The following cannot be considered as compensatory measures: (i) the implementation of a management plan for the site; (ii) measures for improving the conservation status of a habitat type on a site that are already planned irrespective of the plan/project; or (iii) the designation as special area of conservation of an area already identified as being of Community importance. Instead, compensatory measures should be additional to the conservation measures that need to be established and implemented in a Natura 2000 site and additional to other protection provisions required by the Habitats and Birds Directives or obligations laid down in EU law.
