Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035
Representation ID: 1534
Received: 07/02/2019
Respondent: Natural England
Natural England recommends amending clause 9 to add potential recreational disturbance and water quality impacts from sewerage. Please see Natural England's comments on S31 and the HRA regarding waste water quality impacts.
We recommend amending the supporting text to refer to the Solent Wader and Brent Goose Strategy (SWBGS), which identifies sites important for SPA birds, and provides guidance on mitigation. However, the allocation of sites in the parish should follow the 'avoid, mitigate, compensate' hierarchy and seek to avoid sites identified by the SWBGS.
