About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to MacArthur Green Ltd for evidence-based assessments of the likelihood of success of potential compensatory measures to offset predicted impacts of offshore wind energy developments on seabird populations in selected Special Protection Areas (SPAs).

The assessments focused on four species at specific SPAs: kittiwake at Flamborough & Filey Coast SPA, lesser black-backed gull at the Alde-Ore Estuary SPA, Sandwich tern at North Norfolk Coast SPA, and red-throated diver at Outer Thames Estuary SPA and Liverpool Bay SPA.

The work involved evidence reviews, analyses, and modelling, considering only ecological evidence and plausible like-for-like measures, with costings provided for planning, evidence review, analysis, synthesis, and reporting.

The contract value was AUD 34,835.
