The Scoping Areas of Search are: Orkney and Shetland North Sutherland Coast North West of Cape Wrath 3.1 Resource Orkney and Shetland 3.1.1 Wave resource is strong in the sea space that holds the wave area of search between Orkney and Shetland; the mean annual wave power densities that can be expected at this area of search reach a maximum of 40.5 kWatt m-1 and a minimum of 18.76 kWatt m-2. Mean annual wind power densities are of 34.4 5 kWatt m-1 in this area. 3.1.2 Summer mean wave power density is of 10.9 kWatt m-1 and winter mean power density is six times that at 59 kWatt m-1 . 3.1.3 Annual mean significant wave height is 2.48 m. In the summer the mean significant wave height is 1.63 m and the same figure for winter is 3.36 m . 3.1.4 Within the area of search the resource is higher towards the north-western part and decreases in the areas closer to the shoreline. North West of Cape Wrath & North Sutherland Coast 3.1.5 Wave resource is strong in the wave area of search at the North West of Cape Wrath, the karger of the two areas included in the map. The mean annual wave power densities that can be expected reach a maximum of 46.04 kWatt m-1 and a minimum of 27.59 kWatt m-2.

Scotland is a world- class sea-kayaking destination, the Scottish Islands being rightly famous for the standard of paddling they offer. The north and east coasts are to some extent the Cinderellas of the Scottish coastline. They don’t have as many islands as the west or north, but they will richly reward your efforts to explore their hidden nooks and crannies.

This opportunity will also mean challenges for developers and licensing authorities in balancing the needs of a growing industry with other users of the marine environment. This Regional Locational Guidance collates information from a wide variety of sources to assist the wind, wave and tidal energy developers in situating their developments.

    Wild Seaweed Harvesting Strategic Environmental Assessment Environmental Report November 2016 Wild Seaweed Harvesting: Environmental Report Wild Seaweed Harvesting Strategic Environmental Assessment Environmental Report November 2016 . 1 Wild Seaweed Harvesting: Environmental Report Non-Technical Summary What is the role of this Strategic Environmental Assessment? The Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Act 2005 requires the assessment of certain plans, programmes and strategies (including policies) that may have significant effects on the environment. Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is the process used to fulfil this requirement, and includes consultation with the public and the Consultation Authorities. A screening exercise was carried out by Marine Scotland and this found that wild seaweed and seagrass harvesting has the potential to give rise to significant environmental effects unless it is undertaken in a sustainable manner. It was concluded that an SEA should be prepared. A scoping exercise was carried out and a Scoping Report was prepared and issued to the Consultation Authorities in November 2015. This document set out the approach to and scope of the SEA. Marine Scotland commissioned ABP Marine Environmental Research Ltd. (ABPmer) to provide technical support to the SEA and this Environmental Report. The purpose of this report is to document the findings of the SEA. How was the Strategic Environmental Assessment undertaken? Schedule 3 of the Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Act 2005 sets out the environmental factors or topics that may be subject to SEA. The scoping exercise identified that the following SEA topics should be scoped into the SEA and assessed: Biodiversity, flora and fauna; Climatic factors; and Cultural heritage. The potential environmental effects of harvesting on each of these SEA topics have been assessed using the set of Key Questions that were developed at the scoping stage.

  • Scientific Advice on Matters Related to the Management of Seal Populations: 2008
    Scientific Advice on Matters Related to the Management of Seal Populations: 2008 Contents Scientific Advice ANNEX I Terms of reference and membership of SCOS ANNEX II Briefing papers for SCOS 2008 1 SCOS Main Advice 2008 Scientific advice Background Under the Conservation of Seals Act 1970, the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) has a duty to provide scientific advice to government on matters related to the management of seal populations. NERC has appointed a Special Committee on Seals (SCOS) to formulate this advice so that it may discharge this statutory duty. Terms of Reference for SCOS and its current membership are given in ANNEX I. Formal advice is given annually based on the latest scientific information provided to SCOS by the Sea Mammal Research Unit (SMRU – a NERC Collaborative Centre at the University of St Andrews). SMRU also provides government with scientific reviews of applications for licences to shoot seals, information and advice in response to parliamentary questions and correspondence, and responds on behalf of NERC to questions raised by government departments about the management of marine mammals in general. This report provides scientific advice on matters related to the management of seal populations for the year 2007. It begins with some general information on British seals, gives information on their current status, and addresses specific questions raised by the Scottish Government Marine Directorate (SGMD) and the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). Appended to the main report are briefing papers used by SCOS, which provide additional scientific background for the advice. General information on British seals Grey seals The grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) is the larger of the two species of seal that breed around the British Isles.
