Marine INNS Risk Assessment for Navigational Dredging and Disposal Activities

APEM Group supported Natural England with a comprehensive risk assessment of the dredging pathway, evaluating the risk of marine invasive non-native species (INNS) spread associated with navigational dredging and disposal activities. Drawing on our expertise in marine ecology services, invasive non-native species management, and environmental risk assessment, this project delivered the first detailed evidence base of its kind in the UK, helping to inform national guidance, strengthen marine biosecurity, and support sustainable dredging operations.
