Conditions of data use

The data may not be copied to third parties, published in any form, placed on the internet or supplied to the recipient’s client without written permission from DBRC except in the circumstances given below. Reports which include the data supplied by DBRC may be provided to the recipient’s client and to consultees provided that:

As well as incidental records and records from consultants, our data search includes data from: the Botanical Society for the British Isles (BSBI); British Dragonfly society; Butterfly Conservation; Cetacean recording network; Devon Bird Watching and Preservation Society (only 2001, 2006 records at moment), Devon Mammal Group; Devon Reptile and Amphibian Group; Devon Moth group; Devon Wildlife Trust nature reserves; Environment Agency (fish and invertebrate records); Natural England (bat records); Seasearch and the MNCR database; Seawatch foundation. Please note we do not hold information for the Devon Bat Group (http://devonbatgroup.org/ ) or Devon Invertebrate Forum. For more information on the species records we hold, see our website http://www.dbrc.org.uk/species-records/.

This data search has been undertaken using data held by DBRC at the time of the enquiry. The data held by DBRC does not represent complete coverage of species or habitats present within the county, so an absence of data for an area does not imply there are no important habitats or species present.

Site designation explanations

Statutory Sites:

There are no statutory sites within your search area

Non-Statutory Sites:

County Wildlife Sites (CWS): these are sites of county importance for wildlife, designated on the basis of the habitat or the known presence of particular species. This is not a statutory designation like SSSIs, and does not have any legal status. The National Planning Policy framework (NPPF) requires local authorities to identify and map locally designated sites of biodiversity importance (such as County Wildlife Sites) as part of the Local Plan process and to draw up criteria based policies against which proposals for development affecting them will be judged. CWS recognition does not demand any particular actions on the part of the Landowner and does not give the public rights of access. However, it may increase eligibility for land management grants.

Other Sites:

Unconfirmed Wildlife Sites (UWS): these are sites identified as having possible interest but not fully surveyed. Some of these sites will be areas of significant wildlife interest. The UWS dataset may also contain Proposed County Wildlife Sites (pCWS): these are usually sites that have been surveyed but are awaiting consideration from the CWS Designation Panel, or sites that have been surveyed at an unfavorable time of year and are awaiting a re-survey.

Beaver Activity Zones: Your site is within a catchment where Beavers are present in adjacent catchment (PIAC): Beavers have been recorded on an immediately adjacent main river system (catchment). As beaver populations expand they will naturally colonise new watercourses in adjacent catchments. If your site is near a watercourse or pond near a watercourse there is the potential in the short-term that beavers will colonise the catchment in which your site resides. It could be important to consider how future activities can be compliant with legislation on beaver protection. Further details can be found here: Protection and management of beavers in England (gov.uk). For further information on beaver ecology and management please contact your local beaver management group or beavers@devonwildlifetrust.org.
