1.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE ONSHORE SCHEME

1.1.1 AECOM was commissioned by National Grid Carbon (NGC) in February 2012 to undertake hedgerow surveys to inform the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of the Yorkshire and Humber Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Cross Country Pipeline (Onshore Scheme).

1.1.2 The Onshore Scheme (as shown on Figure 1) description, definitions of terminology and development are presented in Chapters 2: Onshore Scheme Development and Alternatives (Document. 6.2) and Chapter 3: Onshore Scheme Description of the Environmental Statement (Document. 6.3).

1.2 SURVEY AREA

1.2.1 The Survey Area for the Hedgerow Survey was based on the Preferred Route Corridor (PRC) and included any hedgerows that would be crossed by the Onshore Scheme or that were within or adjacent to any of the Option AGI Sites. For the purpose of this report, only the hedgerows that fall within the Onshore Scheme Application Boundary have been presented.

1.3 SITE DESCRIPTION

1.3.1 One of the most important characteristics of this predominantly rural site is its hedgerows. Their number and maturity provide a significant landscape feature and they act not just as field boundaries but as essential distribution corridors for a wide range of animals and birds.

1.3.2 The Onshore Scheme has been divided into four Sections (south to north) (Figure 1) to aid presenting the results:

• Camblesforth Multi-junction to Tollingham Block Valve (including the White Rose CCS connection; abbreviated to Camblesforth Multi-junction to Tollingham Block Valve in the remainder of this report);

• Tollingham Block Valve to Dalton Block Valve ; • Dalton Block Valve to Skerne Block Valve; and • Skerne Block Valve to Barmston Pumping Station (including Barmston

Pumping Station to Mean Low Water Spring [MLWS], abbreviated to

1.4 SURVEY OBJECTIVES

1.4.1 The objectives of the hedgerow survey/assessment are:

• To assess hedgerows which are located entirely or partially within the Application Boundary in accordance with the Hedgerow Regulation 1997 criteria and to determine which are classified as ‘Important’;

• To identify hedgerows which may not meet any of the Criteria for Importance, but which are considered to be of greater species diversity and composition, in particularly those which were considered to be Species Rich;

• Provide the above information to inform the completion of the Ecological Impact Assessment (EcIA) in relation to determination of the extent of hedgerow habitat to be lost (temporarily or permanently) by the Onshore Scheme; and

• To inform the landscape assessment regarding appropriate hedgerow and tree species to include in replanting and planting schemes.

2.1 BACKGROUND TO HEDGEROWS

2.1.1 The Defra Hedgerow Survey Handbook (2007) defines a hedgerow as ‘any boundary line of trees or shrubs over 20 m long and less than 5 m wide at the base, provided that at one time the trees or shrubs were more or less continuous. It includes an earth bank or wall only where such a feature occurs in association with a line of trees or shrubs. This includes ‘classic’ shrubby hedgerows, lines of trees, shrubby hedgerows with trees and very gappy hedgerows (where each shrubby section may be less than 20 m long, but the gaps are less than 20 m)’.

2.1.2 Hedgerows are a defining character of the English landscape and are important for agriculture, archaeology, ecology and culture. They assist in preventing soil erosion and water run-off, controlling livestock and providing shelter, but also are an important habitat for many globally threatened and rapidly declining species.

2.1.3 Approximately 130 UK priority species are known to be significantly associated with hedgerows; including their trees, banks, ground flora and margins. Many of these species belong to the following groups: invertebrates, amphibians, birds, bats and small mammals (Hedgelink website, 2011). Therefore the loss of hedgerows, or a decline in their quality, would be likely to have an adverse affect on their associated populations.

