Physical presence of<br />

Surface infrastructure<br />
will not be significantly<br />
modified as a result of<br />

development.<br />
Noise <strong>and</strong> vibration<br />
generated by operation<br />
of production processing<br />
equipment <strong>and</strong><br />
maintenance.<br />
Impacts associated with onshore disposal are<br />
dependent on the nature of the site or process.<br />
L<strong>and</strong>fills ‐ l<strong>and</strong> take, nuisance, emissions<br />
(methane), possible leachate, limitations on<br />
future l<strong>and</strong> use. Treatment plants ‐ nuisance,<br />
atmospheric emissions, potential for<br />
contamination of sites.<br />

shipping. Attraction of marine life to the<br />

Talisman has a Company<br />
Policy to minimise waste.<br />
Waste segregated by<br />
personnel at source &<br />
transferred ashore for<br />
disposal.<br />
Waste Management<br />
Procedure of reduce reuse<br />
recycle followed.<br />
Monthly reporting of<br />
waste sent to shore.<br />
500m exclusion zone<br />
around the Clyde platform<br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong><br />
drilling locations to<br />
mitigate against collision<br />
risk. The location will be<br />
marked on charts.<br />
Protective structures on<br />
pipeline, manifolds, SSIV<br />
etc. to prevent interaction<br />
with fishing gear.<br />
Operations will constitute<br />
a localised noise source.<br />
The source levels emitted<br />
will be below the sounds<br />
levels of concern for<br />
marine fauna.<br />
Minor<br />

<strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong><br />
development will<br />
not generate<br />
significant volumes<br />
of general waste.<br />
Loss of relatively<br />
small area of the<br />
seabed to other<br />
users of the sea.<br />
