Enquiry

Please see attached. Good morning, Following on from our meeting at the start of July, we have used our ETGs to inform those stakeholders initially that we are part of the Early Adopters programme and that as part of this we will be producing some additional documentation in advance of our DCO Application. Should we need to engage any additional non-ETG stakeholders we will follow up with them separately. We, the Applicant, understand that the PADSS are consultee owned and authored, with Outer Dowsing being responsible for retrieving final versions of the preapplication PADSS from the consultees and combining them into a single PADSS document for submission which will accompany the DCO application. I believe we would benefit from a follow up meeting with The Inspectorate’s Outer Dowsing Project team and any other relevant people to discuss: 1. engagement with consultees 2. the level of detail required in the design approach document which we need to submit, a. We submitted a design principle document at PEIR which we will update for DCO Application. b. It would be helpful for us to understand the requirements for the design approach document, the level of detail required, etc. so we can ensure this is provided 3. the project compliance document. Our understanding is that this would be the consultation compliance checklist but please confirm? Please can we find a suitable time to discuss the above points so the Outer Dowsing Project team can begin works. I am conscious our programme is for DCO Application submission to be finalised and ready for submission at the end of this year, which is less than 5 months away so we are keen to ensure the documents are drafted to meet your requirements. Many thanks,
