Nothing much from the Admiralty this week - some minor depth changes in the Thames that will not affect us. On the Temporary Notices though one or two things to note.

Great Yarmouth - work on the harbour entrance to carry on until the end of the year. Requirement to call Yarmouth Radio before entering/passing plus an offlying Wave Rider buoy to be left well clear.

East Swale - Start of the preparations for the Cable laying to the London Array. Cantata encountered unlit barges in the night on Saturday. Lots of work there for 10 weeks linking up of course with the cable laying out to the Array which at some stage will close Fisherman's Gat. No further information on that but I'm trying!

Foulger's Gat - I have updated the pylon installation chart. The monopile close to Foulger's is in now and they plan to work a little further away. Note that there is a lot of survey and grapnel work going on along the route of the cable laying so 'expect anything'. The Wind Farm weekly notification is probably worth reading.

Harwich - some usually dredging within the harbour.

All these four are in the Temporary Notices list at:
