Harbour Baseline Survey for Environmental Status

Overview and Justification

Baseline studies are fundamental in evaluating the health of an environment. A healthy environment is one with low pollutant doses present and a successful and actively functioning ecosystem. Although a coastal environment may be actively used for commercial and recreational objectives it is still possible to sustain a healthy system. This baseline study was carried out in July 2009 and the results must be seen in the context of a single temporal interpretation. The sampling design and objectives were discussed with stakeholders and the results have been disseminated through the same route.

Sampling Strategy

Twenty-nine sites were collected along a transect extending from the inner bay towards its mouth, using a Van Veen grab (See Map 1). Three samples were taken at each site. Water samples were also taken to measure a range of parameters relating to the nutrient status of the water and the presence of enteric bacteria.

Methods of Analysis

A wide range of chemicals was measured in the sediment. These included the elements arsenic, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, manganese, nickel and zinc. Oil was also measured by evaluating the concentrations of the petroleum-type fraction and also the weathered “difficult to degrade” fractions.
