Geotechnical survey objectives must be agreed to support palaeo-environmental analysis.


Response / where addressed in the PEIR


Further geotechnical survey programmes would be designed inclusive of archaeological objectives in line with the Offshore Geotechnical Investigations and Historic Environment Analysis (Emu 2011). Such surveys would be subject to a project specific WSI which will be prepared in accordance with the Model Clauses for Archaeological Written Schemes of Investigation (Wessex Archaeology and The Crown Estate 2010). See section 17.3.3.

If a gravity base design is adopted, consideration must be given to the direct impacts associated with the extent of sea bed preparation required for the installation of gravity base foundations. The preparation of the Written Scheme of Investigation should clarify the methodologies to address unavoidable impacts associated with the worst case scenario.

The following publications are to be used to inform this EIA exercise: Marine Aggregate Dredging and the Historic Environment: Guidance Note (British Marine Aggregate Producers Association and English Heritage, 2003); the Joint Nautical Archaeological Policy Committee Code of Practice for Sea bed Development (The Crown Estate, 2006) and Offshore Geotechnical Investigations and Historic Environment Analysis: Guidance for the Renewable Energy Sector (COWRIE, 2011).

The Historic Seascape Characterisation work undertaken by English Heritage should be used to inform the ES


These direct impacts are assessed as part of section 17.6. It is stated within this chapter that the forthcoming project specific Written Scheme of Investigation that will be prepared at the project application stage will outline mitigation measures which reduce the significance of unavoidable impacts which are addressed in association with potential archaeological receptors.


This chapter was informed by these publications (see section 17.4.1).


The historic seascape character baseline of the Study Area is presented in section 17.5.4 and was informed by the Newport to Clacton Historic Seascapes Characterisation project (Oxford Archaeology 2011).
