PLEASE RING LEADER BEFOREHAND TO CHECK WALK IS TAKING PLACE Some walks are not allocated a specific day to maximise the weather options. Ring the walk leader on the Thursday evening for more information Walks Grading System Our grading system is generally similar to that used by many walking clubs throughout the UK and beyond: A Suitable for fit and experienced hill-walkers. Long mountain days with lots of ascent and descent over rough terrain, some of it steep. A+ indicates a grade at the top end of this category requiring scrambling experience, a good head for heights and the ability to cope with sustained traverses over very rugged and demanding terrain. B Suitable for regular walkers, fit novices or anyone who takes regular aerobic exercise. Mixture of paths, tracks and rough terrain with some steeper gradients in places. B+ indicates a grade at the top end of this category because of longer sections of rough terrain and/or steeper gradients. C Suitable for walkers with average fitness, limited experience, or anyone wanting to walk at an easy pace. Mainly on paths and tracks with easy gradients. C+ indicates a grade at the top end of this category because of some short sections of rougher terrain or steeper gradients (but not both together).

    Marine Scotland. Draft Sectoral Plan for Offshore Wind (Dec 2019) Supplementary Advice to SNH Consultation Response (25 March 2020). SNH Assessment of Potential Seascape, Landscape and Visual Impacts and Provision of Design Guidance This document sets out SNH’s Landscape and Visual Impact appraisal of each of the Draft Plan Option (DPO) areas presented in the above consultation and the opportunities for mitigating these, through windfarm siting and design. Due to its size, we are submitting it separately from our main response to the draft Plan. We had hoped to be able to submit this earlier within the consultation period and apologise that this was delayed slightly. Our advice is in three parts: Part 1. Context and Approach taken to Assessment Part 2. DPO Assessment and Design Guidance Part 3. DPO Assessment and Design Guidance: Supporting Maps Should you wish to discuss any of the matters raised in our response we would be pleased to do so. Please contact George Lees at [email protected] / 01738 44417. PART 1. CONTEXT AND APPROACH TAKEN TO ASSESSMENT Background 1. In late spring 2018 SNH were invited to participate as part of a Project Steering group to input to the next Sectoral Plan for Offshore Wind Energy by Marine Scotland. SNH landscape advisors with Marine Energy team colleagues recognised this as a real opportunity to manage on-going, planned change from offshore wind at the strategic and regional level, to safeguard nationally important protected landscapes and distinctive coastal landscape character. It also reflected our ethos of encouraging well designed sustainable development of the right scale in the right place and as very much part of early engagement.

    Moray Offshore Renewables Limited - Environmental Statement Telford, Stevenson and MacColl Offshore Wind Farms and Transmission Infrastructure 5 Human Environment 5.1 Commercial Fisheries 5.1 5.1.1 Introduction 5.1.1.1 This chapter summarises the baseline study of commercial fishing activities, including salmon and sea trout fisheries, in the vicinity of the three proposed development sites (Telford, Stevenson and MacColl) and the offshore transmission infrastructure (OfTI). For the purpose of this study, commercial fishing is defined as CHAPTER any legal fishing activity undertaken for declared taxable profit. 5.1.1.2 The following technical appendices support this chapter and can be found as: Technical Appendix 4.3 B (Salmon and Sea Trout Ecology Technical Report). Technical Appendix 5.1 A (Commercial Fisheries Technical Report). 5.1.1.3 For the purposes of this assessment, salmon and sea trout fisheries in the Moray Firth are separately addressed to other commercial fisheries, as a result of their being located largely in-river (with the exception of some coastal netting) and being different in nature to the majority of marine commercial fishing activities. In addition, due to the migratory behaviour of salmon and sea trout, fisheries have been assessed for all rivers flowing into the Moray Firth. It is also recognised that salmon is a qualifying feature or primary reason for Special Area of Conservation (SAC) site selection of the following rivers in the Moray Firth: Berriedale and Langwell Waters SAC (primary reason); River Moriston
