The website has been redesigned and is currently being updated.  The management scheme for the SAC is being finalised and will be officially launched next year.  Also launched will be the new bilingual dvd version of the SAC video.

Draft Management Scheme
The Pembrokeshire Marine Special Area of Conservation Draft Management Scheme is now publicly available for comment.  All feedback is encouraged as it will help to complete the final management scheme document, currently timetabled for publication before July 2006.  Please note that the deadline for responses is 28th April 2006.

The purpose of the Management Scheme document is to provide a framework within which the relevant authorities can fulfil their obligations under the EC Habitats Directive in ensuring that the conservation objectives for the site are achieved.

The Draft Management Scheme document contains a comprehensive list of proposed actions which have been identified as being required to maintain the long-term future of the special features of this site.  Draft actions – to be taken individually or jointly by relevant and competent authorities – are set out and prioritised in an action plan.  It should be stressed that the document is based on current best available knowledge and understanding, and represents the initial views of the Relevant Authorities Group acting collectively; the management outlined in this document may need to change in the longer term as new information becomes available and issues change.
