Tern lagoon islands refurbishment

The Tata Steel site at Shotton is home to the largest colony of Common Terns (a
protected species) in Wales. They nest on islands within a SSSI (site of special
scientific interest) area of the works, and feed on the River Dee. The islands are
less then 100m from the industrial activity. The colony is managed by The Merseyside
Ringing Group (MRG), and started with simple rafts on the lagoons in 1970. Between
20-25 year ago 3 islands were constructed with membrane and stone, and mesh sides
applied to deter foxes. Tata has provided ongoing support to the MRG for the last
50 years, in the form of SSSI management, routine pest control, monitoring and vegetation
management. Over time the islands have degraded to a point where the colony is starting
to suffer. MRG, in association with Natural Resources Wales, have been able to secure
a Welsh Government Conservation Grant (£28k) to pay for putting a new membrane and
stones (120T) onto the islands to refurbish them. Tata is supporting this conservation
project through volunteering labour and management time, plus material costs.
