2005-2006, PMSS, North Hoyle, Annual FEPA Monitoring Report

This project concerns the monitoring undertaken during 2005-6 to comply with the conditions of the Food and Environment Protection Act (FEPA) 1985: Part II (as amended), licence reference 31579/02/0 (as amended), issued to NWP Offshore Ltd. for the North Hoyle Offshore Wind Farm. This report represents the second year of post-construction monitoring and the 4th of a 5th year monitoring programme. As the most recent environmental monitoring results are assimilated and compared against those of previous monitoring campaigns at the site, it is now becoming possible to make preliminary conclusions on the overall impact from construction and operation of the wind farm on the physical and biological environment.
