Consultation Report: Harbour porpoise SACs noise guidance 2020

Abstract

JNCC Report 652, 'Consultation Report: Harbour porpoise SACs noise guidance', was published in 2020 to accompany JNCC Report 654, 'Guidance on noise management in harbour porpoise SACs'; and JNCC Report 653, 'Background to the advice on noise management within harbour porpoise SACs in England, Wales and Northern Ireland'.

JNCC Report 652 addresses comments received from several stakeholders consulted during February and March 2020 on the evidence base supporting the guidance and the approach taken. It provides all comments received, including those on implementation. Whilst the consultation did not focus on implementation aspects, those comments were welcomed as these will help inform future discussions with industry and regulators.

This report accompanies a series of associated JNCC resources. Please go to: Guidance on noise management in harbour porpoise SACs (2020); and New updated Effective Deterrent Ranges (2025) to access the resources and find out more.
