Item7Appendix2HRA20190209DET
This document contains a Habitats Regulations Appraisal for a proposed distillery at Grantown on Spey, dated 11 October 2019, which is related to regulation 48 of the Conservation (Natural Habitats, &C.) Regulations 1994 as amended. The appraisal focuses on the potential impact of the distillery's construction and operation on the River Spey Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and its associated Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), including species like freshwater pearl mussels, sea lamprey, Atlantic salmon, and otters. The proposal involves building a distillery with associated infrastructure, including water abstraction and discharge, and the appraisal assesses potential impacts on water quality, habitat, and species disturbance. The document outlines mitigation measures, such as moving infrastructure out of flood plains, using Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS), and implementing a Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP), to ensure no adverse effects on the River Spey's integrity. It is concluded that there is no adverse affect on the River Spey if the mitigations built into the proposal are followed.
