Paragraph 139 InterpretationI1

England and Wales

If the Board considers that, as a direct result of the construction and/or operation of the authorised development the outfall of the Habrough Drain has been obstructed or impaired and either—

(a)

the obstruction has the potential to impede or affect the flow of water from the Habrough Drain into the River Humber; or

(b)

the efficiency of any ordinary watercourse for flood defence or land drainage purposes is impaired, or that watercourse is otherwise damaged, so as to require remedial action,

such obstruction, impairment or damage must be made good by the undertaker to the reasonable satisfaction of the Board and if the Undertaker fails to do so, the Board may make good the same and recover from the undertaker the expense reasonably incurred by it in so doing.
