United Kingdom of Bretonia
Base Construction and Zoning Database
Information
This document contains the installation registration bureau of the Kingdom of Bretonia, whereupon license applications may be submitted, as well as the complete list of legal and illegal installations within the Realm for usage by Lawful Agencies.
1 - Enforcement of Base Regulations
All bases must be registered before construction commences. Any unregistered base will be deconstructed as soon as possible, following a declaration of intent through the public channels.
If, during these operations, the base administrators are present or otherwise contact us, they will be given one chance to register and comply with Bretonia's demands. The base may be placed under siege to ensure compliance.
Bretonia does not accept liability for loss of life or property due to the construction of an illegal installation. Best effort shall be made to recover the crew of any station outfitted with escape pods - Station Commanders that fail to fit life pods to their stations will also be charged with gross negligence and manslaughter. Crews who surrender themselves to the Crown's justice will be held by the BPA, prior to a sentence being passed.
Installations operated by Hostile Entities will be given no quarter and destroyed on sight.
Registered bases may be subject to consequences, up to and including deconstruction after a declaration of intent, for breaching any of the below or above conditions.
2 - Conditions for Base Registration
Permission for base construction is to be granted at the discretion of the Bretonian Government, and is considered on a case-by-case basis. For a base to be registered, the following conditions must be met. Failure to provide any of the points listed below will result in the immediate non-reimbursable voiding of the registration process.
The Owner must not belong to an entity considered Hostile or Unfriendly to the Kingdom of Bretonia (see: Article 1 - Hostile Entities);
The location and name of the base must be explicitly detailed (can be broadcast privately for the sake of confidentiality);
The personal name and employer / affiliation of the base administrator or point of contact;
The base's intended purpose and duties must be explained;
Entities to be permitted docking rights must be listed;
A £500,000 credit deposit must be filed with the QCG|HMS-Dauntless (the deposit will be subtracted from zoning fees).
A Registration Fee is paid only once. Bases already permitted at the time of these Zoning Regulations coming into effect will not be required to pay further Registration Fees. Bases re-registering due to a change of ownership are not required to pay another Registration Fee.
The cost of registering a new installation varies, depending on the cartographic region the structure is located in.
An additional fine up to the Registration Fee will be imposed for the first registration of pre-existing stations. Permission must always be sought prior to construction being initiated.
Pricing* is as follows:
Zone 1: Cambridge, New London - 5,000,000 credits;
Zone 2: Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle - 3,000,000 credits;
Zone 3: Systems directly bordering Bretonia Proper - 8,000,000 credits;**
Additional fees***: +2 Million Credits per existing Licensed Installation within the system. i.e. New London license: 5 Million Credits; Current number of bases: 10, multiplied by 2 per base; total cost: 5 + 20 = 25 Million Credits
* Bases built for purpose of rebuilding/reconstruction of destroyed bases are to be exempt from base Registration Fees. Permission to build is still required.
** It is only mandatory to register installations located within Bretonia Proper, however non-Bretonian Military, Police, Intelligence or Corporate stations located beyond Bretonia Proper will not receive aid in the event of attack by hostile entities.
Such installations may voluntarily register to obtain the Kingdom's protection. Should such installations seek the assistance of the Kingdom after a siege has been initiated, the cost of voluntary registration will be doubled due to the extraordinary circumstances.
*** Constructing a base in a system without an already established modular installation will allow claiming of the pioneering bonus; the pioneering bonus waives additional fees and, should the base be constructed with the help of existing corporate groups (Bretonia Mining & Fabrication; Galway Frontiers; Bowex) will waive off 75% off the zoning costs.
4 - Base Operational Requirements
The following Regulations are expected to be consistently and permanently observed by all Station Owners. Failure to comply with these Regulations may result in the structure's siege and destruction. Regulations are as follows:
No Hostile Entities (see: 1 - Definition of Entities) may be permitted to land on the station. Authorities may request evidence of docking permission logs at any time to confirm this.
All stations must have docking permission at all times for Bretonian Law Enforcement Agencies: this includes the BAF|, [SIS] and BPA);
All bases must remain above a threshold of 85% of total HP to remain in a legal state. Should a base fall below this threshold for over one week, the base may be de-registered and removed for improper safety regulations;
All Bases must be fitted with sufficient evacuation equipment to prevent the loss of life of residents and crew, should the Base become compromised via circumstances artificial or natural.
5 - Base Modification and Ownership Transfers
Station Owners are free to make whatever internal station modifications they see fit, including the construction of Storage Berths, Refineries and Factories.
Permission must be sought from the Bretonian Government or the BAF Admiralty Boardbefore the placement of Weapon Platforms, due to the highly dangerous nature of the structures. Once permission has been granted, the Owners of the Structure may only place up to four (4) Platforms unless given special permission.
In the event that a station is sold or otherwise changes owners or affiliation, the structure must be re-registered to ensure the new operators are fit and proper persons and compliant with Bretonian law. This re-registration does not require the payment of a Registration Fee. Failure to notify the Bretonian government of such a transfer will result in the base being deregistered.
