Paragraph 15 Reinstatement schemes

Subject to sub-paragraph (2), any land within the Order limits which is used temporarily for construction is to be reinstated to its former condition, or such condition as the relevant planning authority may approve, within six months of completion of the construction of the stage of authorised development for which it was required, or such further time as may be approved by the relevant planning authority.

Any land within the Order limits required for the installation of the underground cables is to be reinstated to its former condition, or such condition as the relevant planning authority may approve, within twelve months of completion of installation of the cables in that land, or such further time as may be approved by the relevant planning authority.

The requirement to reinstate the land to its former condition is subject to the provisions of article 29 (temporary use of land by National Grid) and article 30 (temporary use of land by WPD).
