1.  The enactments for the time being in force with respect to compensation for the compulsory purchase of land apply, with the necessary modifications as respects compensation, in the case of a compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right or the imposition of a restrictive covenant as they apply as respects compensation on the compulsory purchase of land and interests in land.

2.—(1) Without limitation on the scope of paragraph 1, the Land Compensation Act 1973(30) has effect subject to the modifications set out in sub-paragraph (2) and (3).

(2) In section 44(1) (compensation for injurious affection), as it applies to compensation for injurious affection under section 7 (measure of compensation in case of severance) of the 1965 Act as substituted by paragraph 4—

(a) for the words “land is acquired or taken from” substitute “a right or restrictive covenant over land is purchased from or imposed on”; and

(b) for the words “acquired or taken from him” substitute “over which the right is exercisable or the restrictive covenant enforceable”.

(3) For section 58(1)(31) (determination of material detriment where part of house etc., proposed for compulsory acquisition), as it applies to determinations under section 8 (other provisions as to divided land) of the 1965 Act, substitute—

“(1) In determining under section 8(1) or 34(2) of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965, or section 166 (2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, whether—

(b) a right over or restrictive covenant affecting land consisting of a park or garden belonging to a house can be taken or imposed without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house,

the Upper Tribunal must take into account not only the effect of the acquisition of the right or the imposition of the restrictive covenant but also the use to be made of the right or restrictive covenant proposed to be acquire or imposed, and, in a case where the right or restrictive covenant is proposed to be acquired or imposed for works or other purposes extending to other land, the effect of the whole of the works and the use to be made of the other land.”

Application of the 1965 Act

3.—(1) The 1965 Act has effect with the modifications necessary to make it apply to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right, or to the imposition under this Order of a restrictive covenant, as it applies to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of land, so that, in appropriate contexts, references in that Act to land are read (accordingly to the requirements of the particular context) as referring to, or as including references to—

(a) the right acquired or to be acquired;

(b) the land over which the right is or is to be exercisable;

(c) the restrictive covenant imposed or to be imposed; or

(d) the land over which the restrictive covenant is or is to be enforceable.

(2) Without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (1), Part 1 (compulsory purchase under Acquisition of Land Act of 1946) of the 1965 Act applies in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right, or in relation to the imposition of a restrictive covenant, with the modifications specified in the following provisions of this Schedule.

4.  For Section 7 of the 1965 Act (measure of compensation) substitute—

“7.   In assessing the compensation to be paid by the acquiring authority under this Act, regard must be had not only to the extent (if any) to which the value of the land over which the right is to be acquired or the restrictive covenant is to be imposed is depreciated by the acquisition of the right or the imposition of the covenant but also to the damage (if any) to be sustained by the owner of the land by reason of its severance from other land of the owner, or injuriously affecting that other land by the exercise of the powers conferred by this or the special Act.”

5.  For section 8 of the 1965 Act (provisions as to divided land) substitute—

“6.— (1) Where in consequence of the service on a person under section 5 of this Act of a notice to treat in respect of a right over land consisting of a house, building or manufactory or of a park or garden belonging to a house (“the relevant land”)—

(a) a question of disputed compensation in respect of the purchase of the right or the imposition of the restrictive covenant would apart from this section fall to be determined by the Upper Tribunal (“the tribunal”); and

(b) before the tribunal has determined that question the tribunal is satisfied that the person has an interest in the whole of the relevant land and is able and willing to sell that land and—

(i) where that land consists of a house, building or manufactory, that the right cannot be purchased or the restrictive covenant imposed without material detriment to that land; or

(ii) where that land consist of such a park or garden, that the right cannot be purchased or the restrictive covenant imposed without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house to which that land belongs,

the York Potash Harbour Facilities Order 2016(32) (“the Order”), in relation to that person, ceases to authorise the purchase of the right and be deemed to authorise the purchase of that person’s interest in the whole of the relevant land including, where the land consists of such a park or garden, the house to which it belongs, and the notice is to be deemed to have been served in respect of that interest on such date as the tribunal directs.

(2) Any question as to the extent of the land in which the Order is deemed to authorise the purchase of an interest by virtue of subsection (1) of this section is to be determined by the tribunal.

(3) Where in consequence of a determination of the tribunal that it is satisfied as mentioned in subsection (1) of this section the Order is deemed by virtue of that subsection to authorise the purchase of an interest in land, the acquiring authority may, at any time within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the date of the determination, in accordance with section 31 of the 1961 Act withdraw the notice to treat in consequence of which the determination was made; but nothing in this subsection prejudices any other power of the authority to withdraw the notice.”

6.  The following provisions of the 1965 Act (which state the effect of a deed poll executed in various circumstances where there is no conveyance by persons with interests in the land), that is to say—

(a) section 9(4) (failure by owners to convey);

(b) paragraph 10(3) of Schedule 1 (owners under incapacity);

(c) paragraph 2(3) of Schedule 2 (absent and untraced owners); and

(d) paragraphs 2(3) and 7(2) of Schedule 4 (common land),

are modified so as to secure that, as against persons with interests in the land which are expressed to be overridden by the deed, the right which is to be compulsorily acquired or the restrictive covenant which is to be imposed is vested absolutely in the acquiring authority.

7.  Section 11(33) (powers of entry) of the 1965 Act is modified so as to secure that, as from the date on which the acquiring authority has served notice to treat in respect of any right it has power, exercisable in equivalent circumstances and subject to equivalent conditions, to enter for the purpose of exercising that right or enforcing that restrictive covenant (which is deemed for this purpose to have been created on the date of service of the notice); and sections 12(34) (penalty for unauthorised entry) and 13(35) (entry on warrant in the event of obstruction) of the 1965 Act are modified correspondingly.

8.  Section 20(36) (protection for interests of tenants at will etc.) of the 1965 Act applies with the modifications necessary to secure that persons with such interests in land as are mentioned in that section are compensated in a manner corresponding to that in which they would be compensated on a compulsory acquisition under this Order of that land, but taking into account only the extent (if any) of such interference with such an interest as is actually caused, or likely to be caused, by the exercise of the right or the enforcement of the restrictive covenant in question.

