- To safeguard the ecological health of the Severn Estuary and its river catchments.
- Uphold the requirement for EDF to install the AFD as originally agreed.
- Ensure there is proper mitigation and compensation, regardless of whether the AFD is installed.
- Ensure that compensation measures are comprehensive and address all affected species, with a specific focus on migratory fish, removing river barriers and restoring
- habitats.
- Press for the inclusion of the Bristol Avon in compensation plans, given its importance to migratory fish.
