Designations for such internationally important sites include Special Protection Area (SPA), Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and Ramsar site.

Strategic engagement
Many new connections and significant generation infrastructure are required to deliver net zero carbon emissions in the UK by 2050. The resources and conditions in East Suffolk and East Anglia for fixed foundation offshore wind and interconnectors make this area favourable to developers. East Suffolk Council is concerned about the significant number of projects which might seek to be accommodated within the district as a result. Through engagement with developers individually and collectively, the council has and continues to seek to minimise the harm and adverse impacts on the environment and communities from projects, whilst ensuring that any benefits are maximised. Simultaneously, East Suffolk Council is also engaging on a more strategic level.

Habitats Regulations Mitigation (RAMS)
The Suffolk Coast and Heaths is a special place, with its internationally important wildlife sites a huge draw for residents and visitors. New residential development in the area, including tourist accommodation, is therefore expected to increase the number of people visiting these wildlife sites, which include Special Protection Areas, Special Areas of Conservation and Ramsar sites. These three designations are collectively known as Habitats sites (also known as European sites). They are protected by the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 as amended (known as the Habitats Regulations). Habitats sites are designated for their incredible birds, plants, habitats and other rare and unusual species. It’s this diversity of nature that makes visiting the Suffolk Coast and Heaths such a unique experience.
