Fees
We operate a fixed scale of charges for processing harbour orders. The fees are payable when a formal written application for an order is made. At the moment, the fees are:
- £2,000 for an order the sole purpose of which is to amend the borrowing powers of an existing authority
- £4,000 for any other order that would not empower an authority to undertake works
- £6,000 for an order which expressly empowers an authority to undertake works where an environmental impact assessment is not required
- £10,000 for an order which expressly empowers an authority to undertake works where it is decided that an environmental impact assessment is required.
