# The North Wales Wind Farms Connection Order 2016, Paragraph 13: Emergency Works

Extent: E+W+S

(1) The undertaker is permitted to carry out emergency works provided that it first notifies DCC of the proposed emergency works. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that DCC suffers any loss, cost or damage as a result of the emergency action taken by the undertaker without prior notification in accordance with this sub-paragraph the indemnity in paragraph 15 is to apply.
(2) DCC must at all times be permitted to carry out any emergency works in relation to its DCC apparatus within the Order Limits in accordance with Part II Schedule 6 WIA 1991.
(3) Emergency works required in order for DCC to fulfil its statutory functions under sub-paragraph (2) are to take precedence over works to be carried out by the undertaker and, in such circumstances, the undertaker must reschedule its works accordingly.
(4) In respect of the references to ‘work’ and ‘works’ in this paragraph 13, to the extent that this is ‘work’ or ‘works’ to be undertaken by DCC, the definition of works in paragraph 7 of this Part does not apply.
