Marine Licence Applications received by DAERA, from 2011 to present, under Marine and Coastal Access Act

Marine Consents

Abstract

The Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 provides for a marine licensing system across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland’s offshore region. In Northern Ireland, it applies to all our marine waters from the mean high water spring tide mark out to 12 nautical miles (the inshore region). This includes the waters of any sea lough, estuary, or river, so far as the tide flows at mean high water spring tide. DAERA Marine and Fisheries Division is responsible for licensing various activities such as construction works, deposits in the sea, removal of objects or aggregates from the seabed, dredging from the seabed, or use of explosives and incineration. This spatial layer show all the marine licence applications received to carry out a licensable activity under Part 4 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009, from 2011 to the present.

Quality and validity

Lineage

Data was collected from a variety of sources including plotting coordinates provided on application forms, scanning and georectifying paper map and shapefiles provided by applicants. Line and point data was buffered by 5 metres in order to polygonise all features so that they could be provided as a single layer.
