The promoter may in exercise of the powers conferred by this Order acquire or appropriate any land in which any apparatus is placed and, following the removal of such apparatus in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, any rights in that land relating to that apparatus shall be extinguished but no apparatus shall be removed nor shall any right of the specified undertaker to use, maintain or renew any apparatus be extinguished until any necessary alternative apparatus has been constructed and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of the specified undertaker.

Removal of apparatus

8

Paragraphs 9 to 12 apply where—

• (a) the promoter requires the removal of any apparatus for the purpose of constructing any of the authorised works and gives to the specified undertaker not less than 56 days' written notice of that requirement together with a plan of the proposed work and of the proposed position of the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed; or

• (b) in consequence of the exercise or proposed exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order, the specified undertaker reasonably requires to remove any apparatus.

9

The promoter shall, if it is practicable to do so, afford to the specified undertaker the necessary rights and facilities for the construction of any necessary alternative apparatus in other land which is available for the purpose and which is held or used, or intended for use, by the promoter for the purpose of its undertaking under this Order or in which it has sufficient rights or interests and thereafter for the use, maintenance and renewal of such apparatus and, if the promoter is unable to obtain those rights and facilities, the specified undertaker shall, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the promoter, use its best endeavours to obtain the necessary rights and facilities.

10

The obligation imposed upon the specified undertaker by paragraph 9 shall not extend to the exercise by the specified undertaker of any power to acquire any land or rights in land by a compulsory purchase order.

11

Any alternative apparatus to be constructed by the specified undertaker pursuant to paragraph 9 shall be constructed in such manner, and in such line or situation, as may be agreed between the specified undertaker and the promoter or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration.

12

The specified undertaker shall, after the manner of construction and the line or situation of any necessary alternative apparatus have been agreed or determined and after the grant to or obtaining by the specified undertaker of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in paragraph 9, proceed with all reasonable dispatch to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and thereafter to remove any apparatus required by the promoter to be removed in accordance with paragraph 8.

Removal of apparatus and construction of alternative apparatus by the promoter

13

Paragraphs 14 to 16 apply to so much of the work necessary in connection with the construction of alternative apparatus, or the removal of apparatus required to be removed, as will take place in any land held or used, or intended for use, by the promoter for the purpose of its undertaking.

14

If the promoter gives notice in writing to the specified undertaker that it desires to carry out any part of any work to which this paragraph applies, such work, instead of being carried out by the specified undertaker, may be carried out by the promoter with the prior written consent of the specified undertaker (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be subject to any such conditions as are reasonable and proper to protect the apparatus) in accordance with plans and in a position agreed between the specified undertaker and the promoter or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration, with all reasonable dispatch under the superintendence (if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the specified undertaker.

15

In carrying out any work under paragraph 14 the promoter shall comply with all statutory obligations which would have been applicable had the works been carried out by the specified undertaker.

16

Nothing in paragraph 14 shall authorise the promoter to carry out the actual placing, erection, installation, bedding, packing, removal, connection or disconnection of any apparatus or, where the apparatus is laid in a trench, execute any filling around the apparatus within 600 millimetres (measured in any direction) of the apparatus.

Facilities and rights for alternative apparatus

17

Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, the promoter affords to the specified undertaker facilities and rights for the construction, use, maintenance and renewal in land of the promoter of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights shall be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the promoter and the specified undertaker or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration.

18

In determining the terms and conditions mentioned in paragraph 17 in respect of alternative apparatus to be constructed across or along the authorised works the arbitrator shall—

• (a) give effect to all reasonable requirements of the promoter for ensuring the safety of the authorised works and for securing any subsequent alterations or adaptations of the alternative apparatus which may be required to prevent interference with any such works; and

• (b) so far as it may be reasonable and practicable to do so in the circumstances of the case, give effect to any terms and conditions applicable to the apparatus (if any) constructed across or along the authorised works for which the alternative apparatus is to be substituted and to any other reasonable requirements of the specified undertaker.

19

If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the promoter in respect of any alternative apparatus under paragraph 17 and the terms and conditions subject to which the same are to be granted are, in the opinion of the arbitrator, more or less favourable on the whole to the specified undertaker than the facilities, rights, terms and conditions applying to the apparatus to be removed, the arbitrator shall make such provision for the payment of compensation to or by the promoter by or to the specified undertaker in that respect as shall appear to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the case.

Retained apparatus: protection and plan approval

20

Not less than 56 days before commencing to construct or renew any specified work, the promoter shall submit to the specified undertaker plans of the works.

21

In relation to a work which is a specified work because of its proximity to or effect on a sewer, the plans to be submitted to the specified undertaker under paragraph 20 shall be detailed plans describing—

• (a) the exact position of the specified work;

• (b) the level at which it is proposed to be constructed or renewed;

• (c) the manner of its construction or renewal;

• (d) the position of all sewers within 15 metres of the specified work or upon which the specified work will impose a load; and

• (e) by way of detailed drawings, every alteration proposed to be made to any such sewer.

22

The promoter shall not commence the construction or renewal of any specified work to which paragraph 20 applies until the specified undertaker has given written approval of the plans so submitted.

