Division 7.12.1
United Kingdom
There is a possibility that that the maintained or restore condition of the Sabellaria spinulosa reef features and habitat may increase the attraction for recreational users, including divers and anglers (S.E.Rees et al, 2013f1; D.R. Chae et al, 2012f2). This could also increase tourism to the area and therefore increase spending in local businesses (S.E.Rees et al, 2013).
