17 Sub-blocks

(1) This is how a sub-block is constituted in coastal waters—

(a) assume that there is laid over the coastal waters a grid constituted by—
(i) lines running along meridians drawn through each degree of longitude and the minutes between those degrees; and
(ii) lines running along parallels drawn through each degree of latitude and the minutes between those degrees;
(b) take a bounded space defined by the grid;
(c) the seabed and subsoil within the coastal waters that is under that space is a sub-block.

(2) The diagram in schedule 2 shows how a sub-block is constituted.

(3) Each sub-block is identified by giving the name of the plan in the 1:1000000 map series, an identifying number of the 5 minute block and a letter identifying the 1 minute sub-block.
