GoBe Bags East Anglia ONE Post Consent Compliance Works

Following the recent award of a Contract for Difference (CfD) to the East Anglia ONE project for a capacity of 714MW, GoBe Consultants have been awarded the contract to work with SPRs East Anglia ONE development team to manage the discharge of the DCO consent conditions for all aspects of the project.

Working closely with the SPR development team, the GoBe team, together with its delivery partners SLR Consulting and Insight Development, will be managing the consent compliance works for both the onshore and offshore aspects of the Project.

This will entail the provision of project management services, technical environmental services and stakeholder consultation.

The work will require the development of monitoring plans and the delivery of key compliance documents such as the marine mammal mitigation protocol, construction method and design statements, various management and mitigation plans, and the preparation of the decommissioning plans.

GoBe will be working closely with the main construction contractors and the project engineers as well as liaising with key statutory and regulatory bodies to ensure compliance is achieved and consent requirements are discharged in facilitating the broader development process.

GoBe staff members are also currently fulfilling a range of roles on marine renewables projects during the post consent phase as well as continuing to provide high quality services relating to overall EIA project management, offshore EIA project management, offshore stakeholder liaison, drafting of technical EIA chapters (including benthic, fish and shellfish, marine ornithology, marine mammals), GIS provision, and the provision of consenting and planning advice on marine licensing, Section 36 and NSIP projects from its offices in the South West of England and Glasgow, Scotland.
