Under Article 4(8) of the WFD, Member States are required – when applying Article 4(7) of the WFD – to ensure that the application is consistent with the implementation of other EU environmental legislation. In other words, if the project is granted a derogation under Article 4(7) of the WFD, it must still comply with Article 6(3) and (4) of the Habitats Directive, if applicable.
