Paragraph 10 Design parametersI1
England and Wales
The authorised scheme must be constructed in accordance with the parameters assessed in the environmental statement and set out in Table 2.
The F1undertaker may not undertake Work No. 1 in a manner which would give rise to any materially new or materially different environmental effects to those identified in the environmental statement based upon the maximum design scenarios set out in Table 3.5 of the environmental statement.
References to the location of an offshore surface structure in Table 2 is a reference to the centre point of that structure.