2.2 THE HEDGEROW REGULATIONS 1997

2.2.1 The Hedgerow Regulations 1997 (HM Government, 1997) provide a series of comprehensive assessments to identify “Important” hedgerows. To qualify as Important under the Regulations, the hedgerow must comply with the following list of criteria:

2.2.2 It must have a continuous length of or exceeding 20 m;

2.2.3 Has a continuous length of less than 20 m, but meets another hedgerow (by intersection or junction) at each end; and

2.2.4 It must be more than 30 years old.

Environmental Statement Volume 6: Environmental Statement Document 6.9.3

Ch.9 Ecology and Nature Conservation p.4

The Yorkshire and Humber CCS Cross Country Pipeline

2.2.5 In addition to the above criteria, to be deemed Important, a hedgerow must meet one or more of the following criteria:

2.2.6 Marks a pre - 1850 parish or township boundary;

2.2.7 Incorporates an archaeological feature;

2.2.8 Is part of or is associated with an archaeological site;

2.2.9 Marks the boundary of, or is associated with, a pre-1600 estate or manor;

2.2.10 Forms an integral part of the a pre-Parliamentary enclosure field system;

2.2.11 Contains certain categories of species of birds, animals or plants listed in the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) or Joint Nature Conservation Committee publications (JNCC);

2.2.12 Runs alongside a bridleway, footpath, road used a public path, or a byway open to all traffic and includes at least four woody species, on average, in a 30m length and has at least two of the associated features listed below; and

2.2.13 The hedgerow includes one or more of the following:

2.2.14 At least seven woody species; on average, in a 30 m length;

2.2.15 At least six woody species; on average, in a 30 m length and has at least three associated features (see list below);

2.2.16 At least six woody species, on average, in a 30 m length, including a black poplar; large-leaved lime, small-leaved lime or wild service tree; or

2.2.17 At least five woody species, on average, in a 30 m length and has at least four associated features.

2.2.18 For hedgerows located within Yorkshire, the Regulations state that the number of woody species is reduced by one in the criteria. For example, a hedgerow would meet this criterion if it contains at least four woody species on average, in a 30 m length and has at least four associated features.

2.2.19 The associated features are as follows:

2.2.20 A bank or wall for at least half the length of the hedgerow;

2.2.21 A ditch for at least half the length of the hedgerow;

2.2.22 Gaps over no more than 10% of the length of the hedgerow;

Environmental Statement Volume 6: Environmental Statement Document 6.9.3

Ch.9 Ecology and Nature Conservation p.5

The Yorkshire and Humber CCS Cross Country Pipeline

2.2.23 On average, at least one standard tree per 50 metres of hedgerow;

2.2.24 At least three woodland species from a list of 57 woodland plants (as defined in Schedule 2 of the Regulations) within 1 m of the hedgerow;

2.2.25 Connections scoring four or more points, where connection with a hedgerow counts as one, a broad-leaved woodland or pond counts as two; and

2.2.26 A parallel hedgerow within 15 m.

2.3 SPECIES RICH AND SPECIES POOR HEDGEROWS

2.3.1 The Defra Hedgerow Survey Handbook (2007) defines a Species Rich hedgerow as one where the structural species making up the 30m section of hedgerow include at least five woody species that are either native somewhere in the UK. Climbers and bramble do not count towards the total number of woody species except for roses.

2.3.2 Hedgerows that contain fewer woody species but have a rich basal herbaceous flora may also be defined as Species Rich, but the criteria to define these have to be set on a local basis as there is no national definition (Defra, 2007).

2.3.3 Therefore for the Onshore Scheme, located in North and East Yorkshire Counties, hedgerows which contain at least four woody species per 30 m section but do not meet any of the other Hedgerow Regulations criteria, including number of associated features, have been classified as Species Rich.

2.3.4 Those hedgerows which include less than four woody species per 30m section and do not meet any other of the Hedgerow Regulations criteria have been categorised as Species Poor.

