The Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind Farm project infrastructure runs into the catchment area of Welland & Deepings Internal Drainage Board (W&DIDB) and ultimately terminates within our area with the erection of the associated substation. The proposed national infrastructure project is likely to impact upon the Board’s byelaws with the most pertinent ones being: • The 9 metre byelaw (byelaw No.10), • Alteration of a watercourse (byelaw No.6), • Surface water discharge (byelaw No.3). Please note that these are not the only W&DIDB byelaws that may be impacted upon by the project, and I include the following link for both ease of reference and to raise awareness of our byelaws in their entirety: S25C-0i22090609400 (REDACTED) I am happy to elaborate further or answer questions on how W&DIDB’s byelaws may affect the project infrastructure if required as necessary.
