This section covers the onshore biological environment within and surrounding the proposed East Anglia THREE and East Anglia FOUR onshore cable route and Indicative Converter Station location. The eastern boundary is determined by the Mean Low Water Springs (MLWS) mark within the export cable landfall and also includes the rivers at the point which cables or infrastructure cross them regardless of whether the river is tidal at that point.
3.1 Designated sites
3.1.1 Statutory Designated Sites 15.
The cable route for East Anglia THREE and East Anglia FOUR falls within the 75m wide, 37km long cable route identified during the development of East Anglia ONE. Table 2 presents the 14 statutory designated sites that are within 2km of the cable route and Indicative Converter Station location (EAOW, 2012a). Descriptions of the sites are taken directly from their citations or from the Natural England website (as listed below Table 2)). Distance and direction are measured from the nearest point of the designation to the nearest point of the onshore cable route or Indicative Converter Station location, whichever element of onshore electrical transmission works is closer. The distances are rounded to the nearest 0.1km.
