3. 2 Bathymetry

The bathymetry files were created by digitizing contours and spot depths from Admiralty Chart No. 3284-0 and the data limited to a 1 km2 model domain with the following grid limits:

DataAreaXMin= 446790

DataAreaXMax= 447790

DataAreaYM i n= 1161800

DataAreaYMax= 1162800

An assessment of the suitability of the Admiralty bathymetric data was performed using depthsobtained from 10 soundings that were collected from the vicinity of the proposal during the August2016 hydrographic survey.

Admiralty chart data were gridded in Surfer ( v8. 09, Golden Software) with depths extracted for the10 soundings using Surfer' s ' Grid -Slice' tool (applied to Swarta Skerry 2018.grd, using Swarta Skerryspot depths. bin). The differences between observed and charted depths for the soundings were

calculated and tested for linear correlation ( Pearson' s product moment correlation coefficient).

Medium linear correlation was present ( r= 0.49, n= 10) with observed depths on average 3. 2 m

deeper than the predicted charted depth. Nearly all soundings collected to the eastern side of thesite were deeper than predicted.

As a result of this assessment Admiralty bathymetric data were supplemented with these additionalsoundings as well as data collected during a bathymetry survey (March 2016) conducted using aValeport MIDAS Surveyor dual frequency echosounder mounted over the side of an SSF workboat.

Although this survey was originally for the existing Loura Voe fish farm, coverage is sufficient torepresent the southern part of the Swarta Skerry modelling grid. Data were processed to correct fortidal height and to remove anomalous values. As the system collects data at a rate of 6 soundings

every second, 1 in every 50 points was extracted to incorporate into the bathymetry csv file. Acomparison with the chart extract is presented at Appendix 3 with the raw and processed data

included on the application CD.

3. 3 Cage set- up

The cages consist of two groups of six 100m circumference cages fitted with 15m nets & arranged

2x6 in two adjacent 70m mooring grids. The cage configuration is illustrated in Figure 2.

3. 3 Current data

The current meter data was collected by SSF in August 2016 and reported in March 2018. The data

have been reviewed by SEPA and are considered suitable for use in modelling ( A. Berkeley, personalcommunication, 27 January 2017 13: 57). Data was collected using a 600 kHz RDI Workhorse ADCP

with a 15 -day subset selected for statistical analysis from 2 to 18 August 2016 using bins from depthsthat represented the near -surface ( 35. 3 m from seabed), cage bottom ( 26. 9 m), and near -seabed

2. 9 m). Summaries of the derived statistical data are presented at Appendix 1.

The SEPA hydrographic Excel tool temp- 20min- HGO. As was used to produce hourly averaged datasets for use in AutoDepomod v2 ( input parameters are given in Table 4). All bearings were pre -

corrected to Grid North. The data were related to the spring/ neap tidal cycle using Admiralty TideTables and the pressure record. The intermediate Spring tide (SNS) and Neap tide ( NSN) wereidentified as occurring at hours 322 and 142 respectively (equivalent to the 16 August 2016 and 8August 2016).

Mean Sea Level ( defined as the average of MHWS, MHWN, MLWS and MLWN) for Dury Voe was

derived from Admiralty Total Tide software.

The current velocities at the site are weak and indicate the potential for wind influence. Observed

speeds are greatest at the seabed. Transport in the near -surface layer is consistently to the southeast while at the deeper layers shows a residual flow to the west- southwest.

3. 4 Model

Default values were used as described in SEPA guidelines Regulation and Monitoring of Marine Cage

Fish Farming in Scotland. Annex H, Methods for Modelling In feed Anti -parasitics and Benthic Effectsissue No. 2. 3, 18 May 2005).

Initial runs were carried out using a constant feed input, auto -distribute enabled and 10 particles. Asthe proposal intends to consolidate and replace the two existing sites at Loura Voe and Grunna Voe

an initial stocking density of 13. 88 kg/ ma was used to represent 1, 990 tonnes. This is the combinedlicenced biomass at these sites.

4. Results

4. 1 Maximum Biomass

The initial runs at 1, 990 tonnes passed the EQS criteria with an ITI of 10. 3 and 10. 2 for the neap and

spring scenarios respectively. Table 5 shows the flux, ITI and area results for the spring scenario ( run2; worst case with respect to ITI score) while a plot of the flux contours and deposition footprint is

presented at Figure 3. A full summary of the results is presented in the marine summaryspreadsheet at Appendix 2. The shape and size of the depositional footprint is consistent with the

local bathymetry and the dispersive properties of the location.

4. 2 Bath Treatments

4. 2. 1 Input data

The SEPA tool BothAuto_ v5. xls was used to determine the recommended quantities of bath

treatments at Swarta Skerry. The input parameters are given in Table 4 below. Loch area and lengthparameters for Dury Voe were taken from Locational Guidelines for the Authorisation of Marine FishFarms in Scottish Waters December 2017 issued by Marine Scotland Science. The distance to theshoreline was measured from the proposed site centre to Muckle Ness, while the head of the system

Page 17

was defined to be the 0 m contour at where Laxo Burn meets Dury Voe to the NW. The averagewater depth was determined using the AutoDepomod model grid and Surfer' s ' Grid -Volume' tool. The hydrographic input data were taken from Sworta Skerry( LVN02)_ NS HGdata analysis v7.xls.