2.4 HEDGEROW REMOVAL

2.4.1 Under The Hedgerow Regulations 1997, the removal of any hedgerows, or sections of hedgerows will require a Hedgerow Removal Licence from the Local Planning Authority (LPA). The Hedgerow Regulations 1997 criteria, as listed above, assess whether a hedgerow is ‘Important’. If the hedgerow is not Important, the LPA cannot refuse permission to remove the hedgerow. If the hedgerow is important, the LPA will decide if the circumstances justify removal of an Important hedgerow. Unless satisfied that removal is justified, the LPA must refuse permission and issue a hedgerow retention licence.

Environmental Statement Volume 6: Environmental Statement Document 6.9.3

Ch.9 Ecology and Nature Conservation p.6

The Yorkshire and Humber CCS Cross Country Pipeline

2.4.2 Under The Hedgerow Regulations 1997, the removal of any hedgerow to which the Regulations apply is permitted if it is required for carrying out development for which planning permission has been granted or it is deemed to have been granted. Therefore it may not be necessary to have to seek permission specifically to remove the hedgerow.

2.5 LEGISLATION AND GUIDANCE RELATING TO HEDGEROWS

2.5.1 Several statutes and official guidance relate to the protection of hedgerows and are detailed in Table 1 below.

Table 1: Legislation and Guidance relating to Hedgerows Legislation/Policy Description

Hedgerow Regulations 1997

In England and Wales The Hedgerow Regulations 1997 are intended to protect important countryside hedgerows from destruction or damage. Hedgerows are assessed against a number of criteria in relation to their archaeology and history, and wildlife and landscape, from which it is determined whether a hedgerow is ‘Important’.

Under these regulations, any person wishing to remove a hedgerow must submit a hedgerow removal notice the LPA. The LPA will then decide whether to approve the notice or issue a hedgerow retention notice if the hedgerow has been identified as ‘Important’ under the Regulations. The granting of planning permission grants the right to remove “Important” hedgerows

The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended)

The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) is the primary UK mechanism for statutory site designation such as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and the protection of individual species listed under Schedules 1, 2, 5 and 8 of the Act, each subject to varying levels of protection.

In addition, the Act also lists invasive species under Schedule 9 to which release, spread and sale prohibitions apply.

The Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000

This legislation places a statutory obligation on Local Authorities and other public bodies to further the conservation of biodiversity in the exercise of their functions, thus providing a statutory basis to the Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) process which began

in 1994 and has recently (2012) been succeeded by The UK Post 2010 Biodiversity Framework. Section 74 of the Act lists the habitat types and species of principal importance in England.

Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006

The NERC Act 2006 created Natural England, bringing together the function of English Nature and certain functions performed by the Countryside Agency and the Rural Development Service. This act also makes additional provisions with respect to pesticides harmful to wildlife, invasive non-native species, the protection of biodiversity and the protection of birds. Section 40 of this Act introduced a new duty on public bodies to have regard to the purpose of conserving biodiversity in exercising their functions.

UK Post 2010 Biodiversity Framework

The UK BAP was launched in 1994 with the main aim ‘To conserve and enhance biological diversity within the UK, and to contribute to the conservation of global biodiversity through all appropriate mechanisms’. This has recently (2012) been succeeded by The UK Post 2010 Biodiversity Framework. The UK BAP comprised a series of Action Plans for ‘priority’ habitats (Habitat Action Plans HAPs) and species (Species Action Plans SAPs), determined by the fact that they are either globally threatened or are rapidly declining in the UK. These action plans outline measures required to conserve these priority habitats and species and are still relevant under the new Biodiversity Framework.

The Hedgerow HAP includes all hedgerows, consisting predominantly (at least 80%) of at least one native woody species of tree/shrub, where each UK country can define the list of woody species native to their respective country.

Great crested newt is listed as a priority species in both the Selby Local BAP (2004) and East Riding of Yorkshire BAP Strategy (2010) which cover the Study Area.

3.1 CONSULTATION

3.1.1 In order to identify any existing data on hedgerows within the Survey Area, East Riding of Yorkshire Council was contacted to request any relevant data on hedgerows, including any that have been recorded as Important.

