Paragraph 41 I1

Prior to carrying out the licensed activity referred to in paragraph 8 (compensation site creation) of Schedule 8 (deemed marine licence), a verification report demonstrating completion of the works set out in the approved remediation strategy referred to in paragraph 40(1)(c) and the effectiveness of the remediation must be submitted to, and approved by, the relevant planning authority.

The report must include results of sampling and monitoring carried out in accordance with the approved verification plan to demonstrate that the site remediation criteria have been met, and must also include any plan (a “long-term monitoring and maintenance plan”) for longer-term monitoring of pollutant linkages, maintenance and arrangements for contingency action, as identified in the verification plan, and for the reporting of this to the relevant planning authority.

The long-term monitoring and maintenance plan must be implemented as approved.
