“preliminary navigational risk assessment” means the document of that description listed in Schedule 16 (documents to be certified) and certified by the Secretary of State as the preliminary navigational risk assessment and, in connection with any ground investigations in the river Thames, means the “Lower Thames Crossing Ground Investigations Navigational Risk Assessment” (which forms Appendix F of the preliminary navigational risk assessment);

“specified function” means any function of the undertaker under this Order (except any function under article 25 (compulsory acquisition of land), article 28 (compulsory acquisition of rights and imposition of restrictive covenants), article 33 (acquisition of subsoil or airspace only)) the exercise of which may affect the river Thames or any function of the PLA;

“specified work” means any part of the authorised development (which for this purpose includes the removal of any part of the authorised development), which—

including any projection over the river Thames by any authorised work or any plant or machinery or any dredging (as defined in the 1968 Act) in the river Thames;

“temporary outfall” means the temporary outfall in the river Thames referenced in paragraph 5(2)(a) of Schedule 15 (deemed marine licence) to this Order; and

“tunnelling works” means so much of Work No. 4A as is carried out wholly under the bed of the River Thames.

Approval of detailed design (excluding the tunnelling works)

98.—(1) The undertaker must not exercise any specified function or begin the construction of any specified work until plans of the work or function have been approved in writing by the PLA, but the PLA’s approval is not required under this paragraph for any tunnelling works forming part of a specified work.

(2) The undertaker must submit to the PLA plans of the specified work or specified function and such further particulars as the PLA may, within 20 business days starting with the day on which the plans are submitted under this sub-paragraph, reasonably require, and the particulars so supplied are to provide all information necessary to enable the PLA to determine whether approval should be given and, if so, whether conditions should be imposed.

(3) Insofar as the plans submitted under sub-paragraph (2) include a navigational risk assessment, the undertaker must consult the Port of Tilbury London Limited on that assessment prior to submission under sub-paragraph (2) and that assessment must be in all material respects in accordance with the preliminary navigational risk assessment (including where relevant the incorporation of embedded risk controls and additional risk controls identified in the preliminary navigational risk assessment) unless otherwise agreed by the PLA.

(4) Any approval of the PLA required under this paragraph must not be unreasonably withheld but may be given subject to such reasonable modifications, terms and conditions as the PLA may make for the protection of—

(7) An approval of the PLA under this paragraph is not deemed to have been unreasonably withheld if approval within the time limited by sub-paragraph (6) has not been given pending the outcome of any consultation on the approval in question that the PLA is obliged to carry out in the proper exercise of its functions.

(8) The undertaker must carry out all operations for the construction of any specified work or the specified function without unnecessary delay and to the reasonable satisfaction of the PLA so that traffic in, or the flow or regime of, the river Thames, and the exercise of the PLA’s functions, do not suffer more interference than is reasonably practicable. The PLA is entitled at all reasonable times, on giving such notice as may be reasonable in the circumstances, to inspect and survey those operations and the undertaker must provide all reasonable facilities to enable that inspection and survey to take place.

(9) In this paragraph, “specified day” means—

(a)the day on which the plans of the specified work or specified function referred to in sub-paragraph (2) are provided to the PLA; or

(b)the day on which the undertaker provides the PLA with the further particulars requested by the PLA under sub-paragraph (2),

whichever is later.

Design of, and coordination of, tunnelling works to ensure existing and future use of river Thames

99.—(1) The detailed design and construction of the tunnelling works in the river Thames must—

(a)provide for a protected dredged navigational channel depth of 12.5m below chart datum with an additional 0.5m to allow for over-dredging attributable to standard dredging methodology;

(b)ensure that that channel depth can be maintained where scour protection is required; and

(4) The undertaker must not, in the exercise of the powers conferred by article 19, damage or interfere with the beds or banks of any watercourse forming part of the river Thames unless such damage or interference is approved as a specified work under this Order or is otherwise approved in writing by the PLA.

Removal of temporary works

103.—(1) On completion of the construction of the whole or any part of a permanent specified work, the undertaker must—

(a)as soon as reasonably practicable after such completion seek approval under paragraph 98 (approval of detailed design (excluding the tunnelling works)) for the removal required by paragraph (b); and

(b)as soon as reasonably practicable after the grant of that approval under paragraph 98 remove—

(i)in the case of completion of part of a permanent specified work, any temporary tidal work (other than a residual structure) carried out only for the purposes of that part of the permanent specified work;

(ii)on completion of all the specified works, any remaining temporary tidal work (other than a residual structure); and

(c)in either case, any materials, plant and equipment used for such construction,

and make good the site to the reasonable satisfaction of the PLA.

(2) Without limitation to paragraph (1), the undertaker must as soon as reasonably practicable seek approval under paragraph 98 for the removal of the temporary outfall in the river Thames and any structure installed in connection with ground investigations in the river Thames where the use of that outfall or structure is no longer necessary in connection with the construction of the authorised development, and as soon as practicable after the grant of that approval must remove that outfall and structure and make good the site to the reasonable satisfaction of the PLA.

(3) For the purposes of the undertaker making good the site in accordance with sub-paragraph (1)(b), the PLA may require that—

(a)any residual structure is cut off by the undertaker at such level below the bed of the river Thames as the PLA may reasonably direct; and

(b)the undertaker takes such other steps to make the residual structure safe as the PLA may reasonably direct.

(4) As soon as reasonably practicable after the undertaker has complied with the PLA’s requirements under sub-paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) in relation to any residual structure, the PLA must grant the undertaker a works licence for that structure under section 66 (licensing of works) of the 1968 Act, and the terms of the licence are to reflect such requirements.

(5) For the avoidance of doubt, article 53 (disapplication of legislative provisions, etc.) will not apply to a residual structure which will, accordingly, be subject to sections 66 to 75 (lands above mean high water level) of the 1968 Act.

(6) In this paragraph—

“residual structure” means any part of a temporary tidal work that the PLA agrees cannot reasonably be removed by the undertaker on completion of the construction of the permanent specified works; and

“tidal work” means any specified work any part of which is, or may be, or, in, under or over the surface of land below the level of mean high water forming part of the river Thames.

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

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

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

(b)take such other action as the PLA may reasonably specify for the purposes of remedying the non-compliance to which the notice relates.

(4) If a specified work gives rise to materially new or materially different environmental effects over and above those anticipated by any environmental document, the undertaker must, in compliance with its duties under any enactment, take such action as is necessary to prevent or mitigate those environmental impacts and in so doing must consult and seek to agree the necessary measures with the PLA.
