Planning Consent Submitted

AMEC Offshore Wind Power Limited submitted an application under the Transport and Works Act 1992 to the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry for the Lynn Offshore Wind Farm — a UK Round 1 offshore wind project comprising 27 turbines (later built out as 27 turbines at 3.6 MW each, contributing to the combined 194 MW Lynn and Inner Dowsing development). Notice of the application and deposited plans was published per rules 12(1), 12(3) and 12(5) of the Transport and Works (Applications and Objections Procedure) (England and Wales) Rules 2000, with deposited plans available for inspection at AMEC Offshore Wind Power Limited's offices at Bridge End, Hexham, Northumberland. The Secretary of State's determination was published in the London Gazette on 29 October 2003, and The Lynn Offshore Wind Farm Order 2003 (SI 2003/2829) was made on 29 October 2003 and came into force on 19 November 2003. Centrica Renewable Energy acquired the Lynn project in 2003 and merged it with the adjacent Inner Dowsing project. The TWA Order was the project-wide development consent equivalent to a Section 36 application, hence its classification as planning_consent_submitted. The exact submission month was not identifiable from publicly available sources.
