Seal Scrammers secured with buoys
The seal scrammer acoustic device emits very high intensity sounds that can be heard for many kilometres under water. This noise makes the vicinity uncomfortable for marine mammals and causes them to vacate the area. Nord Stream developed a plan for the removal of munitions to ensure that the pipeline is safe and the effects on the Baltic Sea environment and on marine life are minimal. In this endeavour, the company benefits from the experience of the navies of the Baltic Sea countries, which conduct mine clearing missions in cooperation with The Partnership for Peace, a programme between partner countries and NATO. Through their efforts, over 1,000 mines have been cleared since 1996.
