229. There is one wreck site of non-British nationality within the 2012 survey area assessed as part of this PEIR; a Belgian vessel (WA70609). This wreck is an A1 receptor and is located within the area in which there is an overlap between the East Anglia ONE buffer and the East Anglia THREE offshore cable corridor. A further three vessels of non-British nationality are located within the area of the East Anglia THREE offshore cable corridor not covered by the 2012 survey area, comprising two Danish vessels (WA72455 and WA 73218) classified as a A1 and A3 receptors respectively and one Romanian vessel (WA72390) classified as an A1 receptor. These wrecks were also considered as part of the East Anglia ONE ES. On the basis that all direct impacts were to be prevented through the implementation of archaeological exclusion zones, no transboundary impacts were identified in association with these known wreck sites.


230. It is possible that potential wrecks and aircraft of foreign nationality within East Anglia THREE and the offshore cable corridor may be impacted. However, the archaeological assessment of pre-construction geophysical survey reduces this likelihood and embedded mitigation (ORPAD) will address unexpected discoveries, thus reducing the significance of this impact to an acceptable level. If wrecks or aircraft from other EU member states are discovered during the course of the proposed project, further advice would be sought regarding the legal status of the remains in their country of origin.


231. The predicted changes to the baseline physical environment are not anticipated to be of sufficient magnitude or geographical extent to result in any indirect transboundary impacts upon archaeology and cultural heritage receptor groups.


17.9 Inter-relationships 232.


Inter-relationships exist between offshore archaeology and cultural heritage and the assessments undertaken for Chapter 7 Marine Geology, Oceanography and Physical Processes and Chapter 14 Commercial Fisheries. These chapters inform this assessment in terms of providing additional information regarding specific impacts, as detailed below and summarised in Table 17.29.
