London Gateway Port Ltd is looking to appoint a consultant with UK marine project experience to undertake an Environmental Impact Assessment assessing potential future capital dredging of the 100km-long approach channel to London Gateway Port and then subsequently applying for any relevant environmental consents.
The company must have experience in:
- UK Marine EIA Projects, preferably with dredging and disposal site experience.
- Being the lead consultant for an EIA process, including the responsibilities of:
o Developing the consenting programme with the client.
o The EIA scoping process.
o Managing the different workstreams to achieve programme, including sub-consultant management.
o Compiling the final report.
- Undertaking additional assessments required such as Habitats Regulation Assessments, Marine Conservation Zone Assessments and Water Framework Directive Assessments.
- The UK marine legislative requirement and the associated application process for UK marine permit, licence, and consents includes preparing the required application documents. Again, experience in this process for dredging and use of disposal sites is highly desirable.
- UK environmental regulatory liaison.
- Wider stakeholder liaison.
The consultant will also need to:
- Interpret the significant amount of environmental baseline data held by London Gateway.
- Work with the London Gateway engineering team to define the potential works being assessed and then implementing any mitigation measures identified by the assessments into the main engineering contracts.
The EIA consultant is likely going to need expertise or be able to subcontract in expertise for the following subjects, noting that some of these might be scoped out from the main EIA Assessment:
- Marine and Coastal Processes (and associated modelling)
- Water Quality and Resources
- Assessing options for use or disposal of dredged material
- Marine and Coastal Ecology
- Commercial Fisheries
- Air Quality
- Noise and Vibration
- Navigational Impact Assessment
- Coastal and Flood Defence
- Underwater Noise
- Maritime Archaeology
Note that London Gateway would likely directly commission the below pieces of work, that would feed into the EIA process:
- Ground Investigation Surveys
- Marine Ecological Surveys
- Marine Wreck Investigation and SurveysValue not published
