Building Warrant and Road Construction Consent proposals have been prepared. The tender documents will include a NBS. There will be contractor designed elements. Opportunities for cost savings will be considered. The site has been affected by electricity supply constraints but these have been resolved through negotiation between Moray Council and SSEN.