9.  Section 22 (interests omitted from purchase) of the 1965 Act is modified so as to enable the acquiring authority, in circumstances corresponding to those referred to in that section, to continue to be entitled to exercise the right acquired, or to enforce the restrictive covenant imposed, subject to compliance with that section as respects compensation.

(a) full details of the circumstances of the deposit must be notified to the MMO within 48 hours; and

(b) at the reasonable request of the MMO the unauthorised deposits must be removed at the undertaker’s expense.

40.  At least 10 working days before commencement of the licensed activities, the undertaker must submit to the MMO an audit sheet covering all aspects of the construction of the licensed activities or any phase of them. The audit sheet must include details of—

(a) loading facilities;

(b) vessels;

(c) equipment;

(d) shipment routes;

(e) transport;

(f) working schedules; and

(g) all components and materials to be used in the construction of the licensed activities.

41.  The audit sheet must be maintained throughout the construction of the licensed activities (or relevant phase) and must be submitted to the MMO for review at fortnightly intervals during periods of active offshore construction.

42.  In the event that the MMO becomes aware that any of the materials on the audit sheet cannot be accounted for, it must require the undertaker to carry out a side-scan sonar survey to plot all obstructions across a reasonable area of search agreed by the MMO where construction works and related activities have been carried out. Any obstructions that the MMO considers to be associated with the authorised development must be removed at the undertaker’s expense.

43.  As an alternative to the completion of an audit sheet, with approval from the MMO, the undertaker may introduce a dropped object procedure. If a dropped object procedure is introduced, any dropped objects must be reported to the MMO using the dropped object procedure form within 6 hours of the undertaker becoming aware of an incident. On receipt of the dropped object procedure form, the MMO may require relevant surveys to be carried out by the undertaker (such as side-scan sonar), and the MMO may require obstructions to be removed from the seabed at the undertaker’s expense.

44.  The undertaker must agree with the MMO, before commencement of works, whether the dropped object procedure or audit sheet is to be used.

45.  The undertaker must, at least 4 months before the completion of the construction of each phase of the authorised development, submit for the approval of the MMO a post construction maintenance schedule setting out details of the maintenance regime for that part of the authorised development below the level of high water.

46.  An update to the post construction maintenance schedule must be submitted for approval every 3 years unless the MMO waives such requirement.

47.  Maintenance must be carried out in accordance with the approved post construction maintenance schedule.

Lagoon Habitat Enhancement Works

48.  The undertaker must implement and comply with the lagoon habitat enhancement plan (including pre and post construction monitoring) approved under paragraph 7 and must monitor and maintain the lagoon habitat enhancement works in accordance with the lagoon habitat enhancement plan and the principles outlined in the mitigation and monitoring strategy and agreed with the MMO in consultation with Natural England, the Environment Agency and the local planning authority.

Progress of licensed activities

49.  The undertaker must keep the MMO informed of progress of the licensed activities including—

(a) notice of commencement of construction of the licensed activities within 24 hours of commencement having occurred;

(b) notice within 24 hours of any aids to navigation being established by the undertaker; and

(c) notice within 5 working days of completion of construction of each phase of the licensed activities.

Decommissioning

50.  No decommissioning of that part of the authorised development below the level of high water is to take place until a decommissioning plan has been submitted to the MMO not less than 3 months prior to the decommissioning and approved by the MMO, and until the MMO has advised the undertaker whether or not the works comprised in the decommissioning plan require a marine licence under the provisions of the 2009 Act; and for the avoidance of doubt this DML does not obviate the need for such licence to be obtained if it is required for the decommissioning works being undertaken.

Archaeology

51.—(1) No development is to commence until a programme of archaeological work including a written scheme of investigation has been submitted to and approved by the MMO. The programme must be submitted for approval at least 6 weeks prior to the commencement of works. The scheme must include a level 1 Building Recording of the “Seventh Buoy Light/Dolphin Mooring Bollard” prior to demolition; and monitoring of dredging works in the harbour area in the vicinity of borehole BHP6 to identify and analyse peat deposits. The scheme must include an assessment of significance and research questions, and—

4.—(1) The undertaker must not exercise the powers conferred by articles 15 (protective work to buildings), 16 (authority to survey and investigate the land), 20 (provision against danger to navigation), 21 (permanent lights on tidal works), 22 (power to charge), 30, (temporary use of land) or the powers conferred by section 11(3) (powers of entry) of the 1965 Act in respect of any railway property if such powers prevent pedestrian or vehicular access to any railway property, unless preventing such access is with the consent of Network Rail.

(2) The undertaker must not exercise the powers conferred by sections 271 (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers: preliminary notices) or 272 (extinguishment of rights of telecommunications code system operators: preliminary notices) of the 1990 Act, in relation to any right of access of Network Rail to railway property, but such right of access may be diverted with the consent of Network Rail.

(3) The undertaker must not under the powers of this Order acquire or use or acquire new rights over any railway property except with the consent of Network Rail.

(4) Where Network Rail is asked to give its consent under this paragraph, such consent must not be unreasonably withheld but may be given subject to reasonable conditions.

5.—(1) The undertaker must before commencing construction of any specified work supply to Network Rail proper and sufficient plans of that work for the reasonable approval of the engineer and the specified work must not be commenced except in accordance with such plans as have been approved in writing by the engineer or settled by arbitration.

(2) The approval of the engineer under sub-paragraph (1) must not be unreasonably withheld, and if by the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the date on which such plans have been supplied to Network Rail the engineer has not intimated disapproval of those plans and the grounds of disapproval the undertaker may serve upon the engineer written notice requiring the engineer to intimate approval or disapproval within a further period of 28 days beginning with the date upon which the engineer receives written notice from the undertaker. If by the expiry of the further 28 days the engineer has not intimated approval or disapproval, the engineer is to be deemed to have approved the plans as submitted.

