H2Teesside Non-statutory consultation on proposed changes to the DCO application

H2Teesside Limited is carrying out non-statutory consultation on the proposed changes to the H2Teesside Development Consent Order (‘DCO’) application which is currently in the examination period and is being examined by a panel of Examining Inspectors appointed by Planning Inspectorate (‘PINS’).

Since submission of the Application, the H2Teesside Limited has continued with detailed design development and refinement, while also engaging with Interested Parties with a view to addressing their comments and agreeing common ground.  

This work has identified a number of changes that the Applicant is now seeking to make to the Proposed Development. The changes proposed reflect further engineering and design development of the Proposed Development, changes to construction approach and techniques, reductions in the Order Limits (from approximately 507 to 406.9 hectares) and seek to respond to comments received from Interested Parties, deliver improvements to the Proposed Development, seek rights over an existing gas pipeline, remove optionality, and reduce its overall impacts. 

The Applicant is therefore intending to submit a change request to the Examining Authority.

In advance of submitting the change request, the Applicant is carrying out non-statutory consultation on the proposed changes. A Consultation Document explaining the proposed changes, environmental information about them, and plans showing the location and extent of the proposed changes, have been put together to help residents find out more and have their say:
