Vibration 25.9 Summary


129. This section summarizes the main findings of this impact assessment, as outlined in Table 22.13 below.


130. There is potential for archaeological sites or artefacts from the prehistoric period through to the modern day to be present within the Development Area and these remains may range in value and sensitivity from low to high. The extent of impact on any potential buried archaeological remains during the construction phase will depend on the scenario eventually adopted.


131. East Anglia THREE would commit to a Written Scheme of Investigation (WSI) in line with that proposed for the East Anglia ONE development. This embedded mitigation strategy would ensure that all identified heritage assets are either preserved in situ or subject to avoidance through re-routeing of the cable, or preservation by record through an appropriate scheme of archaeological recording. This will results in impacts of minor or negligible significance.


132. There is potential for as yet unknown buried archaeological remains to be present within the Development Area and the extent and significance of some recorded assets is uncertain. The agreed WSI would mitigate impacts on these assets, by allowing the presence and nature of any archaeological features or deposits to be confirmed, avoided if necessary or, where more appropriate, preserved by record through a scheme of archaeological recording. This embedded mitigation strategy will reduce the impact on these assets to a minor or negligible effect.


133. Some loss of historic hedgerows is anticipated during the construction phase however mitigation measures such as re-instatement will be considered and set out in an outline landscape and ecological management strategy (OLEMS) and should result in a negligible impact.


134. Potential effects to the setting of a heritage asset were only identified at the convertor station location and this can be effectively mitigated by enhancement of
