Auchterarder SEA
Have you prepared an Environmental Report?
An Environmental Report has been prepared on behalf of
Perth & Kinross Council. The Environmental Report
identifies and evaluates the significant environmental effects that
are likely to result from the implementation of Auchterarder
Expansion Development Framework. It identifies any reasonable
alternatives and seeks to minimise or mitigate for any potential
effects on the environment.
What is Strategic Environmental
Assessment?
SEA is a key component of sustainable development establishing
important new methods for protecting the environment and extending
opportunities for participation in public policy decision
making.
SEA achieves this by:- systematically assessing and monitoring the
significant environmental effects of public sector strategies,
plans and programmes; ensuring that expertise and views are sought
at various points in the process from SNH, SEPA, Historic Scotland
(the consultation authorities) and the public; and requiring a
public statement as to how opinions have been taken into
account.
What happens next?
The environmental report together with other comments has
informed the approved Auchterarder Development Framework which can
be viewed on the downloads section on this page.
