Survey covered 141 km2 with 100 benthic sampling sites arranged to cover the deposits within the Licence Application Areas and for a distance of 18 km in each direction along the potential zone of dispersion on the flood and ebb tides. Surveys were conducted using a Hamon grab of 0.2m2. Macrofauna >1mm was identified. Depth of sample, deposit composition and volume in litres were all recorded. Sediments ranged from sand, shells and gravel to shelly sand. Six epibenthic trawls were also undertaken and fish species recorded.
