Public consultation on plans to extend coast's Special Protection Area
PLANS to increase protection for wildlife along the East Yorkshire coast have gone out to public consultation.
Natural England is seeking views on a proposal to extend the existing Special Protection Area (SPA) at Flamborough Head and Bempton Cliffs, as well as possible changes to the Flamborough Head Special Area of Conservation (SAC).
If the plans go ahead, the area would be renamed the Flamborough and Filey Coast SPA.
