People in Guernsey are being asked to share their views on how the island’s surrounding waters should be used.
The survey will help Environment & Infrastructure create a new Marine Spatial Plan.
Questions are on topics including fishing, shipping, renewable energy, community use, and protecting nature.
The plan will cover almost seven hundred square miles of sea around Guernsey and Herm.
The survey is open on the government website until mid-June.
Environment & Infrastructure Vice-President, Deputy Sally Rochester, hopes there will be good engagement.
"Our seas play a huge role in our quality of life and in the economic success of our islands.
"We also know that protecting and regenerating our marine habitats is critical for future generations of islanders.
“We are working on a marine spatial plan to balance these important factors and want to hear from the community as we shape that plan.
We are asking you to share your views through this survey to ensure that the needs of our community are balanced against other users of our waters such as boaters, fishers and developers.
“Our territorial waters represent an incredible opportunity and untapped potential which, with our community’s input, can benefit our community both now and for years to come.
"So please do take the time to share your views with us in the coming weeks.”
