The Strategic Environmental Assessments

The purpose of this report is to determine whether or not the Yetminster & Ryme Intrinseca Neighbourhood Plan requires a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) through a process known as SEA screening.

This document presents the final SEA screening report following the consultation. It provides an outline of the emerging Yetminster & Ryme Intrinseca Neighbourhood Plan and environmental characteristics of the plan area, explains the legislative background to SEA screening, before providing an account of the SEA screening exercise for the Yetminster & Ryme Intrinseca Neighbourhood Plan.
