(b) in respect of the approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by the engineer of the construction or repair of a specified work and any protective works;

(c) in respect of the employment during the construction of the specified works or any protective works of any inspectors, watchmen and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, watching and lighting any waterway and for preventing, so far as may be reasonably practicable, interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction or failure of the specified works or any protective works; and

(d) in bringing the specified works or any protective works to the notice of users of CRT's network.

(e) in constructing and/or carrying out any measures related to any specified works or protective works which are reasonably required by CRT to ensure the safe navigation of the waterway save that nothing is to require CRT to construct and/or carry out any measures.

(2) If CRT considers that a fee, charge, cost or expense will be payable by the undertaker pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), CRT will first provide an estimate of that fee, charge, cost or expense and supporting information in relation to the estimate to the undertaker along with a proposed timescale for payment for consideration and the undertaker may, within a period of twenty-one days—

(a) provide confirmation to CRT that the estimate is agreed and pay to CRT, by the date stipulated, that fee, charge, cost or expense; or

(b) provide confirmation to CRT that the estimate is not accepted along with a revised estimate and a proposal as to how or why the undertaker considers that the estimate can be reduced and or paid at a later date.

(3) CRT must take in to account any representations made by the undertaker in accordance with this paragraph 30 and must, within twenty-one days of receipt of the information pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), confirm the amount of the fee, charge, cost or expense to be paid by the undertaker (if any) and the date by which this is to be paid.

(4) CRT must, when estimating and incurring any charge, cost or expense pursuant this paragraph 30, do so with a view to being reasonably economic and acting as if CRT were itself to fund the relevant fee, charge, cost or expense.
