Representation ID: 24170

Received: 06/12/2018

Respondent: Mrs Yvonne Cope

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

It is clear that there are no possible ways to mitigate any potential adverse effects on the Pevensey Levels (RAMSAR/SSSI/SAC) via water borne pollution from this site.
If or rather, when this occurred it would be a breach of the Habitats Regulations and a contravention of the People over Wind Court of Justice European Union (CJEU) judgement established quite recently in Ireland.
This site should be removed from the plan as there should never be any development on a site so close to a RAMSAR wetlands region that could adversely affect that Special Area of Conservation.
