# The Lake Lothing (Lowestoft) Third Crossing Order 2020, Paragraph 59

Extent: E+W

(1) If during the construction of a tidal work or after the completion of that work and wholly or partly in consequence of its construction there is caused or created an accumulation or erosion the undertaker, if so requested by the harbour authority acting reasonably, must remedy such accumulation or erosion to the extent attributable to such construction and, if it refuses or fails to do so as soon as reasonably practicable, the harbour authority may itself cause the work to be done and may recover the reasonable cost of doing so from the undertaker.
(2) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)—
(a) in the case of an accumulation, the remedy must be its removal; and
(b) in the case of erosion, the remedy must be the carrying out of such reconstruction works and other protective works or measures as the harbour authority reasonably requires.
(3) In the event that surveys, inspection, tests and sampling carried out pursuant to paragraph 64(1)(b) establish that such accumulation or erosion would have been caused in any event by factors other than construction of a tidal work, the undertaker is liable to remedy such accumulation or erosion only to the extent that the same is attributable to such construction.
