Marine Licensing (Application Fees) Regulations 2014 (S.I. No. 615 of 2014).

These Regulations prescribe fees in relation to any application for a licence in relation to which the Secretary of State is the appropriate licensing authority under section 113 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. Under section 67(1)(b) of that Act the appropriate licensing authority may require that an application for a marine licence be accompanied by a fee. The Regulations define "specified activity" for purposes of fee scales. This category includes activities affecting an European site within the meaning of regulation 8(1) of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010, an activity likely to have a significant effect on a Ramsar site and an activity with respect to which an environmental impact assessment is required by virtue of regulation 5 (requirement of assessment by agreement) of the Marine Works (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2007.
