Supporting Documents for the Draft South Pennine Moors SPA/SAC SPD
Representation ID: 5277

I fundamentally disagree with item 5 and its conclusions.
The screening process should have accepted that the SPD is not an addition to the current policy SC8, it is designed as a complete replacement for it, and this is referred to in the SPD itself numerous times. The new policy is designated as SD11, according to the SPD.
As the entire focus of the SPD is one of mitigation on the effects of Recreation on the SPA/SAC, it doesn't do anything to continue to protect from Urban effects.
Other than brief mentions in the appendices of legislative requirements, it does nothing to reassure the reader that it will be an effective tool in protecting the SPA/SAC from further deterioration.
Item (d): Is there likely to be a significant effect? : if the answer isn't "YES", then the entire focus of the SPD is wasted.
E) All new developments? Sun Lane?
