The RSPB considers that any increase in development, especially residential, close to the Special Protection Areas/Ramsar/SSSI must show that the corresponding increase in recreational disturbance pressures on the site and its waterbird assemblage and designated features must be fully assessed and mitigated, and this may not necessarily be possible simply through RAMS contributions.
