8.BIODIVERSITY INFORMATIVE: In accordance with the biodiversity condition, appropriate ecological/biodiversity enhancement measures shall include but shall not be limited to: · bird/owl/bat boxes (Locating your nestbox: Whether fixed to a tree or a wall, the height above ground is not critical to most species of bird as long as the box is clear of inquisitive humans and prowling cats. If there is no natural shelter, it is best to mount a box facing somewhere between south-east and north to avoid strong direct sunlight and the heaviest rain. The box should be tilted slightly forwards so that the roof may deflect the rain from the entrance. You can use nails to attach the box directly to a tree trunk or branch; or you can use rope or wire wrapped right around the box and trunk (remembering to protect the trunk from the wire cutting into it by using a piece of rubber underneath it). Both methods are satisfactory, but annual maintenance is easier if the box is wired and can be taken down easily for cleaning. The number of nestboxes which can be placed in a garden depends on the species you wish to attract. Many species are fiercely territorial, such as blue tits, and will not tolerate another pair close by; about 2 to 3 pairs per acre is the normal density for blue tits. Other species, such as the tree sparrow, which is a colonial nester, will happily nest side-by-side. Do not place your nestbox close to a birdtable or feeding area, as the regular comings and goings of other birds are likely to prevent breeding in the box.) (Locating your bat box: Bat boxes should be positioned at least 3 metres above the ground (5 metres for noctules) in a position that receives some direct sun for part of the day, with a clear flight path to the box, but preferably also with some tree cover nearby as protection from the wind. In the roof eaves, on a wall or fixed to a tree are all suitable sites.) · biodiversity enhancing planting and landscaping including trees, hedges and native species, wildflower planting and nectar rich planting for bees and night scented flowers for bats · measures to enhance opportunities for invertebrates including bug hotels/log piles, stone walls including a programme of implementation and maintenance · holes in fences and boundary treatment to allow species such as hedgehog to move across the site · bee bricks · tree planting
9.NOTES - Please read the following notes carefully:- The applicant is reminded that, under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as amended (section 1), it is an offence to remove, damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while the nest is in use or being built. Planning consent for a development does not provide a defense against prosecution under this act. While trees and scrub are likely to contain nesting birds between 1st March and 31st August inclusive buildings can also support nesting birds. If works occur during the nesting period a careful check of the building by a competent ecologist should be undertaken to assess the nesting bird activity on the site during this period and has shown it is absolutely certain that nesting birds are not present.
