For the purposes of this assessment a realistic worst case scenario, taking account of the engineering parameters with the potential to cause the greatest effect upon fish and shellfish resources, has been described. In order to support the assessment and provide an indication of the ecological significance of the predicted noise impact ranges, the location and extent of spawning grounds is provided for herring, cod and plaice and, in the case of salmon, the location of SAC rivers. Noise sensitvity studies have been done for Dab, Cod, Herring and Salmon.
