The report in this series has been produced in order to provide BODL with a post-construction comparison to baseline (EIA) and pre-construction characterisation of the fish and shellfish populations present in and around the Project. This report presents the findings of the otter trawl, set nets and potting surveys, which were undertaken by Natural Power Consultants Ltd.

Commission Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services 2010-12-08T00:00:00 publication Conformity with the Commission Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 was either not relevant to this dataset or not a requirement of the Marine Data Exchange for the creation and submission of this dataset; therefore, conformity has not been assessed and cannot be declared False series Three different methods (mirroring EIA and pre-construction surveys) using different fishing gear were selected to provide a baseline of the species present and their distribution in and around the wind farm site: • Trawl surveys using an otter trawl; • Potting survey; and • Static netting surveys using gill nets. The survey methodologies were approved by the MMO prior to survey commencement. Trawl and gill net surveys provide information on demersal fish species, while pots provide information on larger mobile invertebrates such as lobsters and crabs (Table 3.1). Throughout the inshore area of this site, it was not possible to trawl due to both the nature of the ground (rocky) and the presence of fixed gear (i.e. the pots and nets of local fishermen). Under these conditions, static nets were set in place of a trawl survey. Trawl and static net surveys were undertaken quarterly within the periods of marine seasons; potting surveys are undertaken on a biannual (twice per year) basis (in summer and winter) to reflect the target species migration patterns (Table 3.1). As surveys at sea are vulnerable to delay due to bad weather, surveying at regular intervals may not always be possible; therefore, each survey was set to take place within a specified marine season. Winter was defined as January to March, spring as April to June, summer as July to September, and autumn as October to December.
