The Environmental Impact Assessment and Natural Habitats (Extraction of Minerals by Marine Dredging) (Wales) Regulations 2007

Status:

This is the original version (as it was originally made).

Applications for permission

10.—(1) An application for permission to carry out dredging must —

(a)be made to the Welsh Ministers;

(b)contain such information as the Welsh Ministers may reasonably require;

(c)unless the dredging falls within one of the cases described in paragraphs (2) and (3), include an environmental statement;

(d)where paragraph (2) applies, and the Secretary of State’s determination relates to part only of the dredging, include an environmental statement in respect of any part of the dredging to which the determination does not apply; and

(e)be accompanied by a fee determined in accordance with regulation 25.

(2) The first case is where the Secretary of State has determined under regulation 5(2) that the dredging constitutes or forms part of a project serving national defence purposes and that, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, the application of these Regulations would have an adverse effect on those purposes.

(3) The second case is where the Welsh Ministers have, within 12 months prior to the date of the application, determined in response to an application under regulation 6(1)(a) that the dredging does not constitute a relevant project.

(4) The Welsh Ministers may require the applicant to supply such number of copies of the application as may reasonably be required, within such period as may reasonably be specified.

(5) Where the applicant fails, within such period as the Welsh Ministers have specified, or such further period as the Welsh Ministers may allow, to comply with any requirement of this regulation, the application will be deemed to be withdrawn at the end of such period, and the fee will be refunded if the Welsh Ministers have not yet published a notice under regulation 12(1).

(6) An application under this regulation may be withdrawn at any time by notice to the Welsh Ministers, and the fee will be refunded if, at the time when the Welsh Ministers receive the notice of withdrawal, the Welsh Ministers have not yet published a notice under regulation 12(1).

(7) Where the Welsh Ministers receive an application under this regulation which may constitute or form part of a project serving national defence purposes, the Welsh Ministers must provide a copy of that application to the Secretary of State.
