# The Norfolk Vanguard Offshore Wind Farm Order 2022, Paragraph 29

Extent: E+W+S

The BIMP must include in particular:
(a) details of any further survey work required to confirm the presence and condition of marine debris;
(b) details of the location, nature and size of material to be removed from the HHW SAC, which should equate to no less than the area required to compensate for the predicted effects of cable installation and protection (up to 8.3 hectares) but taking into account the quantum of marine debris removal that might already have been delivered pursuant to Part 3 of Schedule 19 of the Norfolk Boreas Development Consent Order by way of compensation for disturbance to reef habitats where the impact on the HHW SAC is shared by virtue of the shared cable corridor;
(c) a method statement for its removal, to include the vessel type, tools used and mitigation for how impacts on the surrounding habitat will be minimised;
(d) a programme of works for removal which must ensure that the required area of marine debris has been removed prior to commencement of any cable installation works in the HHW SAC;
(e) proposals for monitoring in accordance with the principles set out in the HHW SAC compensation plan as well as proposals for reporting of monitoring;
(f) success criteria, adaptive management measures, details of alternative search areas outside the HHW SAC to remove the required quantum of marine debris if the required area cannot be recovered from the HHW SAC itself and details of further marine debris removal work that might be carried out if the actual effects of cable installation and protection on the HHW SAC are greater than anticipated;
(g) programme of delivery for education, awareness and provision of facilities to reduce further marine debris from affecting the HHW SAC;
(h) details of how all impacts to protected reef habitats within the HHW SAC will be avoided where possible and details of any other mitigations that were included in the outline Norfolk Vanguard Haisborough, Hammond and Winterton Special Area of Conservation site integrity plan; and
(i) details of the locations for the disposal of dredged material, and evidence that the disposal mechanism will allow sediment to be retained within the sandbank system and avoid impacts to other features, particularly reef habitats.
