publication
The benthic survey programme, developed by CMACS and approved by the Licence Authority, comprises grab survey (to sample infauna and sediment, reported separately) and 2m beam trawl to sample epifaunal invertebrates and small demersal fish, which is reported here. The programme commenced with baseline (pre-construction) surveys in autumn 2005. The report in this series presents the results of monitoring carried out in autumn 2009, more than two years after completion of major construction activities, and considers results of all four surveys (baseline, during construction and two post-construction) in relation to the potential effects of wind farm construction and operation on benthic environmental receptors.

The 2009 epifaunal invertebrate and fish survey was conducted over two days on the 26th and 27th September (just over 1 week after the benthic grab survey) using the survey vessel ‘Halcyon Days’ operating out of Canada Dock, Liverpool, and returning to berth on a daily basis. A standard CEFAS 2m beam trawl with a 4mm square mesh cod end equipped with a chain matrix was used, being towed at each site for a distance of 300m1 at a speed of 2 knots to allow sufficient warp for the trawl to “fish” the bottom properly. All tows were undertaken into the prevailing current and a total of 12 sites were surveyed (see Figure 1).
