The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Agency (NOAA) of the US published its report last month from the marine mammal and sound workshop held in July 2010. It's online here http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/permits/mammals_sound_workshop.htm

I thought I’d let you know where you can catch up with us this Autumn. Aside from the usual site work and reporting, Paul and Andrew are busy writing presentations and digesting the recent updates to the SM2BAT to present some new ideas at a range of events this season.

This week Susan White is attending the Conference on Wind Energy and Wildlife Impacts in Trondheim, Norway. Day one covered EIAs and site selection, pre and post construction monitoring and fatality studies.

I have recently returned from the Chartered Institute of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) conference held in London which was billed "Hydropower in England and Wales: Addressing the Key Ecological Issues".
