As part of Defra’s revised approach, the preferred management tools are MMO byelaws within 6 to 12nm, and for the MMO to lead the management of sites that straddle the 6nm boundary. Following discussions between the MMO and Eastern IFCA, it has been agreed that, a MMO byelaw will be used to manage the Sabellaria spinulosa reef feature within the 0 to 12nm. Therefore an MMO byelaw for the part of the EMS between 0 and 12nm is the preferred option.
