Two documents have been produced to inform the development of a marine spatial plan in the Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters. The Planning Issues and Options Paper explores the existing use of the marine area and the management of resources and sets out a range of options for how marine development and management can be taken forward. The paper aims to facilitate stakeholder and community consultation on the plan's strategic objectives, key themes and policy approaches. It is not a draft version of the plan; rather is suggests planning options to support the preparation of the draft pilot marine spatial plan. The Environmental Report has been prepared to meet the requirements of the Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Act 2005. It is part of a Strategic Environmental Assessment, which is a means of considering the environment when preparing public plans, programmes and strategies. It identifies potential environmental effects and where necessary, proposes how these effects can be avoided or reduced. Through consultation, it also provides an opportunity for the public to express their views on the proposed pilot marine spatial plan policies and their potential enviromental impacts.
