We act for DVSA and we have been liaising with solicitors and agents acting for the Promoter. DVSA occupies a site on which Promoter's agent has confirmed the Promoter intends to use, at the very minimum, for welfare facilities and storage to facilitate the Scheme. Importantly, the pipeline itself may be laid through DVSA's site, which will entirely disrupt DVSA's operations. If the pipeline route does indeed cross the site, DVSA will need to relocate as it cannot operate from the site during construction. DVSA will require substantial notice to do so as any alternative site will need to be sizeable with specific infrastructure, and DVSA's relocation costs will need to be borne by the Promoter. While these points (and others) are being negotiated with the Promoter, DVSA requires the ability to participate in the Examination and submit further representations as an Interested Party in order to protect its interests.