(3) If by the end of the period of 28 days beginning with the date on which written notice was served upon the engineer under sub-paragraph (2), Network Rail gives notice to the undertaker that Network Rail desires itself to construct any part of a specified work which in the opinion of the engineer will or may affect the stability of railway property or the safe operation of traffic on the railways of Network Rail then, if the undertaker desires such part of the specified work to be constructed, Network Rail must construct it without unnecessary delay on behalf of and to the reasonable satisfaction of the undertaker in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to be approved or settled under this paragraph, and under the supervision (where appropriate and if given) of the undertaker for an agreed cost.

(4) When signifying approval of the plans the engineer may specify any protective works (whether temporary or permanent) which in the engineer’s opinion should be carried out before the commencement of the construction of a specified work to ensure the safety or stability of railway property or the continuation of safe and efficient operation of the railways of Network Rail or the services of operators using the same (including any relocation, de-commissioning and removal of works, apparatus and equipment necessitated by a specified work and the comfort and safety of passengers who may be affected by the specified works), and such protective works as may be reasonably necessary for those purposes must be constructed by Network Rail or by the undertaker, if Network Rail so desires, and such protective works are to be carried out at the expense of the undertaker in either case without unnecessary delay and the undertaker must not commence the construction of the specified works until the engineer has notified the undertaker that the protective works have been completed to the engineer’s reasonable satisfaction.

6.—(1) Any specified work and any protective works to be constructed by virtue of paragraph 5(4) must, when commenced, be constructed—

(a) without unnecessary delay in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to have been approved or settled under paragraph 5;

(b) under the supervision (where appropriate and if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer;

(c) in such manner as to cause as little damage as is possible to railway property; and

(d) so far as is reasonably practicable, so as not to interfere with or obstruct the free, uninterrupted and safe use of any railway of Network Rail or the traffic on it and the use by passengers of railway property.

(2) If any damage to railway property or any such interference or obstruction is caused by the carrying out of, or in consequence of the construction of a specified work, the undertaker must, regardless of any such approval, make good such damage and must pay to Network Rail all reasonable expenses to which Network Rail may be put and compensation for any loss which it may sustain by reason of any such damage, interference or obstruction.

(3) Nothing in this Schedule imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage, costs, expenses or loss attributable to the negligence of Network Rail or its servants, contractors or agents or any liability on Network Rail with respect of any damage, costs, expenses or loss attributable to the negligence of the undertaker or its servants, contractors or agents.

7.  The undertaker must—

(a) at all times afford reasonable facilities to the engineer for access to a specified work during its construction; and

(b) supply the engineer with all such information as the engineer may reasonably require with regard to a specified work or the method of constructing it.

8.  Network Rail must at all times afford reasonable facilities to the undertaker and its agents for access to any works carried out by Network Rail under this Schedule during their construction and must supply the undertaker with such information as it may reasonably require with regard to such works or the method of constructing them.

9.—(1) If any permanent or temporary alterations or additions to railway property, are reasonably necessary in consequence of the construction of a specified work, or during a period of 24 months after the completion of that work in order to ensure the safety of railway property or the continued safe operation of the railway of Network Rail, such alterations and additions may be carried out by Network Rail and if Network Rail gives to the undertaker reasonable notice of its intention to carry out such alterations or additions (which must be specified in the notice), the undertaker must pay to Network Rail the reasonable cost of those alterations or additions including, in respect of any such alterations and additions as are to be permanent, a capitalised sum representing the increase of the costs which may be expected to be reasonably incurred by Network Rail in maintaining, working and, when necessary, renewing any such alterations or additions.

(2) If during the construction of a specified work by the undertaker, Network Rail gives notice to the undertaker that Network Rail desires itself to construct that part of the specified work which in the opinion of the engineer is endangering the stability of railway property or the safe operation of traffic on the railways of Network Rail then, if the undertaker decides that part of the specified work is to be constructed, Network Rail must assume construction of that part of the specified work and the undertaker must, regardless of any such approval of a specified work under paragraph 5(3), pay to Network Rail all reasonable expenses to which Network Rail may be put and compensation for any loss which it may suffer by reason of the execution by Network Rail of that specified work.

(3) The engineer must, in respect of the capitalised sums referred to in this paragraph and paragraph 10(a), provide such details of the formula by which those sums have been calculated as the undertaker may reasonably require.

(4) If the cost of maintaining, working or renewing railway property is reduced in consequence of any such alterations or additions a capitalised sum representing such saving is to be set off against any sum payable by the undertaker to Network Rail under this paragraph.

10.  The undertaker must repay to Network Rail all reasonable fees, costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by Network Rail—

(a) in constructing any part of a specified work on behalf of the undertaker as provided by paragraph 5(3) or in constructing any protective works under the provisions of paragraph 5(4) including, in respect of any permanent protective works, a capitalised sum representing the cost of maintaining and renewing those works;

(b) in respect of the approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by him of the construction of a specified work;

(c) in respect of the employment or procurement of the services of any inspectors, signallers, watchkeepers and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, signalling, watching and lighting railway property and for preventing, so far as may be reasonably practicable, interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction or failure of a specified work;

(d) in respect of any special traffic working resulting from any speed restrictions which may in the opinion of the engineer, require to be imposed by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work or from the substitution of diversion of services which may be reasonably necessary for the same reason; and

(e) in respect of any additional temporary lighting of railway property in the vicinity of the specified works, being lighting made reasonably necessary by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work.

11.—(1) In this paragraph—

“EMI” means, subject to sub-paragraph (2), electromagnetic interference with Network Rail apparatus generated by the operation of the authorised development where such interference is of a level which adversely affects the safe operation of Network Rail’s apparatus; and

“Network Rail’s apparatus” means any lines, circuits, wires, apparatus or equipment (whether or not modified or installed as part of the authorised works) which are owned or used by Network Rail for the purpose of transmitting or receiving electrical energy or of radio, telegraphic, telephonic, electric, electronic or other like means of signalling or other communications.

(2) This paragraph applies to EMI only to the extent that such EMI is not attributable to any change to Network Rail’s apparatus carried out after approval of plans under paragraph 5(1) for the relevant part of the authorised works giving rise to EMI (unless the undertaker has been given notice in writing before the approval of those plans of the intention to make such change).

(3) Subject to sub-paragraph (5), the undertaker must in the design and construction of the authorised works take all measures necessary to prevent EMI and must establish with Network Rail (both parties acting reasonably) appropriate arrangements to verify their effectiveness.

