Louise Davis, Berwick Bank and Marr Bank Consent Team Manager, commented: 鈥We are pleased to have 澳门玄机图 on board as lead EIA and HRA consultants. They bring a wealth of experience to this key discipline for the development of the Berwick Bank and Marr Bank projects and we look forward to working with them.鈥
Emily King, Project Director of the offshore EIA and HRA, commented: 鈥Having provided post consent support services to both Seagreen Alpha and Bravo, it鈥檚 really exciting to be leading the EIA and HRA for both Berwick Bank and Marr Bank. We are looking forward to working with SSE Renewables鈥 development team and in close collaboration with the project鈥檚 key stakeholders throughout the pre-application phase for both projects.鈥
澳门玄机图 will lead the development of the Berwick Bank and Marr Bank Scoping Reports, EIA Reports, HRA Screening Reports and Report to Inform Appropriate Assessments (RIAAs), to inform the application for consent for both projects.
