COMMISSION NOTICE Assessment of plans and projects in relation to Natura 2000 sites – Methodological guidance on the provisions of Article 6(3) and (4) of the Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC · European Union

Maintaining the overall coherence of the Natura 2000 network means ensuring that the compensatory measures proposed address the habitats and species in proportions comparable to the adverse effects caused on the site. The competent authorities must therefore determine the relative importance of the Natura 2000 features affected and the negative impacts on them according to quantitative and qualitative criteria. This sets the baseline for compensation.
