“There are nine areas designated as Ancient Woodlands (AWs) within 2 km of the site, three of which are defined by Natural Resources Wales as ammonia sensitive AWs. There are also seven areas designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), two of which, Montgomery Canal SSSI and Granllyn SSSI, are also designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SACs).
The modelling predicts that: For all three scenarios, there is an exceedance of the Natural Resources Wales lower threshold percentage of the Critical Level of 3.0 μg/m³ at nearby stretches of Montgomey Canal SSSI/SAC. This exceedance is predicted to impact a stretch of the SSSI/SAC that measures approximately 1 km in length.”
