+==== Variation 13 - 2024 Oct 21 - accepted ====
+Able UK is looking to submit a variation to MMO Licence L/2017/00012/11 to include the minor additional capital dredging quantity to be allocated under the already approved capital dredging activities. This variation entails a localised 5,000m3 capital dredge, to a depth of -14.2mCD (from 9.5mCD) in front of Able Seaton Port Quay 1.
+A revised Marine Licence Schedule Document (ASC-001-00009) has been submitted alongside this application to supersede the existing drawing which shows the extent of dredging across Able Seaton Channel.
+No changes to overall quantities or material splits.

+==== Variation 14 - 2026 Feb 4 - accepted ====
+We have submitted MLA Reference MLA/2026/00019 to cover the next 10 years of dredging works at the site, however we do not foresee this being issued until after the current dredge licence expires on 1 March 2026 and critical dredging works are planned around April / May. This approach has been discussed and confirmed acceptable over email by Christie Powell, Marine Licencing Senior Lead on 3 December 2025.

+===== MLA-2026-00019 =====
+In 2026 Able submitted [[MLA-2026-00019]] to carry out dredging in support of the operations of Able Seaton Port.  This application follows [[MLA-2015-00334]] after its 13 variations this application is similar as it covers maintenance of the approach to Seaton Port, captial dredging to adapt the approach and capital dredging to alter the docks within the port.
+Subsequent to submission of [[MLA-2026-00019]] a further variation to [[MLA-2015-00334]] was submitted 14, which extended the 2015 licence to 1st September 2026
+==== Project Title ====
+Able Seaton Port Capital and Maintenance Dredging and Disposal
+==== Project Background ====
+The current licence L/2017/00012/12 is due to expire on 1st March 2026.The previous licence permitted a total of 1,568,410m3 of material to be dredged between capital dredge volumes and subsequent maintenance dredging and the proposed new marine licence is essentially an extension of the 2017 licence. The quantities of the capital material removal are based on the quantity remaining on the previous license. A maximum of 890,000m3 of material is to be dredged across the licence period, with 250,000m3 comprising capital dredging across Quays 7-11. The capital dredge volumes proposed within this licence are unfulfilled capacity which remains from the previous licence, where consented depths and amounts were not reached.
+Dredged material shall be stored on the dredger for direct transportation offshore for disposal. The material removed from Able Seaton Port under this licence will be disposed of across two licenced disposal sites, Tees Bay C and Tees Bay A.
+==== Programme of works ====
+The Proposed Works consist of capital and maintenance dredging at Able Seaton Port over a period of 10 years to deepen the berth levels, as needed. Target Start date: 1st March 2026 - End Date: 1st March 2036. If this licence is approved after 1st March 2026, the end date should reflect the amended Start Date + 10 years.
