EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Hinkley Point C (Nuclear Generating Station) Order 2013 ("the 2013 Order"), a development consent order under the Planning Act 2008 ("the Act"), which has previously been amended by the Hinkley Point C (Nuclear Generating Station) (Correction) Order 2013, the Hinkley Point C (Nuclear Generating Station) (Amendment) Order 2015 and the Hinkley Point C (Nuclear Generating Station) (Amendment) Order 2017.

This Order follows an application under paragraph 2 of Schedule 6 to the Act for a non-material change to allow an alteration to the alignment of the sea wall and the erection of additional pipework along the underside of the temporary jetty to enable discharges of water from the site. This Order also allows for the redesign and the change in size and location of a number of structures within the Hinkley Point C Permanent Development Site and amends the listed plans in Part 3 of Schedule 1 to the 2013 Order.

This Order, in article 7, provides for the certification of revised or substituted plans for use as evidence in any proceedings.

The changes to the 2013 Order take effect from the date specified in this Order.
