Not seen a picture of a puffin or porpoise in a while so I though I'ld have a quick looksie on the old infa ****ter thing.
Seems they have been going on about the need for further licenese regarding discharge and abstraction for the past week or so. And the need for a further PC on the matter. also, they seem to taken to the legal route as well.
Was that in response to infa getting the briefs involved?
An email response from DAERA was posted on the matter.

TBH, that was a slightly more detailed response that I would have expected. Cheers, Stokey.
Reviewing, though. That 's sounds like there may have be some back and forth dialogue between them and Infa to satisfy the requirments. All that kinda stuff takes times I would imagine.
re. emails and location, guess so. Fairy Nuff.
Back to ship spotting then. :)
Further to my 16.23 post of yesterday I have just received this response
'
Thank you for your query.
The Department is currently considering an application for a marine licence ML28_12 and also reviewing associated discharge and abstract consents. There is a large volume of consultation responses to review.
There is no timeframe for when decisions will be made.
Marine Licensing Team'
It would seem that apart from the marine licnse application they are also reviewing the discharge and abstract consents which might go someway to explaining the delay.
ThisTimeNextYeer - I think you were broadly right in your 16.43 post.
I would expect a standard response back Stokey along the lines of 'this application is following due process and a report will be issued on completion of our review'. Fair play to you though taking the time out to message them.
You never though too. You had a good response from the local MP Gavin Robinson when this maybe wasn't expected by many. He commented that he'd be keen to know where the process with DAERA was himself. I'm wondering did he have any joy here himself or anything that he could disclose.
The following is the text of an email that I have sent to the marine licensing section
'Dear Sirs
I am a shareholder in Infrastrata PLC the parent company behind this project. I am aware that there is an outstanding marine license application which is needed to progress this project. I am writing to ask if you can give an indication of when a decision will be made. As I understand it the statutory consultations were completed some seven months ago so I would expect a decision to be imminent.'
If anyone wants to send a similar email the email address is marinelicensingteam@daera-ni.gov.uk
