FGS SMF Low Impact Silvicultural Systems (LISS)

Scotland’s woodlands and forests are a vital national resource and play an important role in rural development and sustainable land use.

As well as helping to reduce the impacts of climate change and providing timber for industry, our forests enhance and protect the environment and provide opportunities for public enjoyment.

The Forestry Grant Scheme (FGS) will support:
- the creation of new woodlands, contributing towards the Scottish Government target of over 10,000 hectares of new woodlands per year
- the sustainable management of existing woodlands

LISS
==================
The aim of this option is to facilitate the transformation of stands to low impact silvicultural systems (LISS).

Low impact silvicultural systems are a type of woodland management that helps to increase species and structural diversity. It normally causes less rapid change to the landscape and to the physical environment than clear felling systems and so can help the landowner meet multi-purpose objectives.

In the context of climate change, varied silvicultural systems will increase the resilience of forests and may limit the damage caused by extreme events, such as gales or pests outbreaks.

Woodland Improvement Grant – Habitats and Species
===============
This option provides support for capital work that will benefit a range of priority habitats and species, as defined in the Scottish Biodiversity Strategy and European Directives.

This option is aimed at:

- Improving the condition of native woodlands and restoring Plantations on Ancient Woodland Sites to native woodland
- Restoration or conservation of non-woodland habitats (such as lowland raised bogs and blanket bogs) that are present within the internal boundary of the woodland
- Species associated with woodland edge (such as the pearl-bordered fritillary)
- Woodland Designed Landscapes

This dataset shows areas where grant money has been claimed and paid for successful New Natural Regeneration Establishment under the FGS Habitats and Species option.

This item is for the successful establishment of natural regeneration of native tree species on open ground within or around the woodland edge where there are prospects of regeneration occurring, and where the successful establishment of native trees meets the objectives of the Woodland Improvement Grant – Habitats and Species option as detailed in supporting information.

- 400 trees per hectare
- 200 trees per hectare

As well as helping to reduce the impacts of climate change and providing timber for industry, our forests enhance and protect the environment and provide opportunities for public enjoyment.

The Forestry Grant Scheme (FGS) will support:

NATIVE WOODLAND
==================
The aims of this option are to:

- maintain native woodland 
- bring native woodlands and designated woodland features into good ecological condition
- restore Plantations on Ancient Woodland Sites to native woodland through deer control and the natural regeneration

Native woodlands include a range of habitat types that are all UK priority habitats, while some are also European priority types. Good ecological condition of woodland depends partly on its character, age and management history.

In general, woodland in good ecological condition contains a variety of open ground, native trees and shrubs and wildlife species expected for the type of woodland.

The proposed management must be suitable for the ecosystem to be sustained, adapted or expanded.

You must control any threats from non-native species or inappropriate levels of grazing and browsing so that natural regeneration is encouraged.

North Yorkshire Local Plan Settlement Boundaries (Development Limits)

Development Limits (also known as Settlement Boundaries).

Development limits drawn around settlements defined in planning policy have been used for many years to differentiate where settlement or countryside policies apply in order to manage settlement growth. They form part of each former District within North Yorkshire Council Area (excluding National Parks).

Note: There are no Development Limits for the current (former) Craven District Council Local Plan.

YDNPA landscape character areas

The Yorkshire Dales National Park Landscape Character Assessment was reviewed in 2019 and extended to include the new areas in south east Cumbria and north east Lancashire which were designated National Park in 2016.  The Landscape Consultants were Sheilsflynn of Cambridge. The assessment consists of an overview report and 19 character area reports. The overview describes the landscape of the National Park, its categorisation and the forces for change acting on it. Each of the 19 area assessments describe their key characteristics supported by photographs and detailed maps. The Yorkshire Dales National Park Landscape Character Assessment was endorsed by the Authority in March  2020. It is now being used to inform partnership projects, land management strategies, planning policy, planning decision making and cross boundary working.