3.2 INITIAL SCOPE ASSESSMENT

3.2.1 The scope of the hedgerow survey work was informed by the following elements:

3.2.2 Extended Phase 1 Habitat Surveys – during the completion of these surveys in early 2012, field boundaries were mapped in accordance with the JNCC (2010) Phase 1 habitat codes; including the mapping of boundaries as Species Rich or Species Poor; defunct and intact hedgerows (with or without trees). All boundaries that were mapped as (potentially) Species Rich and/or with trees were included within the scope of the 2012 and 2013 hedgerow field surveys.

3.2.3 Desk Study – a review of the aerial mapping was undertaken in August 2012 to determine the potential presence of hedgerows in areas of land where the Extended Phase 1 Habitat Surveys had not yet been undertaken. Any hedgerows identified from the aerial mapping (or where boundary features were unclear from the maps) were also included within the scope of the detailed hedgerow surveys.

3.3 FIELD SURVEY

3.3.1 The Species Rich hedgerows identified by the Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey and additional hedgerows which may also have been identified through the desk study were surveyed between the 25th September and 19th October 2012.

3.3.2 Any remaining hedgerows located in the Survey Area which were not surveyed in 2012 plus any newly identified hedgerows (i.e. those identified by the ongoing Extended Phase 1 Habitat Surveys following granting of access) were surveyed between the 1st and 5th July 2013.

Ch.9 Ecology and Nature Conservation p.9

The Yorkshire and Humber CCS Cross Country Pipeline

3.3.3 Hedgerow surveys were undertaken following the methodology as outlined in Defra (2007). A standardised set of parameters were recorded for each hedgerow covering hedgerow type, connections, characteristics (length, height, width), associated features, integrity, trees, non-native species, woody species, ground flora species and hedgerow management.

3.3.4 The field survey collated information to assess the ecological criteria of the Hedgerow Regulations 1997; generally the number of woody species and associated features.

3.3.5 A photograph of each hedgerow surveyed was taken and the extent of the hedgerow was marked onto field survey plans. Where a hedgerow did not exist in the field, it was noted and subsequently removed from the hedgerow survey mapping and the Extended Phase 1 Habitat mapping.

3.4 ASSESSMENT - ECOLOGICAL (CRITERIA 6 – 8, SECTION 2.2)

3.4.1 The ecological data gained during the field survey was assessed against the ecological criteria of the Hedgerow Regulations 1997 to ascertain which of the hedgerows could be classified as Important.

3.4.2 In addition the data was assessed to determine which hedgerows could be classed as Species Rich (i.e. those with four or more woody species per 30 m section) and those which were Species Poor.

3.4.3 Where hedgerows included at least four woody species but did not meet any of the other ‘Important’ criteria (including number of associated features) these have been categorised as Species Rich. Hedgerows with less than four woody species which do not meet any other of the criteria are categorised as Species Poor.

3.4.4 A hedgerow can be Species Rich and not classified as Important i.e. where it has four woody species but not the minimum of four associated features. Conversely a hedgerow can be Species Poor and classified as Important (due to archaeological or other criteria being met).

3.5 ARCHAEOLOGICAL DESK STUDY (CRITERIA 1- 5, SECTION 2.2)

3.5.1 Following completion of the field surveys, a desk-based assessment was undertaken to assess if any of the hedgerows (including those defined as species poor by the Phase 1 Habitat Survey) meet the archaeological/heritage based criteria of The Hedgerow Regulations. This involved a review of the archaeological Assets Plans, Parish Boundary and Enclosure Maps for the Survey Area (where available).

3.5.2 Chapter 10: Archaeology and Cultural Heritage (Document 6.10) of the Environmental Statement provides further details on the archaeological hedgerow assessment.

3.6 EVALUATION METHODOLOGY

3.6.1 The method of evaluation that has been utilised has been developed using guidance from the Guidelines for Ecological Impact Assessment (IEEM, 2006). These give advice on scoping and carrying out environmental assessments and place appraisal in the context of relevant policies.

