Appendix 1 details categories of conservation significance recognised under these three frameworks. As detailed in Section 4.2, the assessment of likelihood of occurrence for each species has been made based on availability of suitable habitat, whether it is core or secondary, as well as records of the species during the current or past studies included in the desktop review. Table 6.1 details the likelihood assessment for each conservation significant species. For those species recorded or assessed as having the potential to occur within the study area, further species information is provided in Sections 6.1 and 6.2. 72 Cube:Current:1406a (BORR Alternate Alignments North and Central):Documents:1406a Northern and Central Fauna Rev0.docx BORR Northern and Central Section Fauna This page is intentionally left blank.
