Appropriate Assessment Screening Report
5. CONCLUSION
Stage 1 Screening for AA of Strategy modifications was carried out to determine the need for full AA for the Strategy modifications in this case. It has been demonstrated that implementation of the Strategy modifications are not foreseen to have any significant effects on any European Site. The principal reasons the modifications to the Draft Strategy will not give rise to any likely significant effects on designated European sites, alone or in combination with other plans or projects, are as follows: • The modifications are only intended to provide clarification and further insight to existing information in the Draft Strategy and make the Strategy more operative and focussed. • The modifications are not material and will not result in any additional, likely significant environmental effects, including effects in ecological processes or European sites, not already considered in the AA Screening Report for the Draft Strategy.
It is concluded in view of best scientific knowledge and in view of conservation objectives, that the modifications to the Draft Strategy will not give rise to any likely significant effects on designated European sites, alone or in combination with other plans or projects. Consequently, a Stage 2 AA is not required for the Strategy modifications.