3.6.2 The value of an ecological receptor identified is determined according to a geographical frame of reference. Value is assigned based on the conservation importance of a receptor, however, in some cases social or economic factors may be taken into account. The value of the ecological receptors to be used in the EcIA is determined using the criteria provided in Table 2.

3.6.3 Habitats and species considered to have a value of Local or above would be assessed within the EcIA. Certain receptors may be classified as “less than Local” if their value does not meet the criteria of Local. Table 2 provides a standard set of guidelines in order to determine the nature conservation value of hedgerows associated with the Onshore Scheme.

3.7 LIMITATIONS

3.7.1 It is recognised that the surveys were undertaken outside the optimal time for conducting hedgerow surveys in 2012; September and October. However woody species, associated features and a number of ground flora species would still have been identifiable by the experienced surveyors who carried out these surveys at this time of year.

3.7.2 The majority of landowners gave permission for their land to be accessed to allow ecological surveys to be undertaken. Some landowners refused to grant permission to access their land, and in these cases applications were made to the Secretary of State, under Section 53 of the Planning Act, to secure a right of entry onto the land. However, for a small number of areas, permission was initially granted, or was expected to be granted, but was later withdrawn. In these areas the time required to secure Section 53 notices, following refusal of access would have meant that surveys could

not be completed in the ideal season. The hedgerows on land affected by this lack of access are discussed below.

3.7.3 Access prevented a full hedgerow survey being undertaken on two hedgerows (ID 184 and 185) therefore no detailed ecological information is available. However these were identified through the desk study as Important under the archaeological criteria due to their presence as boundaries on an Enclosure Plan (these have been included in the totals below).

3.8 QUALITY ASSURANCE

3.8.1 All AECOM consultants working on the Onshore Scheme are members (at the appropriate level) of the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) and follow their code of professional conduct when undertaking ecological work.

4.2 SUMMARY OF FIELD RESULTS

4.2.1 Figure 2 Maps 2.1 to 2.10 show the location of all of the hedgerows that would be crossed by the Onshore Scheme or that were within or adjacent to any of the Option AGI Sites and their category (Species Poor, Species Rich and Important under both Ecological and/or Archaeological Criteria).

4.2.2 For the purpose of this report, only the hedgerows that fall within the Onshore Scheme Application Boundary have been discussed. A total of 164 hedgerows that fall within the Application Boundary were subject to detailed hedgerow surveys in 2012 and 2013. The location and category of these hedgerows are shown on Figure 2, Maps 2.1 – 2.10.

4.2.3 A number of hedgerows (including those without an identification number on the Figure 2 plans) were scoped out of further ecological assessment following the Extended Phase Habitat Survey as they were confirmed Species Poor, were defunct or lacking in associated features and would not be considered as ecologically Important. Those hedgerows scoped out of a detailed ecological hedgerow survey were still considered under the archaeological criteria of The Hedgerow Regulations 1997 and were considered during the archaeological desk study. Refer to the Chapter 10 Archaeology and Cultural Heritage (Document 6.10) of the Environmental Statement for further details on the archaeological hedgerow assessment and results.

4.3 IMPORTANT HEDGEROWS

4.3.1 A total of 93 hedgerows located within the Application Boundary met at least one of the criteria under the Hedgerow Regulations 1997 to be classed as Important. ‘Important’ hedgerows which are located entirely or partially within the Application Boundary are detailed in Table 3 and are shown on Figure 2, Maps 2.1 – 2.10.

4.3.2 Of the 93 Important hedgerows, 75 have been classified based upon meeting one or more of the archaeological criteria, six hedgerows are classified as Important under the ecological criteria and 12 are classed as Important as they meet both archaeological and ecological criteria. Appendix A provides further details of the survey results and criteria met.

4.3.3 Of the 93 Important hedgerows that fall within the Application Boundary, 90 are located entirely or partially within the Pipeline Envelope and nine are located entirely or partially within a Flexible Drainage Area (outside the Pipeline Envelope). Sixty seven of these hedgerows are located entirely or partially within the Likely Pipeline.

