Survey of waterway

20

• (1) Before the commencement of the initial construction of any part of the specified works and again following practical completion of the specified works the undertaker must bear the reasonable and proper cost of the carrying out by a qualified engineer (the “surveyor”), to be approved by CRT and the undertaker, of a survey including a dip-survey to measure the depth of the waterway (“the survey”) of so much of the waterway and of any land and existing works of the undertaker which may provide support for the waterway as will or may be affected by the specified works.

• (2) For the purposes of the survey the undertaker must—

• (a) on being given reasonable notice (save in case of emergency, when immediate access must be afforded) afford reasonable facilities to the surveyor for access to the site of the specified works and to any land and existing works of the undertaker which may provide support for the waterway as will or may be affected by the specified works; and

• (b) supply the surveyor as soon as reasonably practicable with all such information as he may reasonably require and which the undertaker holds with regard to such existing works of the undertaker and to the specified works or the method of their construction.

• (3) The reasonable costs of the survey must include the costs of any dewatering or reduction of the water level of any part of the waterway (where reasonably required) which may be effected to facilitate the carrying out of the survey and the provisions of this Part will apply with all necessary modifications to any such dewatering or reduction in the water level as though the same were specified works.

• (4) Copies of the survey must be provided to both CRT and the undertaker at no cost to CRT.

Approval of plans, protective works etc.

21

• (1) The undertaker must before commencing construction of any specified work including any temporary works supply to CRT proper and sufficient plans of that work, on CRT forms, and such further particulars available to it as CRT may within 14 days of the submission of the plans reasonably require for the approval of the engineer and must not commence such construction of a specified work until plans of that work have been approved in writing by the engineer or settled by arbitration.

• (2) The approval of the engineer under sub-paragraph (1) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if within 35 days after such plans (including any other particulars reasonably required under sub-paragraph (1)) have been received by CRT the engineer has not intimated his disapproval of those plans and the grounds of his disapproval he is deemed to have approved the plans as submitted.

• (3) When signifying approval of the plans the engineer may specify on land held or controlled by CRT or the undertaker and subject to such works being authorised by the order or being development permitted by an Act of Parliament or general development order made under the 1990 Act—

• (a) any protective work (whether temporary or permanent) which in the reasonable opinion of the engineer should be carried out before the commencement of a specified work to prevent detriment; and

• (b) such other requirements as may be reasonably necessary to prevent detriment; and such protective works must be constructed by the undertaker or by CRT at the undertaker's request with all reasonable dispatch and the undertaker must not commence the construction of a specified work until the engineer has notified the undertaker that the protective works have been completed to the engineer's reasonable satisfaction such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

• (4) The undertaker must pay to CRT a capitalised sum representing the reasonably increased or additional cost of maintaining and, when necessary, renewing any works, including any permanent protective works provided under sub-paragraph (3) above, and of carrying out any additional dredging of the waterway reasonably necessitated by the exercise of any of the powers under this Order but if the cost of maintaining the waterway, or of works of renewal of the waterway, is reduced in consequence of any such works, a capitalised sum representing such reasonable saving is to be set off against any sum payable by the undertaker to CRT under this paragraph.

• (5) In the event that the undertaker fails to complete the construction of, or part of, the specified works CRT may, if it is reasonably required in order to avoid detriment, serve on the undertaker a notice in writing requesting that construction be completed. Any notice served under this subparagraph must state the works that are to be completed by the undertaker and lay out a reasonable timetable for the works' completion. If the undertaker fails to comply with this notice within 35 days, CRT may construct any of the specified works, or part of such works, (together with any adjoining works) in order to complete the construction of, or part of, the specified works or make such works and the undertaker must reimburse CRT all costs, fees, charges and expenses it has reasonably incurred in carrying out such works.

Design of works

22

• (1) Without prejudice to its obligations under the foregoing provisions of this Part of this Schedule the undertaker must consult, collaborate and respond constructively to any reasonable approach, suggestion, proposal or initiative made by CRT on—

• (a) the design and appearance of the specified works, including the materials to be used for their construction; and

• (b) the environmental effects of those works; and must have regard to such views as may be expressed by CRT to the extent that these accord with the requirements of the local planning authority in response to such consultation pursuant in particular to the requirements imposed on CRT by section 22 (general environmental and recreational duties) of the British Waterways Act 1995 and to the interest of CRT in preserving and enhancing the environment of its waterways.

Notice of works

23

The undertaker must give to the engineer 30 days' notice of its intention to commence the construction of any of the specified or protective works, or, in the case of repair carried out in an emergency, such notice as may be reasonably practicable so that, in particular, CRT may where appropriate arrange for the publication of notices bringing those works to the attention of users of CRT's network.

Lighting

24

The undertaker must provide and maintain at its own expense in the vicinity of the specified or protective works such temporary lighting and such signal lights for the control of navigation as the engineer may reasonably require during the construction or failure of the specified or protective works.

Construction of specified works

25

• (1) Any specified or protective works must, when commenced, be constructed—

• (a) with all reasonable dispatch in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to have been approved or settled as aforesaid and with any specifications made under paragraph 21 and paragraph 22 of this Part;

• (b) under the supervision (if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer;

• (c) in such manner as to cause as little detriment as is reasonably practicable;

• (d) in such manner as to cause as little inconvenience as is reasonably practicable to CRT, its officers and agents and all other persons lawfully using the waterways, except to the extent that temporary obstruction has otherwise been agreed by CRT; and

• (e) in such a manner so as to ensure that no materials are discharged or deposited into the waterway otherwise than in accordance with article 14 (discharge of water).

