CAMEL FISH LTD (and Dr Angela Mead) HAVE LODGED AN APPEAL AGAINST THEIR APPLICATION REFUSAL

The appeal is with the Planning Inspectorate, and the public have until 12th December 2025 to submit any representations.

This can be done by emailing the case officer on:

matthew.meredith@planninginspectorate.gov.uk

and cc'ing

ETC@planninginspectorate.gov.uk


The 'appellants' are Camel Fish Ltd and the case number is APP/ML/25/04.

You must include the above details in any correspondence.

The Planning Inspectorate will NOT acknowledge receipt of your email or letter.


This 230 page document has been written by Dr Angela Mead, still (somehow) of BIOME ALGAE LTD, now, remarkably, employed at CODY BLUE SOLUTIONS - look 'em up!


We are working through the document now, but you can read and download it yourselves below. Available to download below is the MMO Decision Report (rejection) from April this year, the Public Submission from the November 2024 consultation and the MMO appeal notice.


If you wish to send a representation by post, the address is:


Matthew Meredith

The Planning Inspectorate

Temple Quay House

2 The Square

Bristol

BS1 6PN


***IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE ALL MAKE OUR VOICES HEARD***


FACTS:

  1. The appeal is that the MMO didn't give the applicant the chance to explain themselves (basically!)
  2. We know, to our great cost, that the MMO gave both applicants an extraordinary amount of (plastic) rope during the application process (Julyish 2023-Nov 2024)
  3. Your original objections still stand, and you should refer to them in any submissions
  4. Regardless of recent changes, pressures such as wave climate, wildlife disturbance and entanglement, puffins, seabed (critical habitat) loss, visual impact (AONB), still apply.
  5. Social License to Operate (SLO), which is community approval, has not been sought or granted.


GO AHEAD AND SEND AN EMAIL IN, OR YOU CAN WAIT TO HEAR MORE FROM US


Email the case officer on:

Save Our Bays is a Community Interest Company which supports coastal communities and the marine and coastal environment. Through information sharing and engagement with community groups, schools and individuals, we are committed to the conservation and protection of our precious nearshore and coastal habitats.


Through lobbying, press engagement and collaboration with other marine advocates, we help to raise awareness of threats to coastal areas, and support campaigns to preserve marine ecosystems.


Whilst the ‘Blue Economy’, in the form of seaweed aquaculture and other mariculture installations, carbon capture ventures, Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement, desalination and biotechnology, are very possibly the beginnings of a solution to mitigate the impacts of climate change, these projects need to be handled carefully, with coastal communities, small boat fisheries and the environment at the forefront of proposals.. 


From the outset, before a marine licence is applied for, it is crucial that developers seek Social License to Operate. 


We strongly suggest that emerging mariculture and coastal development companies call on the mix of skills, expertise, generosity and commitment to the conservation of marine habitats available within coastal communities, to boost their licence applications and to give their businesses the strongest start.



“We have the choice to use the gift of our life to make the world a better place–or not to bother.” Jane Goodall
