This document contains a Habitats Regulations Appraisal, dated 3 May 2022 and checked by NatureScot on 9 May 2022, for a planning application (reference 2021/0166/DET) to build 15 homes with infrastructure at Kindrochit Court, Mar Road, Braemar. The appraisal considers the potential impact on nearby European sites including River Dee Special Area of Conservation (SAC), Ballochbuie Special Protection Area (SPA), Glen Tanar SPA, and Cairngorms SPA, mainly due to possible disturbance to capercaillie. The appraisal concludes that there is a risk of sediment release into the River Dee SAC during construction of a new road junction and potential for otter entrapment. However, the assessment outlines the need for a Construction Method Statement to detail pollution prevention measures, agreeing to this with the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) before starting works. If the condition is in place, there will not be an adverse effect on site integrity.
