The following need further/better consultation and consideration which we reserve the right to comment on • Ecosystem/ecology – I am concerned the effect the Horizontal Directional Drilling may have on the River Bure and the water table and how it will impact on the ecosystem/ecology and habitat in the area to be crossed which is an area of rough carr/marsh and a haven for wildlife, it is also where my bee hives are located-further details of the drilling process are required and what safeguards are proposed to prevent any detrimental effects as a result of the works and to preserve the existing amenity of the area. • Heat/energy dissipation/vibration-what will be the heat/energy dissipation/vibration from the cables when installed and how will this be minimised-further details are required to comment on. • Residential Property-the route is crossing land within the curtilage of a residential property where I live, the presence of the cables will have an adverse effect on the enjoyment of the property and cause a depreciation in value. • Route-a preferable and less obtrusive route for the cables would be to the north of the B1354 road/east of the River Bure bridge which would then largely cross farmland and not residential property. • It is believed there is a recorded Roman encampment in the option area which must be preserved.
