JNCC/ Natural England
East Anglia THREE Scoping Opinion (IPC 2012)
EIA should consider the environment holistically, and not as a discrete set of individually sensitive receptors. Within the scoping report, EAOW have made a number of suggestions regarding assessment that could be undertaken to help us understand the ecosystem linkages between receptors, and to determine how impacts on one receptor may influence others, such as impacts to fish which may be important as prey species for birds and marine mammals. We consider that such inter-relationships are likely to be key in interpreting the environmental impacts of Round 3 development.
Recommend the developer engage with JNCC and NE in the pre-application stage of the PINS consenting regime, to deal with key environmental concerns prior to submission.
Recommends PEIR as a draft of the ES to allow time for areas of concern to be raised and resolved prior to submission of the final ES to PINS.
Marine Management Organisation (MMO)
East Anglia THREE Scoping Opinion (IPC 2012)
Impacts to demersal spawning species, sandeel and herring to be assessed.
Recommend that spawning times of commercially important species - sole, plaice, cod are considered in EIA and mitigation proposed where appropriate.
The MMO recommends that non-commercially important species e.g. Sprat and Herring are considered within the ES. This is because of the importance of such species in supporting ecosystems in the North Sea and supporting commercial species.
Data sources provided are appropriate and the MMO welcomes the inclusion of International Bottom Trawl Survey (IBTS) data.

East Anglia THREE Offshore Windfarm
Sprat, herring and non-commercial species are considered where relevant in section 11.6
Section 11.5.4, and Appendix 11.2 Section 11.4.3.4 and Appendix 11.2.
Appendix 11.1
This suggested approach has been taken to PEIR
