Erosion or accumulation

23.—(1) If during the construction of a tidal work or after the completion of that work and wholly or partly in consequence of its construction there is caused or created an accumulation or erosion within the harbour or approaches to the harbour that is likely to be detrimental to navigation, the undertaker, if so requested by Neath Port Authority acting reasonably, shall remedy such accumulation or erosion to the extent attributable to such construction and, if it refuses or fails to do so, Neath Port Authority may itself cause the work to be done and may recover the reasonable cost of doing so from the undertaker.

(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)

(a)in the case of an accumulation, the remedy shall be its removal; and

(b)in the case of erosion, the remedy shall be the carrying out of such reconstruction works and other protective works or measures as Neath Port Authority reasonably requires.

(3) In the event that surveys, inspection, tests and sampling carried out pursuant to paragraph 26(1)(b) establish that such accumulation or erosion would have been caused in any event by factors other than the construction of a tidal work, the undertaker shall be liable to remedy such accumulation or erosion only to the extent that the same is attributable to such construction.

(4) Nothing in this paragraph removes the need for a marine licence under Part 4 of the 2009 Act.
