Marine Scotland’s online application hub entry for “Scoping and HRA Screening - CampionWind Offshore Wind Farm Array Area approximately 93 km southeast of Aberdeenshire coastline – SCOP-0070” records that an “HRA Screening Opinion – CampionWind Offshore Wind Farm Array Area – August 2025” was submitted in the pre-application stage on 29 August 2025. The listing classifies the application type as “Renewables - Wind” and associates it with the CampionWind Offshore Wind Farm project, for which Campion Wind Ltd is named as the applicant. This pre-application document appears alongside other scoping and screening materials for the array area under the same SCOP-0070 reference. Within the Marine Scotland Licensing Operations Team (MS-LOT) section of the page, the HRA Screening Opinion is clearly identified in a tabular list of “MS-LOT Associated application docs,” which details the stage at which each document was submitted, its application type, and the precise submission date. For the HRA Screening Opinion, the table shows the stage as “Pre-application,” the application type as “Renewables - Wind,” and the date submitted as 2025-08-29. This confirms that by late August 2025 Marine Scotland held and recorded an HRA Screening Opinion specifically for the CampionWind Offshore Wind Farm array area, forming part of the project’s early regulatory documentation under the SCOP-0070 case. The page also notes related scoping and HRA screening reports and opinions from April, June, and July 2025, situating the 29 August 2025 HRA Screening Opinion within a sequence of pre-application environmental and screening submissions for the CampionWind project.
