 (i) in which the licence holder is or will be engaged; and
 (ii) that are authorised or required by or under the Act; and
 (b) section 116 of the Act (subject to subsection (6) of that section) requires them to be removed from the licence area.
Note: See also paragraph 74(3)(e) of the Act (about how equipment and other property is to be dealt with before a licence may be surrendered).

Note 1: In considering whether to approve the plan, the Regulator must have regard to the stage that the offshore infrastructure project is at (see paragraph 72(2)(c)). This may result in the matters included in the plan under this section becoming more detailed as the project progresses.
Note 2: A significant change in the relevant structures, equipment or property may result in the plan needing to be revised (see paragraph 60(2)(b)), and the matters addressed in the plan under this section may need to be updated.
