We Are Not Alone on This Island Attachment F.1 Supplementary Information Nature Conservation Area Designation. Ireland, while a relatively small Island, is home to 28 species of land mammal, over 400 species of birds, more than 4,000 plant species, over 12,000 species of insect and a huge range of other living creatures. Kildare has a wide diversity of natural and semi-natural habitats such as bogs, wetlands, lakes, river and upland habitats that support a wide range of wild plant and animal species. However, our recent economic developments have put the sites in which these flora and fauna can be found under serious pressure. Declining farming incomes and the need to further intensify has further led to a reduction in “marginal Lands” which were once a haven for such species. In order to conserve the variety of birds, plant and animal species in Ireland it is necessary to conserve the habitats in which they live. Conservation areas are being designated in order to achieve this. Over 10% of land of Ireland is formally and legally designated as being of European importance for nature conservation. There are three main types of Conservation Site Designation: • Natural Heritage Area (NHA), • Special Area of Conservation (SAC) • Special Protection Area (SPA). Natural Heritage Areas Natural Heritage Areas are the primary National designation. In 1981 An Foras Forbaithe identified 27 ASI (Areas of Scientific Interest) in Kildare as part of a national inventory to identify Forspecial inspection purposesor typical only. landscape/geological features, Consent of copyright owner required for any other use. habitats, plant/animal species and communities. The areas of ecological interest were resurveyed (1991-1994) and designated NHA. The Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) is compiling a list of geological sites in need of protection through NHA designation. Under the Wildlife Amendment Act (2000), NHA’s are legally protected from damage from the date they are formally proposed. Previous to this the County Development Plans were the primary protection mechanism for NHA's. Kildare has 23 NHA’s (see list below). The process of formal designation of NHAs will began in 2002. NHAs are designated by the Minister without reference to Europe.

The legal basis on which SAC’s are selected and designated in the “Habitats Directive” (92/43/EEC). The Directive was transposed into Irish legislation by the European Union (Natural Habitats) Regulations. In 1997 some NHA's were designated as SAC's. SAC designation gives protection to certain habitats and species. This included priority habitats, which require particular attention. There are currently 7 SAC's designated in Co. Kildare (see list below). Once a site is designated a SAC and publicly advertised it is legally protected. Once designated the site becomes a proposed candidate SAC (pcSAC). Following the three month period during which time landowners may lodge objections to the proposal to designate a site, details of each proposed SAC are transmitted to the EU Commission, after which For inspection purposes only. time it is called a “candidateConsent SAC”. of copyright Once owner approved required for any by other the use. commission, the sites will be formally designated by the Minister. Four of the five sites are candidate SAC and one is a proposed candidate SAC. Certain activities are restricted within SAC’s and can only be carried out with the permission of the Minister for Environment and Local Government. These are called “Notifiable Actions” and vary depending on the type of habitat that is present on the site. When a site is designated landowners are sent copies of notifiable actions that are relevant to their lands.

Developments likely to cause significant damage to the wildlife importance of a designated site must not be allowed. National Parks and Wildlife Service may suggest alternative approaches or will recommend a planning application be rejected. SAC’s do not automatically prohibit development. Developments not causing significant harm to the conservation interest of a site may be permitted. SAC’s and SPA’s collectively form part of “Natura 2000”, a network of protected areas throughout the EU. Sites, which receive designation, will receive the protection they deserve. However, it is not simply enough to leave nature conservation in Kildare to these sites. Equally important habitats for bird, plant and animal species throughout the wider countryside are woodlands, ancient hedgerows, lakes and fens.

  • Chapter 3 - Settlement Strategy
    Wicklow County Development Plan 2016‐2022 CHAPTER 3 - SETTLEMENT STRATEGY 3.1 Introduction This chapter sets out the Settlement Strategy for County Wicklow. The Settlement Strategy is in accordance with the Strategic Policy Context and Core Strategy, as outlined in Chapters 1 and 2. It sets out the strategy for the future development of settlements and the rural area. In particular it sets out the role and function of each level within the Settlement Hierarchy and includes information on the growth targets and occupancy controls within each level. A visual representation of the settlement hierarchy is shown on maps 03.01, 03.02 and 03.03. 3.2 County Wicklow Settlement Strategy LEVEL 1 – METROPOLITAN CONSOLIDATION TOWN Settlement: Bray Population and Growth Target The population of the settlement is targeted to increase from 29,339 in 2011 to 40,000 in 2028. Role and Function Bray is the largest town in County Wicklow located in a strategically important position within the metropolitan area and at the eastern gateway to the County. The town has the best transport links in the County, with access to the N/M11 transportation corridor (including M50), DART/ rail line and quality bus service. It is a strong active town that provides a higher order economic and social function for its local residents and for residents from other surrounding towns and villages. Further expansion of the town is severely constrained on all sides by the administrative boundary of Dun Laoghaire Rathdown and the coast to the north and east, Bray Head / Sugarloaf mountains to the south and the N/M11 to the west.
