  • Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019
    Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019 Produced as part of the Wester Ross Destination Development Plan preliminary research Context Upwards of an estimated c.100,000 tourists visit Wester Ross each year, sustaining local communities through their input to the local economy and tourism accounts for 35% of employment[1]. However, in the current climate (Summer 2019) there are concerns that a rise in tourism of up to 27% (estimate[2]) over the past few years may not be sustainable. Although a different perspective is that this has followed a deep recession in the tourism industry and visitor numbers have yet to return to the high levels enjoyed during the 1990s, the current situation is exacerbated by Local Authority and Public Agency budget cuts which have resulted in plans to close public toilets and a deterioration in road quality. In addition, the type of visitor has changed, Wester Ross is welcoming large amounts of campervans which require waste disposal facilities which are not yet in place. Local people are reporting over-flowing carparks and bins, increasing litter pollution and irresponsible behaviour. It is not unusual for local residents to cite increased litter as a negative aspect of tourism[3] and this together with other perceived negative impacts can become challenging to tourism development as the host community begin to view visitors less than favourably. Therefore, the World Tourism Organisation advises regions to adopt a model for tourism management which considers the social as well as economical and environmental impacts of tourism[4]. Mass tourism is not going away[5]. But currently, there is no hard-empirical evidence on visitor numbers, expectations and behaviour or condition of assets in Wester Ross which would allow communities, businesses, local authorities and public agencies to plan proactively.

  • Chapter 10: Ecology
    Lochluichart Wind Farm Extension II EIA Report Chapter 10: Ecology Non-Technical Summary Chapter 10: Ecology of the Environmental Impact Assessment Report for the Proposed Development has been prepared by Avian Ecology Ltd., and provides an assessment of potential effects of the Proposed Development upon ecological (excluding ornithology) features in accordance with the Chartered Institute for Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) guidelines (2018). The Proposed Development is for an alternative design to the consented Lochluichart Wind Farm Extension II (2020) (the ‘Consented Development’). The variation of design is detailed in Chapter 3, and largely comprises an increase in tip height of the consented turbines from 133m to 149.9m and minor increases in foundation and laydown areas. The assessment largely relies on information submitted to inform the application for the Consented Development, and has been informed through desk study, field surveys and consultation with relevant stakeholders. Where relevant, information from the operational Lochluichart Wind Farm, Lochluichart Wind Farm Extension (the ‘Operational Schemes’) and Corriemoillie Wind Farm has been referred. Field surveys undertaken have consisted of: • Extended Phase 1 habitat survey (2017); • National Vegetation Classification (NVC) survey (2017); • Bat Activity Surveys (2015, also being updated 2021); and, • Protected Mammal Surveys (2017, being updated 2021). The Proposed Development does not form part of any statutory or non-statutory designated site for nature conservation. Two such nationally and internationally designated sites are located within 5km; Beinn Daerg Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), and Fannich Hills SAC and SSSI. By virtue of spatial separation, absence of hydrological connectivity and embedded ‘good practice’ construction techniques, no direct or indirect upon any designated site for nature conservation will occur.

    Scottish Natural Heritage FACTS AND FIGURES 1996-97 Working with Scotland’s people to care for our natural heritage PREFACE SNH Facts and Figures 1996/97, contains a range of useful facts and statistics about SNH’s work and is a companion publication to our Annual Report. SNH came into being on 1 April 1992, and in our first Annual Report we published an inventory of Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs). After an interval of five years it is appropriate to now update this inventory. We have also provided a complete Scottish listing of National Nature Reserves, National Scenic Areas, European sites and certain other types of designation. As well as the information on sites, we have also published information on our successes during 1996/97 including partnership funding of projects, details of grants awarded, licences issued and our performance in meeting our standards for customer care. We have also published a full list of management agreements concluded in 1996/97. We hope that those consulting this document will find it a useful and valuable record.

  • Chapter 12 – Ornithology
    Lochluichart Wind Farm Extension II EIA Report Chapter 12: Ornithology Non-technical Summary Chapter 12: ‘Ornithology’ of the Proposed Development Environmental Impact Assessment Report has been prepared by Avian Ecology Ltd. and provides an assessment of potential impacts of the Proposed Development upon ornithological features in accordance with the Chartered Institute for Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) guidelines (2018). The assessment has been informed through desk study, ornithological field surveys and consultation with relevant stakeholders. Where relevant, information from the operational Lochluichart Wind Farm, Lochluichart Wind Farm Extension I and Corriemoillie Wind Farm has been referred. The scope of field surveys undertaken was informed through desk study, the suitability of habitats to support sensitive species and consultation responses obtained from SNH and RSPB. Field surveys were undertaken in accordance with SNH guidance applicable at the time (SNH, 2014) and included: Vantage Point (VP) Surveys; Moorland Breeding Bird Surveys; Woodland Grouse Surveys; and, Breeding Raptor and Diver Surveys. Important ornithological features identified through field survey and desk study included: Red-throated diver; Greylag goose; Red Kite Hen Harrier Golden eagle; Osprey; Merlin; Black grouse; Golden plover; and, Greenshank. Activity for all of the above species was extremely low. A single lekking black grouse was identified within the study area and the presence of a nesting pair of red-throated diver has also been established outside of the Proposed Development. Other species were recorded in flight only. The assessment presented within Chapter 12 assesses the potential effects upon important ornithological features during the construction, operational and decommissioning phase of the proposed development.
