The ultimate aim of the Directive is to “maintain or restore, at favourable conservation status, natural habitats and species of wild fauna and flora of Community interest” (Habitats Directive, Article 2(2)). This aim relates to habitats and species, not the European sites themselves, although the sites have a significant role in delivering favourable conservation status. European sites (also called Natura 2000 sites) can be defined as actual or proposed/candidate Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) or Special Protection Areas (SPA). It is also Government policy for sites designated under the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar sites) to be treated as having equivalent status to Natura 2000 sites. 1.1.2 The Habitats Directive applies the precautionary principle to protected areas; plans and projects can only be permitted having ascertained that there will be no adverse effect on the integrity of the site(s) in question. This is in contrast to the SEA Directive which does not prescribe how plan or programme proponents should respond to the findings of an environmental assessment; it simply says that the assessment findings (as documented in the ‘environmental report’) should be ‘taken into account’ during preparation of the plan or programme. In the case of the Habitats Directive, plans and projects may still be permitted if there are no alternatives to them and there are Imperative Reasons of Overriding Public Interest (IROPI) as to why they should go ahead. In such cases, compensation would be necessary to ensure the overall integrity of the site network. 1.1.3 All the European sites mentioned in this document are shown in Figure 1. In order to ascertain whether or not site integrity will be affected, an HRA should be undertaken of the plan or project in question.

The legislative basis for Habitat Regulations Assessment Habitats Directive 1992 Article 6 (3) states that: “Any plan or project not directly connected with or necessary to the management of the site but likely to have a significant effect thereon, either individually or in combination with other plans or projects, shall be subject to appropriate assessment of its implications for the site in view of the site's conservation objectives.” Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010 (as amended) The Regulations state that: “A competent authority, before deciding to … give any consent for a plan or project which is likely to have a significant effect on a European site … shall make an appropriate assessment of the implications for the site in view of that sites conservation objectives”. 1.2 Scope and Objectives 1.2.1 URS has been appointed by East Hertfordshire District Council to assist in undertaking a Habitat Regulations Assessment (HRA) of the potential effects of the seven District Plan (CS) housing scenarios on the Natura 2000 network. This work builds upon a high-level HRA Screening exercise undertaken by Scott Wilson Ltd (now URS) on the District Plan Issues and Options in 2010. 1.2.2 The CS will define the strategic planning framework for the protection of the environment, sustainable transport priorities, and the scale, pattern and location of development within East Hertfordshire. HRA Screening Report 2 December 2012 East Hertfordshire District Council District Plan Scenarios 2 Methodology 2.1 Key Principles 2.1.1 This section sets out the basis of the methodology for the HRA. URS has adhered to several key principles in developing the methodology – see Table 1. Table 1 - Key principles underpinning the proposed methodology Principle Rationale Use existing information We make the best use of existing information to inform the assessment. This will include information gathered as part of the SA of the emerging Plan and information held by Natural England, the Environment Agency and others. Consult with Natural England, the Environment We will ensure consultation with Natural England Agency and other stakeholders for the duration of the assessment. We will ensure that we utilise information held by them and others and take on board their comments on the

    GB 0046 D/ECb Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 13977 The National Archives HERTFORDSHIRE RECORD OFFICE D/ECb Deeds of the Koddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brevors. Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine.
