Coming into force 15th June 2001

Whereas Lerwick Port Authority has applied in writing for a harbour revision order under section 14 of the Harbours Acts 1964^f1;

And whereas the Scottish Ministers^f2 have, in pursuance of paragraph 5(b) of Schedule 3 to the said Act^f3, determined that the application for this Harbour Revision Order is made in relation to a project which falls within Annex II to Council Directive 85/337/EEC^f4 on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment but whose characteristics do not require that it should be made subject to an environmental assessment;

And whereas the making of this Order is not opposed;

And whereas the Scottish Ministers are satisfied as required by subsection (2)(b) of the said section 14;

Now therefore, the Scottish Ministers, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 14 of the said Act and of all other powers enabling them in that behalf, hereby make the following Order:
