APPENDIX 2: LEGISLATION SUMMARY 18 SUMMARY Hopkins Ecology Ltd was appointed by Code DP on behalf of Priscilla Bacon Norfolk Hospice Care Limited to prepare an ecological appraisal of a plot of Land South-east of Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (NNUH), off Colney Lane, for a proposed 24 bed end of life hospice with associated offices and car parking. The Site lies south of the internal boundary road of the NNUH, with an access route off this and through a young plantation, then cutting into an adjacent field where the main development Site extends to ~2.8ha. This report covers the proposed re-located site for the hospice, the boundaries of which are roughly 170m north-east of the location surveyed and assessed by Hopkins Ecology Ltd in 2018. As well as a Phase 1 habitat survey and species scoping, the assessment is further informed by a data search and survey work for the adjacent ‘Newfound Farm’ residential scheme, where an extensive suite of surveys were undertaken in 2010. The on-Site habitats comprise a deciduous plantation dating from the 1990s, with access proposed through this. The main area is arable cropland, with a verge of improved grass sward separating this form the plantation. A defunct hedgerow runs along the north boundary. No habitats of principal importance are present, with the hedgerow considered to have too little woody vegetation to qualify. Great crested newts are scoped out on the basis that there are no ponds within 250m. There is a record of a small badger sett from the west of the Site, but no evidence of current presence of this species was found in the plantation or other nearby areas. None of the trees have roost potential, but the plantation edge may be used by commuting bats. Other species of conservation concern potentially present include nesting birds, hedgehogs and widespread but declining invertebrates. These are likely to be present as components of larger local populations and are of value at the local scale only. No additional surveys are currently recommended. However, if lighting and development impacts on the woodland and plantation edges cannot be avoided then bat surveys are recommended to assess the importance of these areas for bats. Scheme design should consequently aim to minimise impacts on the woodland and plantation edges. The site is within a sub-regional green infrastructure corridor and this provides a strategic context for enhancement measures, such as soft landscaping and other measures including bird boxes, retention of felled timber on-Site and ensuring that hedgehogs have access through the completed scheme. Clearance of vegetation should be outside of the nesting bird season. Page | 1 Land South-east of NNUH of Colney Lane, Norfolk: Preliminary Ecological Appraisal 2019 1. INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND 1.1 Hopkins Ecology Ltd was appointed by Code DP on behalf of Priscilla Bacon Norfolk Hospice Care Limited to prepare an ecological appraisal of a plot of Land south-east of Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (NNUH), off Colney Lane, for a proposed 24 bed end of life hospice with associated offices and car parking. The Site lies south of the internal boundary road of the NNUH, with an access route off this and through a young plantation, then cutting into an adjacent field where the main development Site extends to ~2.8ha. 1.2 This report covers the proposed re-located site for the hospice, the boundaries of which are roughly 170m north-east of the location surveyed and assessed by Hopkins Ecology Ltd in 2018. SITE CONTEXT 1.3 The Site is within the Mid Norfolk Natural Character Area1, which is characterised as an: “ancient countryside with a long settled agricultural character, where arable land is enclosed by winding lanes and hedgerows, interspersed by woodland and heath and dissected by lush pastoral river valleys”. LEGISLATION AND PLANNING POLICY 1.4 The following key pieces of nature conservation legislation are relevant to legally protected species (with a more detailed description in Appendix 2): • The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (the Habitats Regulations); and • The Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981 (as amended). 1.5 Also, the National Planning Policy Framework (MHCLG, 20192) requires local authorities to avoid and minimise impacts on biodiversity and, where possible, to provide net gains in biodiversity when making planning decisions. A substantial number of habitats and species are of conservation concern in the UK. A small number of these species are fully protected under the legislation listed above, but others in England are recognised as Habitats / Species of Principal Importance under the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006 and reinforced by the National Planning Policy Framework. For these habitats / species local planning authorities are required to promote the “protection and recovery” via planning and development control. Examples include hedgerows, and species such as the widespread reptiles, house sparrows and soprano pipistrelle and noctule bats. 1.6 Although the NPPF has an overarching aim of minimising impacts to biodiversity, the majority of species of conservation concern are not specifically recognised by legislation or planning policy. The level of protection afforded to these is undefined and should be considered within the overall aim of minimising impacts on biodiversity. 1 Natural England (2014) NCA Profile 84: Mid Norfolk.

METHODS PERSONNEL 2.1 This ecological assessment was prepared by Dr Graham Hopkins CEnv MCIEEM FRES, who holds full survey licences for great crested newts and bats. He has over 15 years of consultancy experience in East Anglia. DATA SEARCH 2.2 At the desk study comprised a formal data search from the local records centre commissioned in 2015 and a review of relevant data from and information from other sources (Table 1). The location of designated sites and other relevant features was verified with reference to the survey reports accompanying unrelated schemes. Table 1. Overview of desk study data sources.

The description of habitats was based on the methods of JNCC (2010)8 and trees were surveyed from ground level for their potential suitability for roosting bats, looking for gaps, cracks and other voids9; searches were also made for signs of badgers. 2.5 Hedgerows were surveyed according to the guidance of DEFRA (2007)10, recording woody species within a 30m section and associated features such as banks, ditches and ground flora (see constraints). These are used to determine Important Hedgerows according to the Hedgerow Regulations as described in the text (‘Evaluation’), but also see ‘Constraints’ below. 2.6 The local presence of ponds (to a radius of 250m) was determined from OS maps and Google Earth and previous survey reports. GUIDANCE 2.7 The ecological assessment has been prepared with reference to best practice guidance published by the Chartered Institute for Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) and as detailed in British Standard 42020:2013 Biodiversity - Code of Practice for Biodiversity and Development.

There are a few gravel-pits, abandoned and overgrown apart from one just to the east of the north/south bisecting road. The common was grazed until the early 70's (G. Beckett), but is now dominated by Gorse and Bracken, with incipient scrub, including some healthy- looking young Oaks. Along the border with Gas Plantation to the south there is not surprisingly an intermediate sparsely timbered zone. The Society’s visit co-incided with one of the driest periods in recent years, so that many of the smaller plants especially were very dried up, if not dead. However, there had been no recent fires. Fortunately, the vascular plants and bryophytes had been surveyed within the last three years by other individuals and organisations, who have kindly made their records available. Invertebrate animals were well represented and there were some dozen species of birds seen or heard. A total of 12 spider sp. were recorded by Rex Haney, and 3 others by Reg and Lil Evans, who were principally concerned with Fungi.

    GREATER NORWICH DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP TECHNICAL CONSULTATION FULL REPORT (Final draft) Prepared for Greater Norwich Development Partnership Thorpe Lodge, Yarmouth Road Thorpe St Andrew Norwich NR7 0DU Prepared by: Michael Mackman BA (Hons), MMRS, FCIM, Chartered Marketer 14 November 2008 Greater Norwich Development Partnership – Joint Core Strategy Consultation P08872 14 November 2008 Page 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Obviously, the evaluation of the comments on the GNDP Regulation 25 consultation is a matter for the Partnership. However, it may be helpful to draw out some common and recurring themes. There are many expressions of concern about the effects of further development on key local infrastructure. These include (but are not exclusively) water and sewerage, health services, transportation/ roads, community facilities and infrastructure, education, policing and the environment (including impacts on SSSIs, nature reserves and green spaces). Many respondents express views to the effect that local resources are at capacity or above, and that further development must bring with it benefits to support new populations, wherever housed. There are particular concerns in some rural communities, although some also welcome controlled development as a means of assuring or enhancing local services, and request a higher development “status” or the development of specific sites. Others are concerned about “knock on” effects on local infrastructure, including roads, local schools and so on. This is coupled with concerns about sustainability, the desirability of “green infrastructure” and about ensuring that new development has the minimum carbon footprint. There are also suggestions about measures to improve the carbon footprint of existing developments, for example, through renewables technology. Unsurprisingly, these concerns are balanced by suggestions from agents, landowners, developers and businesses suggesting the desirability of additional development, or the development of specific sites.

