Permanent
1. New charts out on 11th April - chart 108 Approaches to the Wash and Chart 128 Netherlands and Belgium, Westerschelde.
2, 3 and 4 A River Thames week with notification of reduced depths in three places, none of which should trouble leisure craft.
Temporary
1. In-field cable work on the London Array.
2. Notification of this year's closure programme of the Thames Barrier.
3. Work on Benfleet, Eastgates and Fobbing Barriers which will produce some closures.
4. Work on the Purfleet Ro-Ro berths
5. Harwich Shelf East Cardinal Buoy will go back on station on or after 5th March - so may be there now.
6. Work on the Wallesea Jetty on the Crouch with associated barge and workboat traffic for 12 weeks.
7. Siltation (which is presumably Suffolk for 'silting') within Lowestoft Harbour has occurred during the winter but no details are given. The implication is that it will only affect commercial craft as masters of deep draught vessels are asked to contact the Harbour Authorities. A dredging plan is being put into action.
That's it.