(4) In order to facilitate the undertaker’s compliance with sub-paragraph (3)—

(a) the undertaker must consult with Network Rail as early as reasonably practicable to identify all Network Rail’s apparatus which may be at risk of EMI, and must continue to consult with Network Rail (both before and after formal submission of plans under paragraph 5(1)) in order to identify all potential causes of EMI and the measures required to eliminate them;

(b) Network Rail must make available to the undertaker all information in the possession of Network Rail reasonably requested by the undertaker in respect of Network Rail’s apparatus identified under sub-paragraph (a); and

(c) Network Rail must allow the undertaker reasonable facilities for the inspection of Network Rail’s apparatus identified under sub-paragraph (a).

(5) In any case where it is established that EMI can only reasonably be prevented by modifications to Network Rail’s apparatus, Network Rail must not withhold its consent unreasonably to modifications of Network Rail’s apparatus, but the means of prevention and the method of their execution must be selected in the reasonable discretion of Network Rail, and in relation to such modifications paragraph 5(1) has effect subject to this sub-paragraph.

(6) If at any time prior to the completion of the authorised development and regardless of any measures adopted under sub-paragraph (3), the testing or commissioning of the authorised works causes EMI then the undertaker must immediately upon receipt of notification by Network Rail of such EMI either in writing or communicated orally (such oral communication to be confirmed in writing as soon as reasonably practicable after it has been issued) cease to use (or procure the cessation of use of) the undertaker’s apparatus causing such EMI until all measures necessary have been taken to remedy such EMI by way of modification to the source of such EMI or (in the circumstances, and subject to the consent, specified in sub-paragraph (5)) to Network Rail’s apparatus.

(7) In the event of EMI having occurred—

(a) the undertaker must afford reasonable facilities to Network Rail for access to the undertaker’s apparatus in the investigation of such EMI;

(b) Network Rail must afford reasonable facilities to the undertaker for access to Network Rail’s apparatus in the investigation of such EMI; and

(c) Network Rail must make available to the undertaker any additional material information in its possession reasonably requested by the undertaker in respect of Network Rail’s apparatus or such EMI.

(8) Where Network Rail approves modifications to Network Rail’s apparatus under sub-paragraphs (5) or (6)—

(10) For the purpose of paragraph 10(a) any modifications to Network Rail’s apparatus under this paragraph is to be deemed to be protective works referred to in that paragraph.

(11) In relation to any dispute arising under this paragraph the reference in article 40 (arbitration) to the Institution of Civil Engineers is to be read as a reference to the Institution of Electrical Engineers.

12.  If at any time after the completion of a specified work, not being a work vested in Network Rail, Network Rail gives notice to the undertaker informing it that the state of maintenance of any part of the specified work appears to be such as adversely affects the operation of railway property, the undertaker must, on receipt of such notice, take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to put that specified work in such state of maintenance as not adversely to affect railway property.

13.  The undertaker must not provide any illumination or illuminated sign or signal on or in connection with a specified work in the vicinity of any railway belonging to Network Rail unless it must have first consulted Network Rail and it must comply with Network Rail’s reasonable requirements for preventing confusion between such illumination or illuminated sign or signal and any railway signal or other light used for controlling, directing or securing the safety of traffic on the railway.

14.  Any additional expenses which Network Rail may reasonably incur in altering, reconstructing or maintaining railway property under any powers existing at the making of this Order by reason of the existence of a specified work must, provided that 56 days’ previous notice of the commencement of such alteration, reconstruction or maintenance has been given to the undertaker, be repaid by the undertaker to Network Rail.

15.—(1) The undertaker must pay to Network Rail all reasonable costs, charges, damages and expenses not otherwise provided for in this Schedule which may he occasioned to or reasonably incurred by Network Rail—

(a) by reason of the construction or maintenance of a specified work or the failure of such a work; or

(b) by reason of any act or omission of the undertaker or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or others whilst engaged upon a specified work,

and the undertaker must indemnify and keep indemnified Network Rail from and against all claims and demands arising out of or in connection with a specified work or any such failure, act or omission: and the fact that any act or thing may have been done by Network Rail on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with plans approved by the engineer or in accordance with any requirement of the engineer or under his supervision does not (if it was done without negligence on the part of Network Rail or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or agents) excuse the undertaker from any liability under the provisions of this sub-paragraph.

(2) Network Rail must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand and no settlement or compromise of such a claim or demand is to be made without the prior consent of the undertaker.

(3) The sums payable by the undertaker under sub-paragraph (1) include a sum equivalent to the relevant costs.

(4) Subject to the terms of any agreement between Network Rail and a train operator regarding the timing or method of payment of the relevant costs in respect of that train operator, Network Rail must promptly pay to each train operator the amount of any sums which Network Rail receives under sub-paragraph (3) which relates to the relevant costs of that train operator.

(5) The obligation under sub-paragraph (3) to pay Network Rail the relevant costs is, in the event of default, enforceable directly by any train operator concerned to the extent that such sums are payable to that operator under sub-paragraph (4).

(6) In this paragraph—

“the relevant costs” means the costs, direct losses and expenses (including loss of revenue) reasonably incurred by each train operator as a consequence of any restriction of the use of Network Rail’s railway network as a result of the construction, maintenance or failure of a specified work or any such act or omission as mentioned in subparagraph (1); and

“train operator” means any person who is authorised to act as the operator of a train by a licence under section 8 (licences) of the Railways Act 1993.

16.  Network Rail must, on receipt of a request from the undertaker, from time to time provide the undertaker free of charge with written estimates of the costs, charges, expenses and other liabilities for which the undertaker is or will become liable under this Schedule (including the amount of the relevant costs mentioned in paragraph 15) and with such information as may reasonably enable the undertaker to assess the reasonableness of any such estimate or claim made or to be made under this Schedule (including any claim relating to those relevant costs).

17.  In the assessment of any sums payable to Network Rail under this Schedule no account is to be taken of any increase in the sums claimed that is attributable to any action taken by or any agreement entered into by Network Rail if that action or agreement was not reasonably necessary and was taken or entered into with a view to obtaining the payment of those sums by the undertaker under this Schedule or increasing the sums so payable.

