3.1.2 Non-statutory designated sites 16. 77 non-statutory designated sites have been identified within 2km of the onshore cable route (EAOW 2012b). However, due to the careful selection of the onshore cable route, the majority of non-statutory sites are avoided. Therefore of the sites located within 100m of the onshore cable route, only 4 are crossed. Non-statutory sites within 100m of the onshore cable route are listed below:
• Suffolk Shingle Beaches CWS; • Millers Wood ASNW & CWS; • Seckford Hall Campsite CWS; • River Gipping (Sections) CWS; • The Mill River CWS; • Fore and Bushey Groves CWS; • Lumber Wood ASNW & CWS; • Welham's Meadow CWS; • Bullen Wood ASNW & CWS; • Round Wood and Elms Grove ASNW & CWS; • Meadow Cottage Wood CWS; • Playford Reservoir CWS; • Newbourne Springs Meadows CWS; • Suffolk Water Park CWS; and • Newbourne Springs SWT.
17. Non statutory sites crossed by the onshore cable route:
• Millers Wood ASNW & CWS; • River Gipping (Sections) CWS; • The Mill River CWS; and • Suffolk Shingle Beaches CWS.
18. Millers Wood ASNW & CWS, River Gipping (Sections) CWS and The Mill River CWS will be crossed using trenchless methods such as horizontal directional drilling (HDD), thus avoiding direct impacts. Suffolk Shingle Beaches CWS will be crossed using other techniques.
19. Two non-statutory designated sites were located within 2km of the Indicative Converter Station location; Fore and Busy Groves CWS and Bullen Wood ASNW and CWS.
