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.

Resilient Coasts
What is Resilient Coasts?
- Resilient Coasts is one of 25 projects funded by Defra as part of the £200 million Flood and Coastal Innovation Programmes which is managed by the Environment Agency. The programmes will drive innovation in flood and coastal resilience and adaptation to a changing climate.
- The project will be completed in 2027 and is being led by East Suffolk Council in partnership with Great Yarmouth Borough Council.
- The aim of the project is to explore innovative solutions to help coastal communities across Norfolk and Suffolk become more resilient to coastal change.
- This means investigating, trialling and evaluating potential longer-term coastal management solutions. The evidence gathered through this six-year programme will inform future approaches to, and investment in, national flood and coastal risk management.
- The project funding cannot be spent on traditional coastal defence schemes such as rock armour, as these are currently progressed through Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management (FCERM) Grant in Aid applications.
What is Resilient Coasts doing?
- Using the latest LiDAR drone, photogrammetry and ground mapping technology, Resilient Coasts can map what is at risk across the frontage and produce maps that can demonstrate coastal change to communities and support coastal management decisions.
- We are investigating options to attract new funding sources to invest in the coast and exploring different ways to assign value to the coast.
- We will engage with communities to help them plan for the future by understanding their risk and preparing to adapt to a changing coast.
- We are investigating the possibility of infrastructure providers (e.g. Highways, gas, electricity, telecoms and water companies) helping to fund resilience projects where their own assets may be at risk.
- We are gathering evidence and developing new approaches to influence policy to help enable adaptation and community resilience in future coastal planning.
- We are exploring more sustainable ways of managing our coastal assets to help plan future approaches on a changing coast.
