The Office of Environmental Enforcement records that the DUB10 noise management plan required by condition 6.13 was submitted on 28 September 2026 and finds it not to the Agency's satisfaction (missing modelled sound power data, abatement measures 'in light of the volume of complaints' and implementation content), requiring resubmission within two weeks and attendance at a compliance meeting on 1 October 2026. It does not question the plan's description of the installation. evidence
