CEFAS23-85 Contract for Intertidal Sabellaria Monitoring Surveys at HPC (BTOT)

The BEEMS (British EDF Estuarine and Marine Studies) programme is funded by NNB GenCo (EDF Energy). Through this programme, Cefas provide authoritative scientific information on the marine and transitional waters in the vicinity of potential new build nuclear power stations and require a competent contractor to deliver the element described below.

Cefas require services to conduct intertidal Sabellaria monitoring surveys for the Hinkley Point C (HPC) Nuclear New Build project to meet regulatory environmental monitoring requirements. The Sabellaria monitoring programme focuses on hard substrate habitats present on the foreshore at Hinkley Point. As such, biological observations are collected every year.
