Chapter 4: Biodiversity
EIAR Kilcumber Bridge 110kV substation Chapter 4: Biodiversity 4 BIODIVERSITY 4.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the ecology in the environs of the proposed substation site and grid connection route and assesses the potential effects of the project on identified ecological receptors. A detailed description of the project assessed in this chapter is given in Chapter 2 Project Description. A Natura 2000 Appropriate Assessment Natura Impact Statement (NIS) report has also been prepared and completed for the project. This Ecological Impact Assessment was carried out with regard to the following publications: • Guidelines on the Information to be Contained in Environmental Impact Assessment Reports (EPA, 2017); • Guidelines for Ecological Impact Assessment in the UK and Ireland - Terrestrial, Freshwater, Coastal and Marine (IEEM, 2019); • Guidelines for Assessment of Ecological Impacts of National Road Schemes (NRA, 2009). 4.1.1 Legislation and Policy Context The most important legislation underpinning biodiversity and nature conservation in Ireland are the: • Wildlife Acts 1976 to 2012; • European Communities (Birds and Natural Habitats) Regulations 2011-2015 (transposes EU Birds Directive 2009/147/EC and EU Habitats Directive 2009/147/EC, 92/43/EC); • European Communities (Quality of Salmonid Waters) regulations (S.I. No. 84 of 1988); • Freshwater Fish (78/659/EEC) The Wildlife Act, 1976, is the principal national legislation providing for the protection of wildlife and the control of some activities that may adversely affect wildlife. The aims of the Wildlife Act, 1976, are to provide for the protection and conservation of wild fauna and flora, to conserve a representative sample of important ecosystems, to provide for the development and protection of game resources and to regulate their exploitation, and to provide the services necessary to accomplish such aims.
