Paragraph 13 Archaeology
No part of the authorised development may be commenced, and no archaeological investigations, investigations for the purpose of assessing ground conditions or remedial work in respect of contamination or other adverse ground conditions may take place, until for that part a written scheme for the investigation of areas of archaeological interest has been submitted to and approved by the relevant planning authority in consultation with Kent County Council.
The scheme approved under sub-paragraph (1) must:
include details of further assessment and survey work to be undertaken to identify areas of potential archaeological interest that may be impacted by development;
identify the measures to be taken to investigate, protect, record or preserve any significant archaeological remains that may be found; and
include a scheme of post investigation assessment, analysis and reporting of the results following completion of the archaeological works.
Any archaeological works carried out under the approved scheme must be carried out by an organisation registered with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists or by a member of that Institute.
Any archaeological works must be carried out in accordance with the approved scheme.