  • The Norfolk Natterjack of the NNNS
    A $. 2U- BRITISH MUSEUM (NATURAL HISTORY) 2 1 MAY 1991 EXCHANGED RAL LIBRARY NORFOLK Number 33 May 1991 NATTERJACK The quarterly bulletin of the Norfolk & Norwich Naturalists’ Society CHANCE MEETING IN RHODES This year I visited Rhodes in the second half of March to look at the flowers. The date may sound early to many people but this is the eastern end of the Mediterranean and flowering is a week or two in advance of places not much further west, such as Crete. For example, the pyramidal orchid, Anacamptos pyramidalis, was in full bloom, whereas in Crete, in my experience, it would not reach that stage until about the second week in April, while in Majorca flowering would not occur before the end of that month. What can be said of Rhodes as a place to seek flowers ? Certainly in the vicinity of Rhodes town the effects of tourism are all too apparent. Nevertheless, a few miles to the south, and the island is over sixty miles in length, there is an appreciable amount of country worthy of exploration and, unlike many other places, organised parties were not in evidence. During my first week 1 never saw anyone who looked remotely interested in flowers. In the second week I made two contacts with enthusiasts. The first encounter was near the summit of the mountain, Profitis Elias. It is tree-covered and as I approached the top I noted a parked car and, not far away, a couple who were obviously interested in the flowers. I walked across to meet them.

    Water Management Alliance (Eastern) Norfolk Rivers Drainage Board BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN April 2018 NORFOLK RIVERS IDB – BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN Front cover images (L-R) ; Himalayan Basalm; Barn Owl; White Clawed Crayfish; Otter; River Nar; IDB Digger 2 FOREWORD This Biodiversity Action Plan (Second Edition) has been prepared by the Norfolk Rivers Internal Drainage Board, in accordance with the commitment to the Implementation Plan of the DEFRA Internal Drainage Board Review, requiring IDBs to produce their own Biodiversity Action Plans by April 2010. As such, the original version was published in January 2010. This revised version aims to continue to align the Norfolk Rivers IDB with biodiversity policy and more specifically, the Biodiversity document for England, “Biodiversity 2020: A strategy for Englands’ Wildlife and Ecosystem Services” and build on the Government’s 25 Year Environmental Plan; A Green Future. In doing so, the document strives to demonstrate the Board’s commitment to fulfilling its duty as a public body under the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006, to conserve biodiversity. Many of the Board’s activities have benefits and opportunities for biodiversity, not least its water level management and watercourse maintenance work. It is hoped that this Biodiversity Action Plan will help the Board to maximise the biodiversity benefits from its activities and demonstrate its contribution to the targets as part of the Biodiversity 2020 strategy and achieve wider environmental improvement within its catchments. The Board has adopted the Biodiversity Action Plan as one of its policies and subject to available resources is committed to its implementation. It will review the plan periodically and update it as appropriate.

  • City of Norwich Replacement Local Plan 2014
    City of Norwich Replacement Local Plan Adopted Version, November 2004 FOREWORD The City of Norwich prides itself on its environment and character as well as its continuing economic growth and importance as the capital of the Eastern Region. This Plan has been developed in a period of rapid upheaval and economic change, which is having significant effects across the City and on the context in which the Plan must be developed. Norwich has emerged from this period of change with better prospects for its future development and this Plan is part of our approach to achieving that and continuing to gain maximum benefit from the changes proposed. This Local Plan replaces the one adopted in 1995 and provides a full update to reflect the current needs of the City. The plan was amended to take account of the recommendations of the Inspector who conducted a public inquiry in May/June 2003. In particular, this Plan recognises the importance of identifying sites, which have previously been developed, for regeneration and redevelopment in the future. This should have a significant effect on reducing the need for more greenfield development sites around the City of Norwich in the next ten years. It will also help to sustain the vigorous and attractive character of Norwich. We hope that this plan, adopted in November 2004, will create the right mixture of certainty and flexibility to respond to the changes we face.
