| Keyhaven Marshes: Marine Biodiversity Action Planning in SE England |
The management of our coastal environment is a highly dynamic and challenging area of work. Poseidon has been involved in a number of coastal management initiatives that ensure that fisheries and marine aquaculture development operates in harmony with other coastal uses. More recently we have successfully delivered pilot schemes to test the practical implementation of Marine Planning. Much of the Company’s work has been at a strategic level for nations or regions, integrating fisheries management plans with wider coastal practises.
Poseidon is experienced in the integration of environmental aspects, as with the adoption of the ecosystem approach to fisheries management, and we appreciate the need to ensure coastal and marine development is sustainable. We have been actively involved in various environmental projects including the development of sustainability criteria & indicators and the establishment of an appropriate network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).
Poseidon staff are highly experienced practitioners of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) for plans & projects and in assessing their impact on European designated sites via Appropriate Assessment (AA).
