  • Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk – Habitats Regulations Assessment Supplementary Note in Relation
    Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk – Habitats Regulations Assessment Supplementary Note in relation to the parts of the Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk to be re-published under Regulation 19 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations, 2012 Introduction The Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk (JCS) was adopted in March, 2011. However, as a result of a legal challenge following the adoption of the JCS, parts of the strategy were remitted by Order of the High Court. This means that the relevant parts of the JCS (which are specified in a schedule to the Order) are treated as if they have been published as a preliminary to submission to the Secretary of State for examination by an independent inspector, but not progressed beyond that stage. The Order specified certain steps to be taken to enable the re adoption of the JCS, including publication as a preliminary to submission for independent examination. One of the requirements of publication is a Habitats Regulations Assessment. This is because, in accordance with article 6 (3) of the Council Directive 92/43/EEC (as amended) on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and of Wild Fauna and Flora (EC Habitats Directive), as transposed into UK law under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010, a task 1 Appropriate Assessment Test of Likely Significance indicated potential effects on European designated sites within the zone of influence of the policies included in the JCS. Subsequently a task 2 Appropriate Assessment of the JCS was produced in August, 2009, and a further updated Assessment produced in February, 2010.

  • Fen Management Strategy - Explains the Role of the Strategy and Its Relationship to Other Documents
    CONTENTS Acknowledgements Purpose & use of the fen management strategy - explains the role of the strategy and its relationship to other documents Summary - outlines the need for a fen management strategy Introduction - Sets the picture of development and use of fens from their origins to present day Approach to producing strategy - Methodology to writing the fen management strategy Species requirements: This section provides a summary of our existing knowledge concerning birds, plants, mammals and invertebrates associated with the Broads fens. This information forms a basis for the fen management strategy. Vegetation resource Mammals Birds Invertebrates Summary of special features for each valley: This section mainly identifies the botanical features within each valley. The distribution of birds, mammals and invertebrates is either variable or unknown, and so has been covered only in a general sense in the section on species requirements. However, where there is obvious bird interest concentrated within particular valleys, this has been identified. The botanical section provides a summary analysis of the fen vegetation resource survey and considers the relative importance of fen vegetation in a local and national context. A summary of the chemical variables of the soils for each valley has also been included. Ant valley Bure valley Muckfleet valley Thurne valley Waveney valley Yare valley The fen resource for the future: Identifies aims and objectives to restore fens to favourable nature conservation state Environmental constraints and opportunities - Using the fen management strategy: - During the fen vegetation resource survey, chemical variables of the substratum associated with various plant communities were measured. The purpose of these measurements was to provide some indication of the importance of substrate to the plant communities.

  • Biodiversity Action Plan
    BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN April 2018 BROADS IDB – BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN Front cover images (L-R) Marsh Harrier ©Artur Rydzewski; Norfolk Hawker © Milo Bostock; Water Soldier; Water Vole; Berney Marshes ©Mike Page; BIDB Digger BROADS IDB – BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN FOREWORD This Biodiversity Action Plan (Second Edition) has been prepared by the Broads Internal Drainage Board in accordance with the commitment in the Implementation Plan of the DEFRA Internal Drainage Board Review for IDB’s, 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 Broads 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.

  • Habitats Regulations Assessment: Draft Scoping Report
    North Norfolk 2016 - 2036 HABITATS REGULATIONS ASSESSMENT Draft Scoping Report May 2017 North Norfolk District Council Planning Policy Team Telephone: 01263 516318 E-Mail: [email protected] Write to: Planning Policy Manager, North Norfolk District Council, Holt Road, Cromer, NR27 9EN www.north-norfolk.gov.uk/localplan All documents can be made available in Braille, audio, large print or in other languages. Please contact 01263 516318 to discuss your requirements. Draft HRA Scoping - North Norfolk District Council – Emerging Local Plan Executive Summary Habitats Regulations Assessment is required in accordance with the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010, (amended 2012); in order to ensure that plans and projects do not have a likely significant effect on any European designated sites for nature conservation. Such plans or projects can only proceed if the competent authority is convinced they will not have an “adverse effect on the integrity of a European site”. Where there is uncertainty over the effects then the competent authority will need to demonstrate how these can be avoided and what mitigation can be put in place. A Local Plan is the subject of Habitats Regulations Assessment, which is the responsibility of the plan-making body (in this case North Norfolk District Council) to produce. This scoping report provides the background and review of evidence to support the commencement of screening and the final Habitats Regulations Assessment of the North Norfolk Core Strategy and Site Allocations documents. This report considers: • The European designated sites within and outside the plan area affected. • The characteristics of these sites and their conservation objectives.