4.3.4 As a consequence of the layout of the Onshore Scheme boundaries, 42 of the 93 Important hedgerows are also located entirely or partially within or adjacent to one or more of the Other Onshore Scheme Elements. A summary of the Important hedgerow locations is as follows:

4.3.5 AGI – 6 Important hedgerows;

4.3.6 AGI Temporary Construction Area – 12 Important hedgerows (4 of these also lie partially within an AGI and are included in the AGI total above);

4.3.7 Flexible Drainage Areas – 21 Important hedgerows; and

4.3.8 Temporary Construction Area Pipeline – 3 Important hedgerows.

4.3.9 These are discussed in more details below. The number of Important hedgerows in each of the four Onshore Scheme Sections is shown in Table 3.

4.4 SPECIES RICH AND SPECIES POOR HEDGEROWS

4.4.1 Hedgerows that were not classified as Important under The Hedgerow Regulations 1997, were classified as either Species Rich (four or more woody species) or Species Poor (less than four woody species).

Species Rich Hedgerows

4.4.2 A total of 23 hedgerows which were surveyed within the Application Boundary do not meet any of the ecological or archaeological criteria for Importance but are categorised as Species Rich as they contain at least 4 woody species per 30 m section. These are shown as Species Rich on Figure 2, Maps 2.1 – 2.10.

4.4.3 All of these hedgerows are located within the Pipeline Envelope and 17 of them are located within the Likely Pipeline; these are summarised in Table 4. Further survey details are provided in Appendix A.

4.4.4 The most frequently occurring woody species in the Species Rich hedgerows was hawthorn (Crataegus monogyma) which was present in all but two of the hedgerows. Other frequently recorded woody species included blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) (recorded in 16 hedgerows), dog rose (Rosa canina agg.) (recorded in 14 hedgerows), and ash (Fraxinus excelsior) and hazel (Corylus avellana) both recorded in 10 hedgerows. Further information on species composition is provided in Section 5.1.

Species Poor Hedgerows

4.4.5 A total of 82 hedgerows that were subject to detailed hedgerow survey within the Application Boundary were classified as Species Poor, containing 3 or less woody plant species per 30 m and not meeting any other of the Hedgerow Regulations criteria. Of these, 74 are located within the Likely Pipeline. These are shown as Species Poor on Figure 2, Maps 2.1 – 2.10.

4.4.6 The most frequently occurring woody species in the Species Poor hedgerows was hawthorn which was present in all but two of the hedgerows. Other frequently recorded woody species included elder (Sambucus nigra) (recorded in 23 hedgerows), blackthorn (recorded in 21 hedgerows), dog rose (recorded in 18 hedgerows), and field rose (Rosa arvensis) (recorded in 13 hedgerows). Further information on species composition is provided in Section 5.1.

4.4.7 Additionally there were 78 hedgerows that were originally classified as Species Poor during the Extended Phase 1 Surveys and therefore were scoped out of requiring further detailed ecological survey. However they were included in the archaeological desk study which concluded that 40 of these were found to be Important and are discussed above in Section 4.3 above.

4.4.8 The total number of remaining Species Poor hedgerows recorded in each Section of the Onshore Scheme is provided in Table 5. Overall a total of 120 Species Poor hedgerows have been recorded within the Application Boundary, 90 of these fall within the Likely Pipeline.

5.1 SPECIES COMPOSITION

5.1.1 A total of 18 woody species were recorded during the Hedgerow Surveys (Appendix B). Hawthorn was the most common and abundant woody species recorded within the hedgerows surveyed and was present in 97% of the hedgerows surveyed across the Onshore Scheme. Blackthorn was the second most common woody species occurring in 40% of hedgerows with elder occurring in 37% of hedgerows. The five most commonly occurring species are shown in Table 6.

surveyed containing these species

Common hawthorn 97% Blackthorn 40% Elder 37% Dog rose 30% Ash 16%

5.1.2 A total of 86 hedgerows surveyed contained mature standard tree species; this represents approximately 50% of the hedgerows surveyed within the Application Boundary.

