Hevingham Parish Councils principal submissions are: - consideration needs to be given to HGV traffic impacts (noise, vibration, emissions), road closures and diversions. - consideration needs to be given to the environmental impacts (trees, hedgerows) etc. - the lack of proper consideration by the Applicant of an alternative, more appropriate, grid connection point. - there is a need for the ExA to require the attendance of National Grid at the Hearings, to be interrogated on their actions by the ExA, in public, during the examination process. - recognition, in relation to the work of the OTNR, that SEP/DEP is not an “in-flight” project. - the onshore in-combination, cumulative impacts of SEP/DEP’s landfall, substation and cable corridor construction, when considered alongside the already consented Hornsea Three, Vanguard and Boreas projects. - that the SEP/DEP application should include – as a necessary cumulative impact – the proposed East Anglia Green project, upon the consenting of which it depends. - the cumulative impact of the possible future construction of large battery storage facilities to improve the economic viability of the project, as has happened with the Hornsea Three project.
