inconsistency or duplication between the provisions set out in this Part relating to the relocation or removal of apparatus (including but not limited to the payment of costs and expenses relating to such relocation or removal of apparatus) and the provisions of any existing easements rights agreements or licences granted, used, enjoyed or exercised by the protected person as of right or otherwise in relation to the apparatus then the provisions of this Part prevail.

Facilities and rights for alternative apparatus

38

• (1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Part, the undertaker affords to the protected person facilities and rights for the construction and maintenance in land of the undertaker of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights shall be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker and the protected person and shall be no less favourable on the whole to the protected person than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed unless agreed by the protected person.

• (2) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker and agreed with the protected person under sub-paragraph (1) in respect of any alternative apparatus, and the terms and conditions subject to which those facilities and rights are to be granted, are less favourable on the whole to the protected person than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed and the terms and conditions to which those facilities and rights are subject in the matter shall be referred to arbitration and, the arbitrator shall make such provision for the payment of compensation by the undertaker to that protected person as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the particular case.

Retained apparatus: protection

39

• (b) shall not be unreasonably withheld.

• (5) In relation to a work to which sub-paragraph (2) applies, the protected person may require such modifications to be made to the plans as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of securing its system against interference or risk of damage or for the purpose of providing or securing proper and convenient means of access to any apparatus.

• (6) Works executed under this Order shall be executed only in accordance with the plan, submitted under sub-paragraph (1) or as relevant sub-paragraph (5), as amended from time to time by agreement between the undertaker and the protected person and in accordance with such reasonable requirements as may be made in accordance with this sub-paragraph by the protected person for the alteration or otherwise for the protection of the apparatus, or for securing access to it, and the protected person shall be entitled to watch and inspect the execution of those works.

• (7) Where the protected person requires any protective works to be carried out either themselves or by the undertaker (whether of a temporary or permanent nature) such protective works shall be carried out to the protected persons’ satisfaction prior to the commencement of any authorised development (or any relevant part thereof) and the protected persons shall give 56 days’ notice of such works from the date of submission of a plan in line with sub-paragraph (1) or (5) (except in an emergency).

• (8) Nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 56 days before commencing the execution of any works, a new plan, instead of the plan previously submitted, and having done so the provisions of this paragraph apply to and in respect of the new plan.

• (9) The undertaker is not required to comply with sub-paragraph (1) where it needs to carry out emergency works as defined in the 1991 Act but in that case it shall give to the protected person notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan of those works and shall—

• (f) the survey of any land, apparatus or works, the inspection and monitoring of works or the installation or removal of any temporary works reasonably necessary in consequence of the execution of any such works referred to in this Part.

• (2) There shall be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1) the value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Part and which is not re-used as part of the alternative apparatus, that value being calculated after removal.

• (3) If in accordance with the provisions of this Part—

• (a) apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or

• (b) apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or in default of agreement settled by arbitration in accordance with article 50 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to the protected person by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) shall be reduced by the amount of that excess save where it is not possible in the circumstances to obtain the existing type of operations, capacity, dimensions or place at the existing depth in which case full costs shall be borne by the undertaker.

• (4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—

• (a) an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus shall not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and

• (5) An amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to the protected person in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) shall, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the protected person any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.

Indemnity

41

• (1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), if by reason or in consequence of the construction of any such works authorised by this Part or in consequence of the construction, use, maintenance or failure of any of the authorised development by or on behalf of the undertaker or in consequence of any act or default of the undertaker (or any person employed or authorised by it) in the course of carrying out such works, including without limitation works carried out by the undertaker under this Part or any subsidence resulting from any of these works, any damage is caused to any apparatus or alternative apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or property of the protected person, or there is any interruption in any service provided, or in the supply of any goods, by the protected person, or the protected person becomes liable to pay any amount to any third party, the undertaker shall—

• (a) bear and pay on demand the cost reasonably incurred by the protected person in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and

• (b) indemnify the protected person for any other expenses, loss, demands, proceedings, damages, claims, penalty or costs incurred by or recovered from the protected person, by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption or the protected person becoming liable to any third party as aforesaid.
