Embedded Mitigation Parameter
General
It is anticipated that the onshore cable would be decommissioned (de-energised) and most likely the cables left in-situ. However where cables have been installed in pre- installed ducts (future phases) it may prove possible to extract the cables relatively easily during the decommissioning phase
Construction/ Decommissioning
Decommissioning of Joint Transition Pits - Assume left in situ
Detailed working plans for works in or near designated habitats that would be developed and agreed in consultation with Local Planning Authorities.
Development of an Ecological Management Plan (EcMP) for successful delivery of ecological mitigation. The EcMP would be agreed with the Local Planning Authorities pre- construction and would include all general (e.g. use of toolbox talks) and site specific mitigation.
Development of a Species Protection Plan (SPP) that would ensure that the protected species are adequately protected
Where possible, construction work areas would be accessed using existing tracks and road (to be developed as part of the Access Management Plan).
Landfall Avoid impact to a UK and Suffolk BAP Avoiding vegetated shingle at landfall. Construction Horizontal Directional Drill (HDD) at landfall. Temporary works would be within a single field with existing road access.
priority habitat that is part of the Suffolk Shingle Beaches County Wildlife Site

The excavated material from the trenches (earth/sand/shingle) would be stockpiled on the Minimise Impact fields or beach for short periods but re-laid to match existing profiles.
