Clarification on the provision of documents within the examination timetable.

Advice given

To clarify the deadline of the 29 January 2014 - deadline VI - was for receipt by the examining authority of the following documents: ? Responses to ExA?s second written questions ? Post hearing documents including any written summary of an oral case put at hearings held on 21 and 22 January and any documents/amendments requested by the ExA ? Comments on the applicant?s revised DCO

The documents submitted by the applicant (and other interested parties) to which you refer and published on our website on 30 January and 2 February are documents in response to this deadline (Deadline VI).

The deadline of 5 February (deadline Via) was for additional representations on the merits of the Turbine Area Mitigation Option. To clarify this is a new deadline as detailed in the ExA?s procedural decision letter of 13 January 2015 and is to allow interested parties to comment specifically on the merits of the mitigation option should they wish. It does not have to incorporate all interested parties' comments on the documents requested for deadline VI.

There is a further deadline (deadline VII) - 5 March which includes: ? Comments on responses to ExA?s second written questions(received at deadline VI) ? Comments on additional representations on the merits of the Turbine Area Mitigation Option (documents received at deadline VI and VIa)

Deadline VII is your (and other interested parties') opportunity to comment on the documents submitted for deadlines VI and VIa. This can also include your response to Compulsory Hearing Action Point 9. This is 25 working days after deadline VI and 20 working days after deadline VIa.