• (2) Nothing in this Order authorises the undertaker to make or maintain any permanent works in or over the waterway so as to impede or prevent (whether by reducing the width of the waterway or otherwise) the passage of any vessel which is of a kind (as to its dimensions) for which CRT is required by section 105(1)(b) and (2) of the Transport Act 1968 to maintain the waterway.

• (3) Following the completion of the construction of the specified works the undertaker must restore the waterway to a condition no less satisfactory than its condition immediately prior to the commencement of those works unless otherwise agreed between the undertaker and CRT.

• (4) In assessing whether the condition of the waterway is no less satisfactory than immediately prior to the works pursuant to sub-paragraph (3), CRT and the undertaker must take account of any survey issued pursuant to paragraph 20 and any other information agreed between them pursuant to this Part 3.

Prevention of pollution

26

The undertaker must not in the course of constructing a specified work or a protective work or otherwise in connection therewith do or permit anything which may result in the pollution of the waterway or the deposit of materials therein and must take such steps as the engineer may reasonably require to avoid or make good any breach of its obligations under this paragraph.

Access to work – provision of information

27

• (1) The undertaker on being given reasonable notice must—

• (a) at all reasonable times allow reasonable facilities to the engineer for access to a specified work during its construction; and

• (2) If the cost of maintaining, working or renewing the waterway is reduced in consequence of any such alterations or additions a capitalised sum representing such saving is to be set off against any sum payable by the undertaker to CRT under this paragraph.

Maintenance of works

29

If at any time after the completion of a specified work or a protective work, not being a work vested in CRT, CRT gives notice to the undertaker informing it that it reasonably considers that the state of maintenance of the work appears to be such that the work is causing or likely to cause detriment, the undertaker must, on receipt of such notice, take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to put the work in such state of maintenance as not to cause such detriment.

Repayment of CRT's fees, etc.

30

• (1) The undertaker must repay to CRT in accordance with the Code of Practice all fees, costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by CRT—

• (a) in constructing any protective works under the provisions of paragraph 21(3)(a);

• (b) in respect of the approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by the engineer of the construction or repair of a specified work and any protective works;

• (c) in respect of the employment during the construction of the specified works or any protective works of any inspectors, watchmen and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, watching and lighting any waterway and for preventing, so far as may be reasonably practicable, interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction or failure of the specified works or any protective works; and

• (d) in bringing the specified works or any protective works to the notice of users of CRT's network.

• (e) in constructing and/or carrying out any measures related to any specified works or protective works which are reasonably required by CRT to ensure the safe navigation of the waterway save that nothing is to require CRT to construct and/or carry out any measures.

• (2) If CRT considers that a fee, charge, cost or expense will be payable by the undertaker pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), CRT will first provide an estimate of that fee, charge, cost or expense and supporting information in relation to the estimate to the undertaker along with a proposed timescale for payment for consideration and the undertaker may, within a period of twenty-one days—

• (a) provide confirmation to CRT that the estimate is agreed and pay to CRT, by the date stipulated, that fee, charge, cost or expense; or

• (b) provide confirmation to CRT that the estimate is not accepted along with a revised estimate and a proposal as to how or why the undertaker considers that the estimate can be reduced and or paid at a later date.

• (3) CRT must take in to account any representations made by the undertaker in accordance with this paragraph 30 and must, within twenty-one days of receipt of the information pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), confirm the amount of the fee, charge, cost or expense to be paid by the undertaker (if any) and the date by which this is to be paid.

• (4) CRT must, when estimating and incurring any charge, cost or expense pursuant this paragraph 30, do so with a view to being reasonably economic and acting as if CRT were itself to fund the relevant fee, charge, cost or expense.

Costs of alterations, etc.

• (1) If any detriment is be caused by the construction or failure of the specified works or the protective works if carried out by the undertaker, the undertaker (if so required by CRT) must make good such detriment and must pay to CRT all reasonable expenses to which CRT may be put, and compensation for any loss which CRT may sustain, in making good or otherwise by reason of the detriment.

• (2) The undertaker must be responsible for and make good to CRT all costs, charges, damages, expenses and losses not otherwise provided for in this Part which may be occasioned to and reasonably incurred by CRT—

• (a) by reason of the construction of a specified work or a protective work or the failure of such a work; or

• (b) by reason of any act or omission of the undertaker or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or others whilst engaged upon the construction of a specified work or protective work; and subject to sub-paragraph (4) the undertaker must effectively indemnify and hold harmless CRT from and against all claims and demands arising out of or in connection with any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) (provided that CRT is not entitled to recover any consequential losses which are not reasonably foreseeable from the undertaker).

• (3) The fact that any act or thing may have been done by CRT on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with plans approved by the engineer or in accordance with any requirement of the engineer or under the engineer's supervision or in accordance with any directions or awards of an arbitrator is not to (if it was done without negligence on the part of CRT or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or agents) excuse the undertaker from any liability under the provisions of this paragraph.

• (4) Nothing in sub-paragraph (2) imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the neglect or wilful default of CRT, its officers, servants, contractors or agents.

• (5) CRT must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand as aforesaid and no settlement or compromise of such a claim or demand is to be made without the prior consent of the undertaker.

Arbitration

33

Any difference arising between the undertaker and CRT under this Part (other than a difference as to the meaning or construction of this Part) must be referred to and settled by arbitration in accordance with article 41 (arbitration) of this Order.

Capitalised sums

34

Any capitalised sum which is required to be paid under this Part must be calculated by multiplying the cost of the maintenance or renewal works to the waterway necessitated as a result of the operation of the authorised development by the number of times that the maintenance or renewal works will be required during the operation of the authorised development.