23

Any approval of the specified undertaker required under paragraph 22—

• (a) may be given subject to reasonable conditions for any purpose mentioned in paragraph 24;

• (b) shall not be unreasonably withheld; and

• (c) shall be deemed to have been given if it is neither given nor refused within 56 days of the submission of plans for approval.

24

In relation to a work to which paragraph 21 applies, the specified undertaker may require such modifications to be made to the plans as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of securing its sewerage system against interference or risk of damage or for the purpose of providing or securing proper and convenient means of access to any sewer.

25

A specified work shall be constructed (and in the case of any temporary work removed) only in accordance with—

• (a) the approved plans (and, in the case of plans relating to sewers approved, deemed to have been approved or settled by arbitration, as amended from time to time by agreement between the promoter and the specified undertaker); and

• (b) all reasonable requirements made by the specified undertaker for the alteration, or otherwise for the protection, of the apparatus, or for securing access to it,

and the specified undertaker shall be entitled by its officer to watch and inspect the carrying out of the work.

26

If within 42 days after the submission to it of any plans under paragraph 20, in consequence of the works proposed by the promoter the specified undertaker reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus and gives written notice to the promoter of that requirement, the foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall have effect as if the removal of such apparatus had been required by the specified undertaker under paragraph 8.

27

Nothing in paragraph 20 or 26 shall preclude the promoter from submitting at any time, or from time to time, but in no case less than 28 days before commencing the construction of any specified work, a new plan in place of the plan previously submitted, in which case the provisions of those paragraphs shall apply to, and in respect of, such new plan except that the reference in paragraph 26 to 42 days shall be treated as a reference to 21 days.

28

The promoter shall not be required to comply with paragraph 20 in a case where it is necessary to carry out emergency works but, in such a case, it shall give to the specified undertaker notice as soon as reasonably practicable, and a plan of the works as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and shall comply with paragraph 25 so far as reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

29

Nothing in paragraph 28 shall entitle the promoter to carry out works to any apparatus but, upon receipt of notice from the promoter, the specified undertaker shall proceed to carry out such works as may be required with all reasonable dispatch.

Co-operation

30

Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any of the authorised works, the promoter or a specified undertaker requires the removal of apparatus under paragraph 8 or a specified undertaker makes requirements for the protection or alteration of apparatus under paragraph 25, the promoter shall use its best endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of the works in the interests of safety and the efficient and economic execution of the authorised works and each specified undertaker shall use its best endeavours to co-operate with the promoter for that purpose.

Access

31

If in consequence of the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order the access to any apparatus is materially obstructed the promoter shall provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable the specified undertaker to maintain or use the apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.

Expenses

32

Subject to the provisions of the following paragraphs of this Schedule, the promoter shall repay to the specified undertaker the reasonable expenses incurred by the specified undertaker in, or in connection with—

• (a) the inspection, removal and relaying or replacing, alteration or protection of any apparatus or the construction of any new apparatus under any provision of this Schedule (including any costs reasonably incurred or compensation properly paid in connection with the acquisition of rights or exercise of statutory powers for such apparatus);

• (b) the cutting off of any apparatus from any other apparatus, or the making safe of any redundant apparatus in consequence of the exercise by the promoter of any power under this Order;

• (c) the survey of any land, apparatus or works; the inspection, superintendence and monitoring of works; or the installation or removal of any temporary works reasonably necessary in consequence of the exercise by the promoter of any power under this Order; and

• (d) any other work or thing rendered reasonably necessary in consequence of the exercise by the promoter of any such power,

within a reasonable time of being notified by the specified undertaker that it has incurred such expenses.

33

There shall be deducted from any sum payable under paragraph 32 the value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Schedule, that value being calculated after removal.

34

If in pursuance of the provisions of this Schedule—

• (a) alternative apparatus of better type, or greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions, except where this has been solely due to using the nearest currently available type; or

• (b) apparatus (whether existing apparatus or alternative apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions, or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the promoter or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration to be necessary having regard, among other things, to the nature of the authorised works, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under paragraphs 9 to 12 exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this paragraph would be payable to the specified undertaker by virtue of paragraph 32 shall be reduced by the amount of that excess.

35

For the purposes of paragraph 34—

• (a) an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus shall not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus except in a case where the apparatus as so extended serves a purpose (either additional to or instead of that served by the existing apparatus) which was not served by the existing apparatus; and

• (b) where the provision of a joint in a pipe or cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole shall be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

36

An amount which apart from this paragraph would be payable to the specified undertaker in respect of works by virtue of paragraphs 32 to 35 shall, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the specified undertaker any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus or of the system of which it forms part in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit as calculated in accordance with the Code of Practice entitled “Measures Necessary where Apparatus is Affected by Major Works (Diversionary Works)” and dated June 1992 and approved by the Secretary of State on 30th June 1992, as revised and re-issued from time to time.

37

In any case where work is carried out by the promoter pursuant to paragraphs 14 to 16 and, if such work had been carried out by the specified undertaker, the repayment made to the specified undertaker under paragraph 32 would fall to be reduced pursuant to paragraphs 34 to 36, the specified undertaker shall pay to the promoter such sum as represents the amount of that reduction.

Indemnity

38
