Respondent: Natural England

Policy EMP7: Land at College Farm, Black Cat roundabout, Policy EMP8 Land at Roxton, south west of the Black Cat roundabout
Natural England notes the principle outlined in both policies which states that a “submission of a wildlife and habitat survey with appropriate mitigation and enhancements” will need be required. As these policies are situated approximately between 17km and 18km away from Eversden & Wimpole Woods SAC, we welcome this commitment, as the SAC is designated for its Barbastelle bat (Barbastella barbastellus) interest, which can have a foraging range of up to 20km.
