We are concerned that the new paragraph after 11.512 may not provide adequate explanation regarding the issues of capacity at wastewater treatment works and could be misunderstood. To provide greater clarity, we suggest the new paragraph is amended as follows:

‘Within the hydrological catchment area designated for Riverine SACs, development will be required to demonstrate no adverse effect on the integrity of nutrient sensitive SACs. For development creating wastewater discharges, there will be a requirement to demonstrate there is capacity within the environmental permit limits set at the Wastewater Treatment Works to which it drains, taking account of fair share principles within the catchment into which the Works discharges. In doing so, development should not lead to any deterioration to a SAC failing to meet phosphorus targets or delay the achievement of meeting its conservation objectives.’

'Where evidence demonstrates that adverse effects on the integrity of SAC can be avoided or mitigated, this must be agreed with the planning authority on a case-by-case basis, in consultation with NRW.'

Agreed.
