Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed development on the integrity of European sites, with particular regard to nutrient pollution and recreational pressure
  • Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location, having regard to the local development strategy

What decided it

The proposal fails to comply with the Habitat Regulations because it cannot demonstrate with sufficient practical and scientific certainty that nutrient neutrality mitigation measures would be in place and effective to prevent adverse effects on the integrity of the River Wensum SAC and The Broads SAC and Ramsar.
