(2) All archaeological investigations including those carried out as part of onshore site preparation works must be carried out in accordance with the relevant written scheme of archaeological investigation approved under sub-paragraph (1).
(3) The archaeological site investigations and post investigation assessment must be completed in accordance with the programme set out in the written scheme of archaeological investigation and provision made for analysis, publication and dissemination of results and archive deposition.
(4) Any written scheme or archaeological investigation submitted under sub-paragraph (1) may cover one or more stage of the onshore works.
(5) In the event of the discovery of previously unknown archaeological remains within the onshore Order limits, their significance and suitability for preservation in situ must be assessed by field evaluation, in accordance with the outline onshore written scheme of investigation. Any archaeological remains which are demonstrably of national significance will be preserved in situ unless it is agreed by the relevant planning authority following consultation with West Sussex County Council, that either they are not suitable for preservation in situ or that preservation in situ cannot be achieved acceptably (including obtaining all necessary consents). Should archaeological remains be left in situ on any site, a site-specific archaeological management plan must be submitted to and approved in writing by the relevant planning authority following consultation with West Sussex County Council. Any further works, including removal and reinstatement, must be carried out in accordance with the approved site-specific archaeological management plan, unless otherwise approved by the relevant planning authority.
