Potential Impact Receptor Operational Impacts


Impact 1: increased noise on residential receptors at the landfall and along the onshore cable route


Impact 2: increased noise on residential receptors from the converter station operating concurrently at 100% capacity

Decommissioning As construction


180. No cumulative construction impacts are considered likely as the construction of the first and subsequent projects will take place separately. No concurrent working is anticipated. Consequently the cumulative impacts have been identified for the operational phase resulting from the noise emissions from up to three converter stations located close together. None of the cumulative impacts identified during the operational phase of the project (Table 26.33) are considered to be significant..
