Details

On 29 October 2014, the Secretary of State for Transport granted a Development Consent Order (DCO) for the Able Marine Energy Park. The pre-application, examination and DCO documents can be found on the Planning Inspectorate website.

The DCO authorises Able UK Ltd. to construct a solid quay on the south bank of the River Humber together with an ecological compensation scheme, comprising both temporary and permanent habitat creation on the opposite bank. Associated development includes dredging and land reclamation, and onshore facilities for the manufacture, assembly and storage of marine energy installation components.

On 15 April 2020, the MMO received a request from Able UK Ltd. to vary the Deemed Marine Licence contained within Schedule 8 of the Able Marine Energy Park Order 2014. The request is to extend the time limit for the construction and capital dredging activities by three years and subsequently delay the maintenance dredging period until the expiry of this licence (2024). The MMO’s decision was to vary the Deemed Marine Licence under section 72 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act (MCAA) 2009, effective from 16 September 2020.
