This Scoping Report sets out the proposed content, methodologies and key issues to be included in the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and the resulting ES to be submitted with the DCO application. The purpose of this document is to support a request for a scoping opinion for an EIA from the IPC. It is also intended that this report builds upon consultation carried out to date and supports ongoing consultation with statutory and non-statutory consultees and stakeholders on the scope of the EIA required for the Walney Extension offshore wind farm. The Scoping Report is structured in sections relating to principal topic areas, providing an overview of the project, the developer, and the assessment and consents process by way of an introduction section (Chapter 1), a description of the project (Chapter 2), the scoping of environmental offshore and onshore impacts with summary tables of potential impacts (Chapter 3), and finally an overview of the consultation process and the probable dates of the various steps leading to the grant of the DCO and subsequent construction and operation (Chapter 4). Within Chapter 3 (Scoping of Environmental Impacts), specific topics are arranged within categories of physical, biological, human offshore environments and onshore environments. Each of these subsections presents a description of baseline conditions from field and survey work followed by an assessment of potential impacts and the studies and surveys proposed to address these within the EIA.

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This Scoping Report has been informed by the following range of activities carried out from around mid 2002 to mid 2010: - Data collection, subsequent assessment and modelling for both the Wind Farm under Construction and the Project site (from June to December 2009); - Work undertaken to date on the Wind Farm under Construction, including surveys and studies carried out before and during construction (from 2004 to 2010 – see relevant Tables in Chapter 3 for a full list of surveys and studies); - Discussions and meetings with key stakeholders likely to be affected by the development of the Project (during October and November 2009 – see Section 4.3.1 for more details); - Discussions with the development consultants who worked on the development of the Wind Farm under Construction, meetings with DONG Energy construction colleagues in Denmark and Barrow-in-Furness (from June to November 2009); - Information contained in the Walney offshore wind farm Environmental Statement (or 'Walney ES, 2006') published in March 2006 (DONG, 2006); - DONG Energy's experience from developing, constructing and operating other offshore wind farms in Denmark and the United Kingdom. This report also includes a proposed table of contents for the Environmental Statement for the Project (see Appendix A). |
