Amend paragraph 8.25 as follows -

Following consultation with Natural England, an Essex-wide Recreational Disturbance Avoidance and Mitigation Strategy (RAMS) is being prepared to include all coastal European sites. The strategy will identify where recreational disturbance is happening and the main recreational uses causing the disturbance. New residential development that is likely to affect the integrity of the European Sites will be required to contribute towards the implementation of the mitigation. At this stage, it is considered that development allocations in this location will be required to pay for the implementation of mitigation measures to protect the interest features of European designated sites along the Essex Coast which include the Crouch and Roach Estuaries Special Protection Area, the Colne and Blackwater Estuaries SPAs and Ramsar sites and Site of Special Scientific Interest, and the Essex Estuaries Special Area of Conservation. The appropriate mechanisms will be identified in the RAMS.

3. Effective.

The Essex Rams Steering Group agreed the following action at its 5th February 2019 meeting -
ALL to endeavour to use the policy text in Chelmsford's emerging Local Plan for the RAMS so that there is consistency across all LPAs involved in the Essex Coast RAMS

The wording was agreed in response to issues raised by Natural England (PS2078) in response to Chelmsford Draft Local Plan and was included in their Schedule of Additional Changes - June 2018.
