Metadata: 2011-2012, RPS, Zone 1 - Moray Firth, OFTO Hydrology, Geology and Contaminated Land Impact Assessment
Abstract:
This series presents the detailed Phase 1 Desk Study in support of Chapters 8.1, 15.1.4 and 18.1 for Telford, Stevenson and MacColl Wind Farms and Associated Transmission Infrastructure Environmental Statement (ES) including: · Desk based research of geological plans, SEPA Aquifer and Vulnerability Maps, BGS online borehole records and hydrological plans; · Data requests from SEPA and Aberdeenshire Council covering landfills, potentially contaminated land records and private water supplies; · Site walkover details for areas of interest in the onshore cable route; · Preliminary peat probing information; · Review of historical map records for the onshore cable route held by National Map Library of Scotland; and · Development of a conceptual site model to represent historic sites and completion of preliminary risk assessment of potentially contaminated land.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 18660 |
| 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. | 2011-2012, RPS, Zone 1 - Moray Firth, OFTO Hydrology, Geology and Contaminated Land Impact Assessment |
| 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. | 4b4565b9-c4e2-4987-a796-5f9083e6d499 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CES-369 |
| 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 | 2011-10-31 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-05-08 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | This series presents the detailed Phase 1 Desk Study in support of Chapters 8.1, 15.1.4 and 18.1 for Telford, Stevenson and MacColl Wind Farms and Associated Transmission Infrastructure Environmental Statement (ES) including: · Desk based research of geological plans, SEPA Aquifer and Vulnerability Maps, BGS online borehole records and hydrological plans; · Data requests from SEPA and Aberdeenshire Council covering landfills, potentially contaminated land records and private water supplies; · Site walkover details for areas of interest in the onshore cable route; · Preliminary peat probing information; · Review of historical map records for the onshore cable route held by National Map Library of Scotland; and · Development of a conceptual site model to represent historic sites and completion of preliminary risk assessment of potentially contaminated land. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | In order to determine the potential for the onshore cable route to be impacted by historical potentially contaminated land, historical mapping research was undertaken by reviewing the relevant historical paper maps held at the National Library of Scotland’s Map Library in Edinburgh. Details of the historical maps reviewed are included in Appendix 5. Appendix 8 also contains a complete list of the identified sites (Historic Sites Record). A number of key historical maps are presented in Appendix 5. This process was supplemented by undertaking consultations with Aberdeenshire Council regarding their record of potential contaminated sites and contaminative activities. |
