Very, very unexciting this week.

Permanent

1. A couple of new UKHO charts over Holland way to be published in June. This is to do with the revision of the shipping lanes near the Dutch coast from August. Plus the chart of the Sunk Gyratory is to be republished at the same time.
2. A slight reduction of depth in the Thames oppsite Northfleet but nothing that will worry leisure users.

Temporary

1. Cable work in-field at the London Array again. Unusually, one work boat will claim a 900m exclusion zone around it but we don't know where that will be.
2. Removal of the Signal Horn in Saltpan Reach, Medway
3. Reinstatement of the lights on the ATL at Queenborough
4. Some dredging and dumping up at Ipswich.

And that is that. :p
 
The Sunk East buoy got moved out east around Christmas time but I guess the real changes are the Long Sand Head (and movement of the Black Deep PHB), of which there was a notice a few weeks back. I am afraid in the notice they only give what I have included so I have to rely on memory. Oh, and there is the Outer Gabbard Wind Farm block from a couple of weeks back to incorporate as well.
