Follow-up measures
Visual monitoring of marine mammals and birds
Objectives and methodology
The main objective of the “visual” monitoring of marine mammals and birds is to determine the impact of the work and operation of the wind farm off the coast of Saint-Brieuc Bay on these groups. These monitoring will also improve local knowledge. These were last communicated to the CGS in April 2019.
Boat observations are carried out by two observers simultaneously, each covering one side of a boat and focusing on a 300 m swath.
A transect-type protocol is also deployed for high-definition aerial monitoring. The films made during outings are analyzed back on land.
