Schedule B The area known as Lawn Bay Ecologi cal Reserve is established as an ecological reserve primarily to protect the internationally significant seabird breeding colony of the Manx Shearwater ( Puffinus puffinus ) and its habitat. In addition to Manx Shearwater, the Reserve also pro- tects breeding habitat for eight other seabird species. Scientific research at the site will be encouraged a nd educational use and commercial and non-commercial use may be permitted where it does not conflict with the general objective of site protection and scientific research.

To limit disturbances to seabirds during the breeding season and minimize habi- tat erosion year-round, access to Middl e Lawn Island is by special per- mit only. Restrictions on access to the Swale and Colombier Islands and the surrounding marine zone shall be in place throughout the breed- ing season.
