We consulted on Bowdun Offshore Wind Farm Limited’s application, as required under SLC 15(4) of the generation licence, for the Authority’s consent to exercise its statutory rights of entry on land under paragraph 10 of Schedule 4 of the 1989 Act, for the purposes set out in, and in accordance with, SLC 15(4) of the generation licence. We welcomed responses from electricity generation licence holders, landowners and the public. We also welcomed responses from all other stakeholders who might have had an interest in this matter.
We have decided to proceed with the Authority’s minded-to position, to grant consent to the Developer to exercise those powers granted under the 1989 Act, contingent upon the purpose of the land use being stated in the amended SLC 15(4).
The Developer hereby has the Authority’s consent to exercise its statutory rights of entry on the specific area of land in Arbuthnott, Laurencekirk (as detailed in the Application) under paragraph 10 of Schedule 4 of the 1989 Act, for the purposes set out in, and in accordance with, SLC 15(4) of the generation licence.
