Advice given

The project to which you refer, 'Able Marine Energy Park', is expected to be submitted on the 31 August 2011. The project is currently at the Pre-Application stage of the process which, amongst other matters, involves the developer engaging in consultation. As the project has not yet been submitted for examination I would advise you to contact the developer directly for further information. The contact for Able UK is Richard Cram (email: rcram@ableuk.com tel: 01642 806080).

You will be able to find any documentation such as meeting notes, advice given and other documentation relating to the project on the project page on the IPC's website. A scoping report was adopted by the IPC in October 2010 and this can be found under project documentation on the project page.

May I take this opportunity to remind you that the IPC cannot advise on the merits of applications for development consent orders (DCOs) or proposed applications, give legal advice nor interpret legislation as the latter is a matter for the courts.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
