Metadata: 2013, Gardline Environmental Ltd, Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm, Tranche B and Teesside Cable Corridor Benthic Survey (July 2012 - November 2012)
Abstract:
Gardline Environmental Ltd (GEL) carried out a benthic characterisation survey for Forewind Ltd (hereafter referred to as Forewind) throughout Tranche B and the associated Teesside Cable Corridor (TCC) routes (Northern and Southern) for the Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm (OWF) Project. Forewind aims to develop a series of wind farms on Dogger Bank in four stages known as tranches (Forewind, 2012a). Survey work for Tranche B was conducted during July 2012 onboard the MV Vigilant with the survey of TCC routes conducted during September 2012 and October 2012 onboard the MV Vigilant for the offshore section and during November 2012 on the MV Titan Endeavour for the inshore section of the route. Within Tranche B, a total of 55 stations were pre-selected by the Client to undertake camera investigation of the habitat and grab sampling for particle size and faunal analyses, 11 of which were also to be sampled for contaminant analyses. Along the TCC routes, 120 stations were pre-selected for camera investigation, of which 74 were selected for grab sampling for particle size and faunal analyses, including 24 stations for contaminant analyses.

| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Gardline Environmental Ltd (GEL) carried out a benthic characterisation survey for Forewind Ltd (hereafter referred to as Forewind) throughout Tranche B and the associated Teesside Cable Corridor (TCC) routes (Northern and Southern) for the Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm (OWF) Project. Forewind aims to develop a series of wind farms on Dogger Bank in four stages known as tranches (Forewind, 2012a).

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Camera operations utilised a digital stills camera and video system with a freshwater lens in order to ground truth the geophysical survey data and to investigate the survey areas for the presence of features of conservation importance. A modified mini-Hamon grab was used to acquire one 0.1m2 sample at each station, with a sub-sample also taken for particle size analysis (PSA). One 0.1m2 grab sample was acquired at all but four of the 55 Tranche B sampling locations and three of the 74 TCC sampling locations. A Day grab was used to acquire two 0.1m2 samples at each station specified for contaminant sampling. Two 0.1m2 Day grab samples were acquired at all ofthe 11 Tranche B sampling locations and all bar three of the 24 TCC sampling locations. |
