19.—(1) No part of the licensed activities shall commence until, following consultation with the Environment Agency, full details of a scheme for minimising the impact of the cooling water intake system within the Humber Estuary on the aquatic environment have been submitted to and approved in writing by the MMO. The submitted scheme shall include—

(d)proposals for implementing the scheme in advance of the commencement of commercial operations;

(e)proposals for monitoring and reporting on the effectiveness of the scheme and, in the event that the scheme does not perform as predicted, a process for any necessary remedial action being approved by the MMO and thereafter implemented within a stated timescale following such approval,

and no part of the construction of the cooling water intake shall take place from the inter-tidal area.

(2) The undertaker shall implement the scheme as approved.

(3) The undertaker shall—

(a)mark and light the licensed activities (including any temporary construction works comprised in the licensed activities) as required by Trinity House, as the MMO directs; and

(b)at all times maintain any aids to navigation to the reasonable satisfaction of Trinity House.
