Legislation index
This Annex provides an overview of the various regulatory controls that may
affect proposals to manage or restore shingle habitats. These fall into two
principal categories:
- General
Regulations not relating to particular designations;
- Specific
Regulations relating to specific designations.
Some of these activities will require an Environmental
Impact Assessment. There are also specific requirements where public
rights of way are affected.
Other Considerations
Other, general, legal considerations that could apply to such works are not
covered in the above discussion but may include such matters as health and safety,
employment law, human rights, compliance with any legal agreements (including
tenancy, financial and management agreements) and / or restrictive covenants
on land and obtaining the consent of private landowners.
Offshore aggregate extraction under new guidance from the Government may require
a 'Coastal
Impact Study'.
