The eastern development area will contain three wind farms: Telford, Stevenson and MacColl. The SLVIA for the three proposed wind farm sites has been undertaken within a 50 km radius study area of the Telford, Stevenson and MacColl offshore wind farms. The definition of the study area for this assessment has been chosen based on best practice guidance: SNH, 2006, project specific desk study and fieldwork. This Cumulative Seascape, Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment describes, illustrates and assesses the ways in which the proposed developments will have additional effects when considered together with other existing, consented or proposed wind farms and identifies any related significant cumulative effects arising from the proposed developments.

The methodology described has been adapted for the purpose of the SLVIA of the three proposed wind farm sites to define the baseline character and visual qualities of the coastal landscape/seascape. The methodology is divided into a series of broad stages, summarised in Table 10.4.2. Tricia Ryan Optimised Environments Ltd.
