  <p pid="a.634.5/6" pwmotiontext="moved">(3) If risks are identified at the strategic planning or environmental impact assessment stages in the evaluation of proposed installations, the Secretary of State shall consider which of the following measures shall be introduced to eliminate or to reduce the risks to acceptable levels&#8212;</p>
  
  <p pid="a.634.5/7" pwmotiontext="moved">(a) the relocation of installations away from recognised sea lanes, navigational channels including port access channels, particularly where installations may cause interference to lanes essential to international navigation;</p>
