Amendments to Part 3 (Requirements) of Schedule 1 (Authorised Project) 5 Part 3 (Requirements) of Schedule 1 (Authorised Project) is amended as follows: a In paragraph 3(1), for “No” substitute “Within Work No.1A, no”; b After paragraph 3(1)(d) insert— 1A Within Work No. 1B, no wind turbine generator may— a exceed a height of 315 metres when measured from HAT to the tip of the vertical blade; b have a rotor diameter exceeding 288 metres; c be less than a multiple of 6 times the rotor diameter from the nearest wind turbine generator in any direction being not less than 750 metres measured between wind turbine generators; d have a distance of less than 26 metres between the lowest point of the rotating blade of the wind turbine generator and HAT. ; c In paragraph 5(2), after “fixed to the seabed by” insert “monopole,”; d In paragraph 5(7), for “Offshore”, substitute “Within Work No. 1A, offshore”; e After paragraph 5(7) insert— 7A Within Work No. 1B, offshore platform foundation structures must be of 1 or more of the following foundation options: monopole, gravity base or multi-leg. ; f In paragraph 5(8), for “No” substitute “Within Work No.1A, no”; g After paragraph 5(8) insert— 8A Within Work No.1B, no offshore platform foundation structure fixed to the seabed by multi-leg foundation may— a have more than 24 driven piles; b have a pile diameter exceeding 2.75 metres or employ a hammer energy during installation exceeding 1,900 kilojoules. 8B Within Work No.1B, no offshore accommodation platform or helicopter platform, offshore collector platform or offshore converter platform foundation fixed to the seabed by monopole foundation may— a have more than 8 monopoles; b have a pile diameter exceeding 12 metres or employ a hammer energy during installation exceeding 3,000 kilojoules. ; h After paragraph 8(4) insert— 8A Within Work No. 1B, the total number of monopole foundations which can be used to install the wind turbine generators and the offshore platforms must not exceed 200. ; and i After paragraph 40, insert— Southern North Sea Special Area of Conservation 41 1 No Project B offshore works or activities associated with them that may have a significant effect on the Southern North Sea Special Area of Conservation may commence until the review of consents has been completed and the Secretary of State has affirmed, modified or revoked the decision in respect of the Project B offshore works under regulation 33(4) of the Conservation of Offshore Marine Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 . 2 In this Requirement, “review of consents” means the review of consents granted prior to the designation of the Southern North Sea as a Special Area of Conservation. .
