East Anglia ONE North and TWO Ecology Surveys (March 2023)
We will be undertaking non-intrusive ecology walkover surveys in the development area between March and September. This work will involve surveyors walking along a pre-defined route in order to record breeding birds and reptiles present on site and in the surrounding area. We will ensure host parish councils are notified accordingly.
We informed previously that surveys would be taking place throughout 2023 and should any be intrusive, further details will be provided. We understand that communities are keen to hear more about the projects and we are committed to providing as much information as possible as and when it becomes available.
East Anglia THREE community engagement
Edward Rees re-joined ScottishPower Renewables last year as Community Liaison Officer for East Anglia THREE, having previously worked on East Anglia ONE. Edward organised Public Information Days prior to the installation of temporary Consolidated Construction Sites (CCSs) last summer, giving the local community an opportunity to meet the project management team and ask questions about the construction works.
Further events will be held in summer 2023, prior to the installation of the remaining CCSs. Organisations can also request SPR attendance at events and meetings and, dependent on programme and availability, these will be honoured where possible.
If you have any questions about East Anglia THREE, you can contact us at eastangliathree@scottishpower.com. Further information on our approach to community engagement is available in our Project Community and Public Relations Procedure.
