CARDINAL and SPECIAL MARKER BUOYS are marking the site, see chartlet attached, and as this area is still recognised as a construction site all mariners are requested and advised to mark the positions of these Buoys on their charts/plotters and unless there are matters relating to their own safety or the safety of others they should keep clear and not enter the buoyed area until the Wind Farm has been fully commissioned with the Buoys removed and you have been informed.
CTV’s and other service craft will continue to transit between the shore base at the Camell Laird Shipyard and the Wind Farm site ferrying out technicians engaged on monitoring and testing work until final commissioning.