4. 3 Infeed Treatments ( Emamectin Benzoate)

4. 3. 1 Model Set- up

The model was setup using the method described in SSF' s generic method report Bath and In -FeedMethod Statement and follows the guidelines and model defaults described in SERA guidelines

Regulation and Monitoring ofMarine Cage Fish Farming in Scotland Annex H, Methods forModelling In feed Anti -parasitics and Benthic Effects ( issue No. 2. 3, 18 May 2005) unless statedotherwise below.

Using AutoDepomod, the Slice run parameters were initially set to 5 times maximum biomass ( 9, 950t) using an annual feed load of 5, 088 t and 10 particles.

Page 19

4. 3. 2 Results

Initially modelling for Slice passes the assessment criteria with deposition at the far -field EQSstandard at 183, 026 m' ( Run 1). This is below the far -field AZE ( 194, 880 ml). As there are two cage

groups at Swarta Skerry, AutoDepomod will calculate the far -field AZE area for each group leading tothis being overestimated where the two areas overlap. Therefore, the overlap has been calculatedand accounted for in the result above.

In October 2017 SEPA released their interim position for Emamectin Benzoate ( WAT- PS- 17- 03 v1. 1)

whereby the TAQ would be restricted to 40% of that determined through modelling, or the

equivalent of two treatments at peak biomass. At Swarta Skerry this results in a recommended TotalAllowable Quantity ( TAQ) 1, 393 g for an equivalent treatable biomass of 3, 980 t (Run 2).

The Maximum Treatment Quantity is 696. 5 g which is sufficient to treat the proposed maximumbiomass of 1, 990 t. This would result in a mean concentration of 113. 1 pg kg-' wet weight sedimentwithin the near -field AZE, which exceeds the EQS trigger value. Deposition following a singletreatment at maximum biomass ( MTQ) is illustrated in Figure 7.

0. 763

ug/ kgsediment

The mass balance for the passing run using the TAQ is 929 g, this is the mass of Emamectin Benzoatewhich is left in the model grid at the end of the run. In order to calculate the amount of medicine

lost from the model due to export the following equation is used:

Page ) 10

Mlost- s = ( Mstart x 0. 74) - Mena

1393 x 0. 74) - 929

101. 8 g

Therefore around 7. 3 % of the medicine released is exported from the model grid. This is consistent

with the relatively low current speeds found at this site. The model shows that the majority of theSlice residue is retained within the model grid.

Using the SEPA tool Marine sum. v3. 2.xls this exported mass would require an area of 1. 1 km= to bedispersed to the far -field EQS standard, which is smaller than the available receiving area. Thelocation would be classified as restricted with headwards transport which means that the available

receiving area should be defined as half of the seabed area headwards of the site. This has beencalculated as 1. 32 kmZ at Dury Voe. Therefore the TAQ is considered to be compliant with the fateassessment criteria.

5. Discussion

The footprint of deposition predicted by the model is consistent with the bathymetry and currentdata recorded at this site. This is also reflected by the low level of export which means that material

is almost completely retained within the model grid.

Through consolidation of the existing fish farms at Loura Voe and Grunna Voe the proposed site atSwarta Skerry would be licenced to use a quantity of Emamectin Benzoate which represents 40 % ofthe total already licenced at these existing sites combined, leading to an overall reduction of theinfeed treatment into the voe. For the bath treatments Excis and Alphamax recommended consent

limits are 47 % of that licenced at the two existing sites. For Salmosan the dispersive properties ofthe near -surface currents and increased distance from the shoreline would permit a greater quantityof this treatment to be used, 1. 5 times the combined total licenced at the existing sites.

6. Conclusion

The recommended maximum biomass for Swarta Skerry is 1, 990 tonnes at a stocking density of13.88 kg/ m'.

The model output is representative of a site with low dispersive qualities with a deposition footprint

consistent with the relatively weak vector averaged residual current and uniform bathymetry of thesite.

The recommended treatment consent limits are:

Azamethiphos; 3 -hour recommended consent limit of 142.0 g and a 24-hour limit of 424.9 g. This

quantity is sufficient to treat one whole cage with a treatment depth of 1. 78 m in 3 -hours and 3cages every 24 -hours. Treatment of the whole site would take four days.

Page 111

Cypermethrin; 3 -hour recommended consent limit of 25. 7 g which is sufficient to treat a volume of5, 139 m'.

Deltamethrin - 3 -hour recommended consent limit of 9. 64 g which is sufficient to treat a volume of4,818 m'.

Emamectin Benzoate - recommended MTQ of 696. 5 g and a TAQ of 1, 393 g. The TAQ is sufficient toa treatable biomass of 3, 980 t and is determined through application of the SEPA interim policy

WAT- PS- 17- 03, limiting the TAQ to 40% of that determined through modelling.
