Mitigation measures embedded into the project design


accordance with industry standard practice as agreed with the utility owners. The continuity of water supplies during the construction works would be ensured.


Construction – agricultural features


Construction – soil handling


Prompt reinstatement of fences, and re-planting sections of hedgerows, hedgebanks, ditches and culverts removed or disturbed during construction (see Chapter 23 Ecology).


The preparation and implementation of a CoCP throughout the construction works to include:


 The separate storage of topsoil and excavated materials, to prevent mixing of subsoil and topsoil, thus improving reinstatement.


 Minimising excavation volumes and disturbance to the surrounding areas, together with the replacement of any soils inadvertently disturbed during excavations in general accordance with their original structure and location.


 The setting of vehicular speeds along the construction access routes tominimise soil trafficking.


An Outline CoCP will be submitted in support of the DCO application Construction - PRoW


Various commitments to PRoW with regards to duration of closures and provisions of alternative routes.


A pre-construction survey of the affected PRoW, including those to be used for access, would be undertaken prior to construction.


County council would require details of the scheme communications strategy and Parish Councils and councillors of the proposals and work programme.


Applications for legal orders for PRoW temporary closures and diversions would be made at least 3 months prior to construction to allow for administration and statutory advertising time; and


Sections of PRoWs affected by the works would be reinstated to existing condition or better following the works.


Alternative routes would be put in place for all PRoWs crossed and would be maintained to a standard agreed with the local authority. An Outline CoCP (see Appendix 5.1) will be submitted in support of the DCO application


Operation -maintenance


Suitable maintenance (typically 5 years for hedgerows along the cable route and 10 years on the converter station location) of any newly planted sections of hedgerow, shelterbelts and woodlands following construction.


Converter Station No embedded mitigation further to the general measures listed above.