5.1.3 It is recommended that a diverse range of native hedgerow and tree species are incorporated into the re-planting landscape scheme. Replacement should be on a like for like basis wherever possible.

5.2 HEDGEROW SUMMARY

5.2.1 A summary of results for each of the four Onshore Scheme Sections is provided in Table 7.

5.2.2 Overall a total of 57% of the hedgerows subject to detail survey within the Onshore Scheme were found to meet the criteria for an Important hedgerow; 46% of the hedgerows were classified as Important under archaeological criteria, 7% met both archaeological and ecological criteria

and 4% met the ecological criteria. Important hedgerows represent approximately 38% of the hedgerows identified within the Application Boundary (i.e. those subject to detailed survey and those scoped out at the Phase 1 stage).

5.2.3 Camblesforth Multi-junction to Tollingham Block Valve Section contained the highest number of Important hedgerows, totalling 29, and the Skerne Block Valve to Barmston Pumping Station Section contained the fewest number, 22 hedgerows.

5.3 NATURE CONSERVATION VALUE

5.3.1 The nature conservation value of hedgerows recorded within the Onshore Scheme, in line with the criteria described in Table 2 is detailed below in Table 8.

Table 8: Hedgerow Value Assessment Receptor Level of Value/

Sensitivity of Receptor or Value of site to Receptor

Criteria for Evaluation Rationale

Hedgerows Important under Hedgerow Regulations 1997 Criteria

Regional (Yorkshire and Humber)

High or moderate importance and rarity, regional scale and limited potential for substitution:

• Viable areas of habitat identified in the Regional/County BAP or smaller areas of such a habitat which are essential to maintain the viability of the larger whole.

Hedgerows are listed as a UK Priority Habitat, Of the hedgerows surveyed (including archaeological desk study), 93 located within the Application Boundary have been assessed as meeting one or more of the Criteria for ‘Important’ under The Hedgerow Regulations 1997.

Important hedgerows represent approximately 38% of the hedgerows identified within the Application Boundary (those subject to survey and scoped out at Phase 1 stage).

This receptor is therefore considered to be of Regional Nature Conservation Value.

Hedgerows - Species Rich

Borough

Low or Moderate importance and rarity, borough scale:

• Identified in the Local BAP, and a feature which appreciably enriches the local area’s habitat resource.

Ch.9 Ecology and Nature Conservation p.34

The Yorkshire and Humber CCS Cross Country Pipeline

Table 8: Hedgerow Value Assessment Receptor Level of Value/

Sensitivity of Receptor or Value of site to Receptor

Criteria for Evaluation Rationale

Application Boundary are formed by a network of hedgerows. Hedgerows are included on both the East Riding of Yorkshire and Selby Local BAP.

Whilst these hedgerows do not meet the criteria as ‘Important’ they do contain a greater level of species diversity and therefore are considered to be of higher ecological value (than species poor or defunct hedgerows).

A total of 23 Species Rich hedgerows have been identified within the Application Boundary.

This receptor is therefore considered to be of Borough Nature Conservation Value.

Hedgerows – Species Poor

Local

Very low importance and rarity, local scale:

• Areas of habitat considered to appreciably enrich the habitat resource within the study area itself.

The majority of the hedgerows present within the Application Boundary are Species Poor (and/or defunct). A total of 120 hedgerows were recorded as Species Poor within the Application Boundary (through hedgerow surveys and Extended Phase 1 Habitat Surveys); containing less than 3 woody species (hawthorn or blackthorn being the dominant species). Nevertheless these features will still provide valuable wildlife corridor particularly where present in arable dominated landscapes, often being the only semi-natural habitat in the area and as such enhance the local area’s habitat resource.

This receptor is therefore considered to be of
