Executive Summary Under (EC) Regulation 854/2004, which sets forth specific rules for the organisation of official controls on products of animal origin intended for human consumption, sanitary surveys of production areas and their associated hydrological catchments and coastal waters are required in order to establish the appropriate representative monitoring points (RMPs) for the monitoring programme. The purpose of the sanitary survey is to demonstrate compliance with the requirements stated in Annex II (Chapter II Paragraph 6) of Regulation (EC) 854/2004. The sanitary survey results in recommendations on the location of RMPs, the frequency of sampling for microbiological monitoring, and the boundaries of the production areas deemed to be represented by the RMPs. A sanitary survey was undertaken on the mussel fishery at Stromness Voe on the basis recommended in the European Union Reference Laboratory publication: “Microbiological Monitoring of Bivalve Mollusc Harvesting Area Guide to Good Practice: Technical Application” (http://www.crlcefas.org/gpg.asp). This production area was selected for survey at this time based on a risk-based ranking of the area amongst those in Scotland that have yet to receive sanitary surveys. Stromness Voe is long narrow voe located on the west side of Mainland Shetland, opening to the waters around the Scalloway archipelago. It is flanked by two promontories of land: Strom Ness on the western side and White Ness on the eastern side. The area around the voe is sparsely populated with crofts lining the adjacent Whiteness Voe, and the small settlement of Haggersta located near the head of the voe. Stromness Voe fishery is a common mussel (Mytilus edulis) aquaculture fishery made up of three separate mussel farm sites. The principal sources of faecal contamination to this fishery are: · Diffuse pollution from livestock, mainly sheep. · Wildlife present at or near the fisheries (mainly seabirds) · Septic tank discharges associated with houses around the north end of the voe and in the southern part of Loch of Stromness. One septic tank at the north end of the voe was found to be malfunctioning. Faecal contaminants are likely to be carried only short distances by tidal transport, and therefore wind-driven flows may be predominant. Prevailing winds would tend to drive these northward in the voe. Contaminants arising to the north of the fisheries are likely to be carried in lower salinity surface waters moving out from the Loch of Strom. The bacteriological survey showed higher contamination levels in samples taken from the tops of the mussel lines at the northeast end of the Burra Voe site. Stromness Voe Sanitary Survey Report – V1.0 07/01/2014 1 Higher mussel E. coli results were found to occur at high and ebb tides and also when the tides were increasing from neap to springs. Summary of recommendations Based on the locations of the currently active fisheries, it was recommended that the production area boundaries be curtailed in the north to exclude potential septic tank sources around the north end of the voe and at the south east to exclude the septic tank at Pund. The recommended monitoring point should remain at Burra Holm, but be relocated to the northeast extent of the farm to better reflect sources arising to the north of the fishery as

    VIKING WIND FARM ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT 1 3 . CULTURAL HERITAGE 13.1 INTRODUCTION AOC Archaeology Group was commissioned by BMT Cordah on behalf of Shetland Islands Council and Viking Energy Partnership to undertake an archaeological assessment of the proposed Viking Wind Farm in Shetland to further inform the planning process. The proposed development will include the construction of a wind farm, comprising 150 turbines and a road system consisting of operational tracks, borrow pits and double and single width tracks. Cartographic and bibliographic sources indicate that the area of the proposed wind farm has been subject to extensive human activity from prehistoric times to the present. Circa 89 sites have been identified within the vicinity of the application area. The majority of these sites date to the post-medieval crofting period and comprise the remains of upstanding farm buildings, houses and mills. Several sites potentially dating to the prehistoric period have been located within the proposed development area and include standing stones, cairns and a possible Bronze Age settlement. A number of prehistoric findspots are also known within the proposed development area; with a number of stone axes, knifes and adzes being recovered, primarily from the Kergord and Delting Quadrants. Included in the 89 sites identified in the immediate vicinity of the application area are one Scheduled Ancient Monument and one Category B Listed Building. Hill of Dale chambered cairn is located within the Delting Quadrant. Grobsness Haa, an 18 th century Category B Listed Building, is located within the Kergord quadrant. Assessment of the direct impacts upon sites known within the proposed development area has been based upon the turbine and access track layout provided by the client.

He also wishes to thank Dr Derek Mcglashan at the University of Dundee for his advice on udal law, Dr Olivia Bragg at the University of Dundee for her advice on peat slides, and Professor Alistair Dawson at Coventry University for information on historic storms. In addition, he would also like to thank Dr David Cameron and David Okill of the Scottish Environment Protection Agency for their comments on the draft of this paper. Note This paper was issued in July 2003 and a copy given to Shetland Islands Council. Please note this is an edited version which omits details of certain specific areas of concern. Funding This research was made possible by funding from esure insurance services Ltd. Abstract Shetland is one of the stormiest places in Europe. The islands are very exposed to westerly gales from the North Atlantic and over the years the population has learned to ensure that the buildings are constructed to high standards of resilience. As a result, wind damage is rare and minor even in the strongest storms. The islands are therefore a good example of how resilient design and construction can reduce vulnerability to such an extent that the risk is minimised even in areas exposed to severe hazards. Key words: Shetland, storm, vulnerability, flood, climate change, insurance. Introduction The Shetland Islands, or Shetland2 is a group of islands, located 200km to the North of the British mainland.
