Phase I surveys of the littoral rock and sediment habitats were undertaken by Ecospan Environmental Ltd in July 2018. Phase Il surveys of the littoral rock communities were also carried out later that month. For the purposes of Water Framework Directive Assessment, the Environment Agency undertook quantitative sampling of the littoral sediments within the MCZ over two days in May and September 2018. The data was then used to inform this study.
