Bank and bed material would be stored during construction to aid reinstatement.


The timing of the works would be carefully selected and periods of low flow would be chosen wherever practicable.


Measures to minimise impacts due to sediment release or pollution would be implemented and open-cut crossings would be completed in the shortest time possible. However, flume bridges would be in place for the duration of the construction period. At crossings a 5m strip of vegetation would be retained to act as a natural buffer.


Post Construction 82


If required post construction monitoring of water quality would take place within watercourses, this would be agreed with the Environment Agency (Main Rivers), Lead Local Flood Authority or Internal Drainage Board (Ordinary Watercourses).


83


Bank and bed materials removed for construction would be stored separately and replaced in the reverse order in which they were removed, to promote the re-establishment of appropriate habitat.

Trees and shrubs would be replanted and the reinstated areas would be fenced off to prevent damage (including poaching) by livestock.


Geotextile matting would be used, wherever necessary, to reinforce banks during reinstatement.


Other Habitats Baseline


Detailed baseline relating to Other Habitats is provided in Volume 3, Section 24.5.2.11 of the ES. Arable Field Margins is a UKBAP and Suffolk LBAP Priority Habitat, however only low value examples are present along the Onshore Cable Route . Habitat information is included in Appendix 24.2 of the ES which details the Phase 1 report.
