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

The habitat type or the habitats needed by a species must be fully functional before the impairment occurs, especially if there is a danger of losing a relevant (partial) population of a species protected under Annex 2 of the FFH Directive or Annex 1 of the Birds Directive. In such cases, only measures implemented in advance which are already effective at the time of the intervention can be considered as sufficient measures for ensuring coherence. For reasons of nature conservation a time-lag in functionality cannot be tolerated.
