Metadata: 2004, EMU Ltd., Kentish Flats Offshore Wind Farm, Intertidal Cable Lying Monitoring Survey
Abstract:
A survey of the intertidal zone of the proposed Kentish Flats Wind Farm cable landfall area was undertaken by Emu Ltd on behalf of Kentish Flats. The survey is part of the specifications for the site environmental management plan through the pre-construction phase as outlined by FEPA licence conditions. The aim of the study was to establish an ecological baseline of the infaunal benthic communities of the intertidal area within and peripheral to the proposed cable landfall area against which any impacts resulting from the installation of the cable can be assessed. The intertidal survey comprised core sampling of the intertidal sediment along two transects within the route landfall area and a transect within a reference area outside the cable route.

| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | A survey of the intertidal zone of the proposed Kentish Flats Wind Farm cable landfall area was undertaken by Emu Ltd on behalf of Kentish Flats. The survey is part of the specifications for the site environmental management plan through the pre-construction phase as outlined by FEPA licence conditions. The aim of the study was to establish an ecological baseline of the infaunal benthic communities of the intertidal area within and peripheral to the proposed cable landfall area against which any impacts resulting from the installation of the cable can be assessed. The intertidal survey comprised core sampling of the intertidal sediment along two transects within the route landfall area and a transect within a reference area outside the cable route. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The intertidal survey comprised core sampling of the intertidal sediment along three transects, of which two were within the route landfall area and a third within a reference area outside the cable route. The sample stations were agreed with the Client following consultation with CEFAS and English Nature, and based on the advice given in Annex I of the FEPA licence conditions (3178/03/0). Results of the survey will provide an ecological baseline of the sediment characteristics and the infaunal benthic communities of the intertidal area within and peripheral to the proposed cable, against which any impacts resulting from the works associated with lying the cable can be assessed. |
