What this layer shows

Special Areas of Conservation for natural habitats and wild flora and fauna under the Habitats Directive, from the Ministry of Environment and Water's data. A plan, programme, project or investment proposal that may significantly affect a site, even from outside it, is subject to a compatibility assessment under the Biological Diversity Act and its ordinance; the competent authority (the ministry or the regional inspectorate of environment and water) decides.
