  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">This spatial dataset is an Atlas of Coastal and Marine Resources Sensitive to Oil Pollution in Wales. This data capture aims to highlight sensitive and vulnerable areas across Wales which maybe sensitive to oil pollution. It contains, but is not limited to, information on seabirds, scoter, wetland birds, grey seals, cetaceans, booming plans, protected sites, sand dunes, saline lagoons, sea grass beds and biotopes. This is intended for use by Natural Resources Wales (NRW) staff, but is a legacy Countryside Council for Wales&#x2019; dataset. It should be used when providing environmental advice during an oil spill response operation. It's primarily intended as a memory jogger during the early stages of operation. It provides information on the location of environmental resources only, background knowledge of the relative sensitivity and vulnerability of the resources is required when providing advice during marine pollution incidence. Covers the coast of Wales and adjacent coasts of England (east coast of Dee estuary to Hoylake and south coast of Bristol Channel to Porlock Bay). 1st edition published March 2003; currently being updated and 2nd edition to be published early 2009.</dc:description>
