Management Plan Review
Public Consultation 28 May to 19 July 2013
Chichester Harbour Conservancy is currently undertaking a five-year review of the AONB Management Plan in line with the requirements of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. The new AONB Management Plan for 2014-19 will be published in April 2014.
This consultation provides an opportunity for partners, stakeholders and the public to comment on the draft plan, and will be vital in producing the final document that will guide the management of the AONB for the next five years. Please note that the consultation draft document is provided in text format and the final document will be in full-colour designed format.
The main aim of the consultation is to record your responses to the revised policies, strategic framework and role of all organisations in delivering the plan.
Thank you for taking the time to respond to the consultation, we look forward to receiving your comments.
The closing date for the consultation is Friday 19th July 2013.
