Representation Summary:

MW5 - The Brecks Protected Habitats and Species. We note here that birds are afforded a greater buffer zone than that considered acceptable for people close to any proposed or actual mineral development. That is unacceptable. However, there are breeding pairs of Nightjars within The Warren (AOSE) and possibly Woodlarks too, therefore, the Warren should be afforded a 400m buffer as per MW5.

MW5 - The Brecks Protected Habitats and Species. How can it be acceptable to place a greater protection buffer zone around a species of bird than that considered acceptable for people who live close to any proposed or actual mineral development? Providing protection to wildlife from the adverse impacts of humans is right and proper. There are breeding pairs of Nightjars within Shouldham Warren (AOSE) and possibly Woodlarks too; therefore, the Warren should be afforded a 400m buffer as per MW5.
