Metadata: 2020-2021, HiDef, Galloper, Post-construction Bird Monitoring Year 2 Survey
Abstract:
The Galloper OWF Ornithology Monitoring Bridging Report, prepared by GoBe Consultants Ltd for RWE Renewables, aimed to evaluate the impact of the Galloper Wind Farm (GWF) on the Lesser Black-backed Gull (LBBG) population. Finalized in April 2023, the study included methodologies such as GPS tracking, aerial surveys, and post-construction evaluations conducted between 2019 and 2023, though the exact number of participants was not specified. Findings revealed no significant changes in LBBG populations due to the wind farm operations, with minimal avoidance behaviors observed and a conclusion that a third year of aerial surveys was unnecessary. The report recommends the ongoing monitoring of the area to maintain adherence to approved methodologies, ensuring the assessment of ornithological interests continues given the low collision risk and the stable population dynamics.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 11496 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2020-2021, HiDef, Galloper, Post-construction Bird Monitoring Year 2 Survey |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | aca5abce-d982-49cb-91af-a9d7b315d08d |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MDE-TCE-Galloper-2020-2021 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2025-10-24 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2025-10-24 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | his is the first annual report from the Galloper wind farm post construction monitoring phase. The reporting is split into two separate documents: • Volume 1: Lesser black-backed gull Larus fuscus (LBBG); and • Volume 2: All other species. Methods and reporting follow from the agreed Ornithological Monitoring Plan (OMP) (Revision 7, 2018) which was submitted to the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) to allow discharge (either partially or completely) those conditions in the Development Consent Order (DCO) Schedule 2 Part 2 deemed Marine License (DML) associated with ornithological monitoring. This updated plan (dated December 2018) takes into account changes set out in the MMO comments on the Ornithology Baseline Report sent to Galloper Wind Farm Limited (GWFL) on 23.06.2016, relating to coinciding the initial post-construction aerial surveys and tagging studies. |
