The Environmental Impact Assessment Report for the North Irish Sea Array offshore wind farm states that the export cable corridor is designed for an operational life of 35 years and that decommissioning will involve removal of the two offshore export cables, each approximately 9.7 nautical miles in length. This planned decommissioning activity will occur after the end of the cables’ operational life and entails extracting both export cables from the seabed along the export cable corridor.
