INTRODUCTION 1.1.1 This document has been prepared by RPS on behalf of Port of Milford Haven Authority (the applicant) regarding the proposed development at Pembroke Port, Pembroke Dock. 1.1.2 A detailed physical description of the existing site and the proposed development is provided within the accompanying Design and Access Statement (DAS) and Environmental Statement that this document should be read in conjunction with and is not, therefore, repeated here. 1.2 Background 1.2.1 In summary, the proposed development, Pembroke Dock Infrastructure, will facilitate the next generation of marine renewable energy technology and help to create a Marine Energy Engineering Centre of Excellence in the Swansea Bay City Region (SBCR), creating investment and jobs supported by the Swansea Bay City Deal (SBCD). It is one of the four main elements of the Pembroke Dock Marine (PDM) Project, a named project in the SBCD. 1.2.2 The proposed development is the outcome of lengthy period of consultation with Pembrokeshire County Council (PCC), Cadw and other stakeholders and consultees over the course of two years, focussing on the site’s location within the historic dockyard at Pembroke Port. 1.2.3 While the historic fabric of the historic dockyard has been compromised to a significant degree by successive phases of development over the course of its existence, the outcome of the process of consultation has been that there will be no wholesale irreversible loss of any statutorily designated historic asset within the application site as a result of the proposed development. Simultaneously, it will also accommodate modern large-scale marine engineering and fabrication buildings, open assembly and transition areas and a multi-purpose slipway with access to deep water and nearby marine testing and commercial deployment areas that will be attractive to marine renewable energy device developers and the associated suite of supporting marine businesses. 1.2.4 The proposal will deliver a large number of high quality jobs and contribute to meeting current and future generations’ energy needs while also addressing the challenge of climate change, contributing to Welsh and UK Governments’ targets for decarbonising Wales’ electricity generating systems by 2030 and achieving a 95% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and beyond. 1.2.5 The following section will review and summarise the legislative and policy context for the proposed development. 1.2.6 Section 3 will consider the key planning issues arising from the legislative and policy review and how the proposed development complies with the development plan and the key material considerations. 1.2.7 Section 4 provides an overall summary and conclusions.

  • Extravehicular Activity Operations and Advancements
    Extravehicular A dramatic expansion in extravehicular activity (EVA)—or “spacewalkin g”—capability occurred during the Space Shuttle Activity Program; this capability will tremendously benefit future space Operations and exploration. Walking in space became almost a routine event during the program—a far cry from the extraordinary occurrence it had been. Advancements Engineers had to accommodate a new cadre of astronauts that included women, and the tasks these spacewalkers were asked to do proved Nancy Patrick significantly more challenging than before. Spacewalkers would be Joseph Kosmo charged with building and repairing the International Space Station. James Locke Luis Trevino Most of the early shuttle missions helped prepare astronauts, engineers, Robert Trevino and flight controllers to tackle this series of complicated missions while also contributing to the success of many significant national resources—most notably the Hubble Space Telescope. Shuttle spacewalkers manipulated elements up to 9,000 kg (20,000 pounds), relocated and installed large replacement parts, captured and repaired failed satellites, and performed surgical-like repairs of delicate solar arrays, rotating joints, and sensitive Orbiter Thermal Protection System components. These new tasks presented unique challenges for the engineers and flight controllers charged with making EVAs happen. The Space Shuttle Program matured the EVA capability with advances in operational techniques, suit and tool versatility and function, training techniques and venues, and physiological protocols to protect astronauts while providing better operational efficiency. Many of these advances were due to the sheer number of EVAs performed. Prior to the start of the program, 38 EVAs had been performed by all prior US spaceflights combined.