18.  The undertaker and Network Rail may, subject in the case of Network Rail to compliance with the terms of its network licence, enter into, and carry into effect, agreements for the transfer to the undertaker of—

(a) any railway property shown on the works plans and land plans and described in the book of reference;

(b) any lands, works or other property held in connection with any such railway property; and

(c) any rights and obligations (whether or not statutory) of Network Rail relating to any railway property or any lands, works or other property referred to in this paragraph.

19.  Nothing in this Order, or in any enactment incorporated with or applied by this Order, prejudices or affects the operation of Part 1 of the Railways Act 1993.

20.  The undertaker must give written notice to Network Rail if any application is proposed to be made by the undertaker for the Secretary of State’s consent, under article 8 (consent to transfer benefit of Order) and any such notice must be given no later than 28 days before any such application is made and must describe or give (as appropriate)—

(a) the nature of the application to be made;

(b) the extent of the geographical area to which the application relates; and

(c) the name and address of the person acting for the Secretary of State to whom the application is to be made.

21.  The undertaker must no later than 28 days from the date that the plans submitted to and certified by the Secretary of State in accordance with article 38 (certification of plans etc.) are certified by the Secretary of State, provide a set of those plans to Network Rail in the form of a computer disc with read only memory.

Article 34

SCHEDULE 8 FOR THE PROTECTION OF NATIONAL GRID ELECTRICITY

3.  Except for paragraphs 7 (retained apparatus: protection) and 8 (expenses) which apply in respect of the exercise of all or any powers under this Order affecting the rights and apparatus of National Grid, the provisions of this Schedule do not apply to apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and National Grid are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 of the 1991 Act.

Acquisition of land

4.—(1) Regardless of any provision in this Order or anything shown on the land plans or contained in the book of reference, the undertaker must not acquire any land interest or apparatus or override any easement or other interest of National Grid otherwise than by agreement.

(2) As a condition of agreement between the parties in sub-paragraph (1), prior to the carrying out of any part of the authorised works (or within such other timeframe as may be agreed between the undertaker and National Grid) that are subject to the requirements of this Schedule that would cause any conflict with or breach the terms of any easement or other legal or land interest of National Grid or affects the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and National Grid in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to or secured by the undertaker, the undertaker must as National Grid reasonably requires enter into such deeds of consent, crossing agreements, variations to existing deeds of easements, agreements or such other legal interests in favour of National Grid or grant such new deeds of grant (upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker and National Grid acting reasonably and which must be no less favourable on the whole to National Grid unless otherwise agreed by National Grid) in order to verify, amend or replace the existing easements, agreements, enactments and other such interests so as to secure land rights and interests as are necessary to carry out, maintain, operate and use the apparatus in a manner consistent with the other terms of this Schedule; and it is the responsibility of the undertaker to procure or secure the consent and entering into of such deeds and variations by all other third parties with an interest in the land at that time who are affected by such authorised works.

(3) Where there is any inconsistency or duplication between the provisions set out in this Schedule relating to the relocation or removal of apparatus (including but not limited to the payment of costs and expenses relating to such relocation or removal of apparatus) and the provisions of any existing easement, rights, agreements and licences granted, used, enjoyed or exercised by National Grid or other enactments relied upon by National Grid as of right or other use in relation to the apparatus, then the provisions in this Schedule prevail.

Removal of apparatus

5.—(1) If, in the exercise of the agreement reached in accordance with paragraph 4 or in any other authorised manner, the undertaker acquires any interest in any land in which any apparatus is placed, that apparatus must not be removed under this Schedule and any right of National Grid to maintain that apparatus in that land must not be extinguished until alternative apparatus has been constructed, and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of the National Grid in accordance with sub-paragraphs (2) to (5).

(2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on, under or over any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, it must give to National Grid 56 days’ advance written notice of that requirement, together with a plan of the work proposed, and of the proposed position of the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed and in that case (or if in consequence of the exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order National Grid reasonably needs to remove any of its apparatus) the undertaker must, subject to sub-paragraph (3), afford to National Grid to its satisfaction (taking into account paragraph 8(1)) the necessary facilities and rights—

(a) for the construction of alternative apparatus in other land of or land secured by the undertaker; and

(b) subsequently for the maintenance of that apparatus.

(3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed elsewhere than in other land of or land secured by the undertaker, or the undertaker is unable to afford such facilities and rights as are mentioned in sub-paragraph (2), in the land in which the alternative apparatus or part of such apparatus is to be constructed, National Grid must, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances in an endeavour to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in the land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed except that this obligation does not extend to the requirement for National Grid to use its compulsory purchase powers to this end unless it elects to so do.

(4) Any alternative apparatus to be constructed in land of or land secured by the undertaker under this Schedule must be constructed in such manner and in such line or situation as may be agreed between the undertaker and National Grid.

(5) National Grid must, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed, and subject to the grant to National Grid of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraphs (2) or (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the promoter to be removed under the provisions of this Schedule.

Facilities and rights for alternative apparatus

6.—(1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, the undertaker affords to or secures for National Grid facilities and rights in land for the construction, use, maintenance and protection of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights must be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between National Grid and the undertaker and must be no less favourable on the whole to National Grid than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed unless otherwise agreed by National Grid.

(2) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker and agreed with National Grid under sub-paragraph (1) in respect of any alternative apparatus, and the terms and conditions subject to which those facilities and rights are to be granted, are less favourable on the whole to National Grid than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed and the terms and conditions to which those facilities and rights are subject, then the matter must be referred to arbitration in accordance with paragraph 13 (arbitration), and the arbitrator must make such provision for the payment of compensation by the undertaker to National Grid as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the particular case.

Retained apparatus: protection

7.—(1) Not less than 56 days before the commencement of any authorised works that are near to, or will or may affect, any apparatus the removal of which has not been required by the undertaker under paragraph 5(2) or otherwise, the undertaker must submit to National Grid a plan of the works to be executed and seek from National Grid details of the underground extent of their electricity tower foundations if relevant.

