Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Non Material Amendment of DC/22/3202/FUL - Norfolk Vanguard and Norfolk Boreas (collectively known as the Norfolk Projects) are proposing to develop an artificial nesting structure for kittiwakes at the Port of Lowestoft in order to deliver compensation. The structure would be located seaward of the outer harbour wall (which is 4m tall) and comprises a wall like structure with shelves (for nesting). The proposed nesting structure would comprise three walls each 2.73m in height and 12.6m long. Each wall would support six nesting shelves, with the bottom shelf positioned 2m above ground level. The total height of the structure would be 4.73m with 0.73m rising above the 4m harbour wall. The structures would be encircled with a fence for security and the exclusion of ground predators.- to amend the current access to the ANS platform (1.5 m off the ground) from the current ladders to steps
