The survey strategy was specifically adapted to meet a request from Michael Young of English Nature (now Natural England) for additional intertidal work in relation to information provided for an appropriate assessment of cable landfall works (CMACS 2005). The methods have been designed to assess the effect of cable trenching on the intertidal invertebrates as a food resource for birds.

Biotope Survey a. Walk over biotope survey of the cable route corridor supported by sediment core samples. b. Additional 1m2 quadrats to check for presence of larger burrowing animals that might be missed by core sampling. 2. Rapid Bioassessment a. Re-sampling of selected sediment cores from 1, a.