(2) The value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Schedule and which is not re-used as part of the alternative apparatus must be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1), that value being calculated after removal.

(3) If in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule—

(a) apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or

(b) apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with article 40 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to National Grid by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) is to be reduced by the amount of that excess except where it is not possible in the circumstances to obtain the existing type of apparatus at the same capacity and dimensions or place at the existing depth in which case full costs must be borne by the undertaker.

(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—

(a) an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus must not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and

(b) where the provision of a joint in a pipe or cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole is to be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

(5) An amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to National Grid in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1), if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on National Grid any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, is to be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.

Indemnity

9.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), if by reason or in consequence of the construction of any such works authorised by this Schedule or in consequence of the construction, use, maintenance or failure of any of the authorised development by or on behalf of the undertaker or in consequence of any act or default of the undertaker (or any person employed or authorised by the undertaker) in the course of carrying out such works, including without limitation works carried out by the undertaker under this Schedule or any subsidence resulting from any of these works, any damage is caused to any apparatus or alternative apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or property of National Grid, or there is any interruption in any service provided, or in the supply of any goods, by National Grid, or National Grid becomes liable to pay any amount to any third party, the undertaker must—

(a) bear and pay on demand the cost reasonably incurred by National Grid in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and

(b) indemnify National Grid for any other expenses, loss, demands, proceedings, damages, claims, penalty or costs incurred by or recovered from National Grid, by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption or National Grid becoming liable to any third party other than arising from any default of National Grid.

(2) The fact that any act or thing may have been done by National Grid on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with a plan approved by National Grid or in accordance with any requirement of National Grid or under its supervision does not (unless sub-paragraph (3) applies), excuse the undertaker from liability under the provisions of sub-paragraph (1) except where the undertaker fails to carry out and execute the works properly with due care and attention and in a skilful and professional manner or in a manner that does not accord with the approved plan.

(3) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) imposes any liability on the undertaker in respect of—

(a) any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the neglect or default of National Grid, its officers, servants, contractors or agents; and

(b) any authorised works or any other works authorised by this Schedule carried out by National Grid as an assignee, transferee or lessee of the undertaker and with the benefit of the provisions of this Order under section 156 of the 2008 Act subject to the proviso that once such works become apparatus, any authorised works yet to be executed and not falling within this sub-paragraph are subject to the full terms of this Schedule including this sub-paragraph.

(3) The undertaker must engage an independent construction Quality Assurance Inspector to oversee cats pipeline critical construction activities during the construction phase.

10.—(1) Where temporary crossings for construction traffic are to be used, other than where the pipelines are under a carriageway of adequate standard of construction, then the crossing points must be suitably reinforced with sleepers or road plates or a specially constructed reinforced concrete raft or by installing a temporary bridge over the pipeline as necessary.

(2) Details of proposed temporary crossing points referred to in sub-paragraph (1) must be notified to the owner and operator of the pipeline in accordance with paragraph 4.

11.  During construction, an area equivalent to the easement widths of the pipelines (taken from the actual location of the pipelines shown on the pipeline survey) must be fenced off using some form of visual indication such as netlon fencing or “heras” type fence panels. Suitable signage warning of the danger of live pipelines must be erected at a minimum distance of every 50 metres.

12.  No explosives are to be used within the protected land.

13.—(1) There must be no lifting over any exposed sections of the cats pipeline or live or vulnerable plant containing hazardous substances or pressure energy.

(2) Any construction works above the buried sections of the cats pipeline require the protection of the cats pipeline.

(2) Any proposed piling operations within—

(a) 10 metres either side of the centreline of the cats pipeline require the crown of the pipeline to be physically exposed, so its location can be confirmed with the asset operator or owner as appropriate and where within 2 metres of the centreline of the cats pipeline it must be exposed by hand digging only; and

(b) 5 metres either side of the centreline of the cats pipeline and, in addition to the obligations in paragraph 14(2)(a), require excavation to be carried out to a level below the depth of the pipeline, to ensure that no materials are present that could damage the pipeline if disturbed, in the presence of the asset owner or operator as appropriate.

(3) All excavations within 2 metres of the centreline of the cats pipeline must be hand dug.

15.—(1) Where excavation of trenches (including excavation by dredging) adjacent to a pipeline affects its support, the pipeline must be supported in a manner approved by the owner and operator of the relevant pipeline.

(2) Where the undertaker proposes to carry out excavations which might affect above ground structures such as pipeline supports in the pipeline corridor, the undertaker must calculate the zone of influence of those excavations and provide those calculations to the owner and operator of the pipeline under paragraph 4.

16.—(1) Where a trench is excavated across or parallel to the line of a pipeline, the backfill must be adequately compacted to prevent any settlement which could subsequently cause damage to the pipeline.

(2) Proposed methods and locations of compacting must be notified to the owner and operator of the pipeline in accordance with paragraph 4.

(3) Compaction testing must be carried out once back filling is completed to establish whether the backfill has been adequately compacted as referred to in sub-paragraph (1) and what further works may be necessary, and the results of such testing must be supplied to the owner and operator of the pipeline.

(4) Where it is shown by the testing under sub-paragraph (3) to be necessary, the undertaker must carry out further compaction testing under sub-paragraph (1) and sub-paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) continue to apply until such time as the backfill has been adequately compacted.

(5) In the event that it is necessary to provide permanent support to a pipeline which has been exposed over the length of the excavation before backfilling and reinstatement is carried out, the undertaker must pay to the owner or operator of the relevant pipeline a capitalised sum representing the increase of the costs (if any) which may be expected to be reasonably incurred in maintaining, working and, when necessary, renewing any such alterations or additions.

(6) In the event of a dispute as to—

(a) whether or not backfill has been adequately compacted under sub-paragraphs (1) to (4); or

(b) the amount of any payment under sub-paragraph (5),

the undertaker or the owner or operator of the relevant pipeline may refer the matter to an expert for determination under paragraph 34.

