Marine Scotland’s online application hub for the Muir Mhòr Offshore Wind Farm records that an item titled “Environmental Impact Assessment Report – Further Additional Information – Muir Mhor Offshore Wind Farm – 00011025/00011026” was submitted on 14 January 2026. This entry appears under the project’s applications and supporting documentation, alongside other submissions for marine licences and Section 36 consent, and is explicitly flagged as an application-stage document for the renewables – wind project. The presence of a specific submission date indicates that this Further Additional Information to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report was formally lodged with the authority on that day. Earlier in the documentation list for the same project, Marine Scotland notes the original “Environmental Impact Assessment Report – Muir Mhor Offshore Wind Farm” as having been submitted on 5 December 2024, together with marine licence applications for construction and operation of the generating station (00011025), transmission works (00011026), and the Section 36 consent application. The January 2026 entry therefore represents a subsequent regulatory step in which the developer has provided expanded or updated environmental information to support the ongoing determination of the marine licence applications. This further EIA submission suggests that Marine Scotland and consultees required or received additional detail beyond the original 2024 EIA report as part of the pre-application and assessment process for Muir Mhòr.
