Received: 11/10/2021

Respondent: Stafford Borough Council

Representation Summary:

In terms of strategic cross border issues we will continue to work with you on all relevant matters relating to protection of the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) & Ramsar sites, in particular the Cannock Chase SAC and the wider nitrogen deposition project. Therefore Policy ENV2 is welcomed within the Black Country Draft Plan in order to mitigate for recreational pressure on the Cannock Chase SAC, although it should be noted that from 1 April 2022 reference to the Strategic Access Management and Monitoring Measures (SAMMMs) will be replaced by the Detailed Implementation Plans (DIPs) for Car Parking, and Site User Infrastructure, Education and Engagement.