Construction of tidal works

7.—(1) The undertaker must give to the harbour master not less than 7 days’ prior written notice of its intention to enter upon a tidal area for any purpose relating to the construction or maintenance of the authorised development and must provide such details as the harbour master may reasonably require recording how access to the authorised development is to be gained and what exclusion areas are required for the authorised development.

(2) Where emergency or unanticipated access is required for maintenance, repair or safety operations to the authorised development and the undertaker is unable to give 7 days’ prior written notice to the Tees Port Authority, the undertaker may gain access to the tidal areas on giving such prior notice (if any) to the Authority as is reasonable in the circumstances.

(3) The undertaker must give written notice to the harbour master of the completion of the relevant phase within 14 days of completion of the tidal works carried out as part of phase 1 and phase 2.

8.  The undertaker must at all reasonable times during construction of the authorised development and afterwards upon reasonable notice, allow the Tees Port Authority, its employees and agents access and all reasonable facilities for inspection of any tidal work.

9.  The construction, and any operations for the construction, of any tidal work approved in accordance with this Order, once commenced, must be carried out by the undertaker without unnecessary delay and to the reasonable satisfaction of the Tees Port Authority so that river traffic, the flow or regime of the river and the exercise of the Tees Port Authority’s functions do not suffer more interference than is reasonably practicable, and an officer of the Tees Port Authority is entitled at all reasonable times, on giving such notice as may be reasonable in the circumstances, to inspect and survey such construction operations.

11.  The undertaker must not, in exercise of the powers conferred by article 14 (discharge of water), damage or interfere with the bed or banks of any watercourse forming part of the river unless such damage or interference is approved by the Tees Port Authority as a tidal work under this Order or is otherwise approved in writing by the Tees Port Authority.

Obstruction in river

12.  If any pile, stump or other obstruction to navigation becomes exposed in the course of constructing any tidal work (other than a pile, stump or other obstruction on the site of a structure comprised in any permanent work), the undertaker, as soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt of notice in writing from the Tees Port Authority requiring such action, must remove it from the river or, if it is not reasonably practicable to remove it—

(a) cut the obstruction off at such level below the bed of the river as the Tees Port Authority may reasonably direct; or

(b) take such other steps to make the obstruction safe as the Tees Port Authority may reasonably require.

Removal etc. of the Tees Port Authority moorings and buoys

13.  If—

(a) by reason of the construction of any tidal work it is reasonably necessary for the Tees Port Authority to incur reasonable costs in temporarily or permanently altering, removing, re-siting, repositioning or reinstating existing moorings or aids to navigation (including navigation marks or lights) owned by the Tees Port Authority, or laying down and removing substituted moorings or buoys, or carrying out dredging operations for any such purpose, not being costs which it would have incurred for any other reason; and

(b) the Tees Port Authority gives to the undertaker not less than 28 days’ notice of its intention to incur such costs, and takes into account any representations which the undertaker may make in response to the notice within 14 days of the receipt of the notice,

the undertaker must pay the costs reasonably so incurred by the Tees Port Authority.

Navigational lights, buoys, etc.

14.  In addition to any requirement under articles 19 (lights on tidal works etc. during construction) and 21 (permanent lights on tidal works), the undertaker, at or near every tidal work, and any other work of which the undertaker is in possession in exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order (being in either case a work which is below the level of high water forming part of the river), must exhibit such lights, lay down such buoys and take such other steps for preventing danger to navigation as the Tees Port Authority may from time to time reasonably require.

Removal of temporary works

15.  On completion of the construction of any part of the authorised development, the undertaker must as soon as practicable—

(a) remove any temporary tidal work carried out only for the purposes of that part of the authorised development; and

(b) remove from the river any materials, plant and equipment used for, and any debris caused by, such construction.

Protective action

16.—(1) If any tidal work—

(a) is constructed otherwise than in accordance with the requirements of this Schedule or with any condition in an approval given under paragraph 4; or

(b) during construction gives rise to sedimentation, scouring, currents or wave action which is a hazard to safe navigation or is otherwise detrimental to traffic in, or the flow or regime of, the river,

then the Tees Port Authority may by notice in writing require the undertaker at the undertaker’s own expense to comply with the remedial requirements specified in the notice.

(2) The requirements that may be specified in a notice given under sub-paragraph (1) are—

(a) in the case of a tidal work to which sub-paragraph (1)(a) applies, such requirements as may be reasonably required and specified in the notice for the purpose of giving effect to the requirements of—

(i) this Schedule; or

(ii) the condition that has been breached; or

(b) in any case within sub-paragraph (1)(b), such requirements as may be reasonably required and specified in the notice for the purpose of preventing, mitigating or making good the sedimentation, scouring, currents or wave action so far as required for safe navigation or by the needs of traffic in, or the flow or regime of, the river.

(3) If the undertaker does not comply with a notice under sub-paragraph (1), or is unable to do so, the Tees Port Authority may in writing require the undertaker to—

(a) remove, alter or pull down the tidal work, and where the tidal work is removed to restore the site of that work (to such extent as the Tees Port Authority reasonably requires) to its former condition; or

(b) take such other action as the Tees Port Authority may reasonably specify for the purpose of remedying the non-compliance to which the notice relates.

(4) If the Tees Port Authority believes that any tidal work is causing an environmental impact over and above those anticipated by any environmental document, the Tees Port Authority must notify the undertaker of that environmental impact, the reasons why the Tees Port Authority believes that the environmental impact is being caused by the tidal work and is an unacceptable impact and of measures that the Tees Port Authority reasonably believes are necessary to counter or mitigate that environmental impact.

(5) The undertaker must implement the measures that the Tees Port Authority has notified to the undertaker unless within 28 days of the notification the undertaker gives the Tees Port Authority a written counter-notice—

(a) specifying such other measures as the undertaker believes are necessary to counter or mitigate the environmental impact identified, giving reasons why the undertaker believes the measures are sufficient and preferable to the measures notified under sub-paragraph (4); or

(b) that it does not believe that any unacceptable environmental impact has been caused by tidal works it has carried out so that no measures are necessary.

(6) Subject to sub-paragraph (7), the undertaker must implement any measures specified under sub-paragraph (5)(a).

