Item6Appendix4bGeneral20180177DET
This document contains a letter from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) Scotland, dated 11 June 2018, addressed to the Cairngorms National Park Authority regarding planning application 2018/0177/DET for the renovation and extension of the Ptarmigan Restaurant on Cairngorm Mountain; the RSPB has no objection to the application but raises concerns about increased visitor numbers potentially impacting Special Protection Areas (SPAs) and Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) and highlights the need for a visitor management plan that considers these changes as well as concerns about increased bird strikes due to the new glass in the design, suggesting the use of anti-glare film and long-term monitoring; it is recommended that if planning permission is granted, conditions should be imposed regarding anti-glare film, mitigation for vehicle movements, screening shades for artificial lights, covering exposed pipes, and fencing around construction areas.
