Draft Habitats Regulations Assessment No Significant Effects Report for comment

Please find attached the Planning Inspectorate?s comments on your draft No Significant Effects Report (NSER). As you will see, we have identified a number of gaps and have come across a few issues that we feel should be addressed in the NSER prior to the DCO application. We understand that NRW and CCC are also reviewing the draft NSER and welcome this approach. We recommend that sufficient time be given to take into account any comments received from NRW and CCC prior to the submission of the DCO application.