(7) Where the undertaker gives the Tees Port Authority a counter-notice under sub-paragraph (5)(a) or (b) the Tees Port Authority may within 28 days (or such longer period as may be agreed between the parties) refer the questions whether there is an unacceptable environmental impact and whether any, and if so what, measures are necessary to be carried out by the undertaker to counter or mitigate the impact to be determined under paragraph 28; and any measures so determined must be implemented by the undertaker.

Abandoned or decayed works

17.—(1) If any tidal work or any other work of which the undertaker is in possession in exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order (being in either case a work which is below the level of high water) is abandoned or falls into decay, the Tees Port Authority may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice either to repair or restore the work, or any part of it, or to remove the work and (to such extent as the Tees Port Authority reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

(2) If any tidal work is in such condition that it is, or is likely to become, a danger to or an interference with navigation in the river, the Tees Port Authority may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice—

(a) to repair and restore the work or part of it; or

(b) if the undertaker so elects, to remove the tidal work and (to such extent as the Tees Port Authority reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

(3) If after such reasonable period as may be specified in a notice under this paragraph the undertaker has failed to begin taking steps to comply with the requirements of the notice, or after beginning has failed to make reasonably expeditious progress towards their implementation, the Tees Port Authority may carry out the works specified in the notice and any expenditure reasonably incurred by it in so doing is recoverable from the undertaker.

Facilities for navigation

18.—(1) The undertaker must not in the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order interfere with any marks, lights or other navigational aids in the river without the agreement of the Tees Port Authority, and must ensure that access to such aids remains available during and following construction of any tidal works.

(2) The undertaker must provide at any tidal works, or must afford reasonable facilities at such works (including an electricity supply) for the Tees Port Authority to provide at the undertaker’s cost, from time to time, such navigational lights, signals, radar or other apparatus for the benefit, control and direction of navigation of users of the river in general as the Tees Port Authority may deem necessary by reason of the construction of any tidal works, and must ensure that access remains available to apparatus during and following construction of such works.

(3) The undertaker must comply with the directions of the harbour master from time to time with regard to the lighting on the tidal works or within the harbour, or the screening of such lighting, so as to ensure safe navigation on the river.

Survey of riverbed

19.—(1) Before the commencement of construction of the first tidal work, and any subsequent tidal work, to be constructed following approval under article 17 (tidal works not to be executed without approval of Secretary of State), the Tees Port Authority may, at the undertaker’s reasonable expense, carry out a survey of such parts of the river within the Order limits as might be affected by sedimentation, scouring, currents or wave action that might result from the construction of such of the authorised development as would constitute tidal works if it were to be constructed, for the purposes of establishing the condition of the river at that time.

(2) The Tees Port Authority may carry out such surveys of the river within the Order limits as are reasonably required during the construction of any tidal work to ascertain the effect of that tidal work on the river and the Tees Port Authority must make available to the undertaker the results of any such survey in electronic and paper format.

(3) After completion of—

(a) the tidal work comprised in phase 1; or

(b) all the tidal works constructed under this Order,

the Tees Port Authority may, at the undertaker’s reasonable expense, carry out a further survey of the parts of the river within the Order limits which were surveyed prior to the construction of that work, or as the case may be a survey of the completed tidal works as so constructed, for the purpose of establishing the condition of the river and the effect that the tidal work is, or as the case may be the tidal works are, having on navigation, the flow and the regime of the river and the exercise of the Tees Port Authority’s functions.

Sedimentation, etc.: remedial action

20.—(1) This paragraph applies if any part of the river becomes subject to sedimentation, scouring, currents or wave action which—

(a) is wholly or partly caused by a tidal work during the period beginning with the commencement of the construction of that tidal work and ending with the expiration of 10 years after the date on which all the tidal works constructed under this Order are completed; and

(b) for the safety of navigation or for the protection of works in the river, should in the reasonable opinion of the Tees Port Authority be removed or made good.

(2) The undertaker must either—

(a) pay to the Tees Port Authority any additional expense to which the Tees Port Authority may reasonably be put in dredging the river to remove the sedimentation or in making good the scouring so far as (in either case) it is attributable to the tidal work; or

(b) carry out the necessary dredging at its own expense and subject to the prior approval of the Tees Port Authority, such prior approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and the reasonable expenses payable by the undertaker under this paragraph include any additional expenses accrued or incurred by the Tees Port Authority in carrying out surveys or studies in connection with the implementation of this paragraph.

Entry for survey, etc.

(a) the construction, operation or maintenance of the authorised development carried out within or affecting the area within the relevant TPA limits of jurisdiction or any failure of the authorised development including in particular any expenses reasonably incurred in considering plans, inspecting tidal works, carrying out surveys or doing anything for the purposes of this Schedule;

(b) any other activity or operation authorised by this Order which affects the river or any functions of the Tees Port Authority as harbour authority or which is carried out within the relevant TPA limits of jurisdiction and, in particular, anything done in relation to a mooring or buoy under paragraph 14; or

(c) any act or omission of the undertaker, its employees, contractors or agents or others whilst engaged upon the construction, operation or maintenance of the authorised development carried out within or affecting the area within the relevant TPA limits of jurisdiction or dealing with any failure of such development,

and the undertaker must indemnify the Tees Port Authority from and against all claims and demands arising out of or in connection with the authorised development carried out within or affecting the area within the relevant TPA limits of jurisdiction and any activity or operation authorised by this Order carried out within or affecting the area within the relevant TPA limits of jurisdiction or any such failure, act or omission.

(2) The fact that any act or thing may have been done—

(a) by the Tees Port Authority on behalf of the undertaker; or

(b) by the undertaker, its employees, contractors or agents in accordance with plans or particulars submitted to or modifications or conditions specified by the Tees Port Authority, or in a manner approved by the Tees Port Authority, or under its supervision or the supervision of its duly authorised representative,

does not (if it was done or required to be done without negligence on behalf of the Tees Port Authority or its duly authorised representative, employee, contractor or agent) excuse the undertaker from liability under the provisions of this paragraph.

(3) The Tees Port Authority must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand as is referred to in sub-paragraph (1), and no settlement or compromise of any such claim or demand is to be made without the prior consent of the undertaker.
