Decision making process on designation of Natura 2000 sites In 200 Polish Ministry of Environment released a preliminary list of designated sites (29 sites 10.2% area of Poland). In 2004 an official list submitted to the European Commission was cut by the Government (14 sites -.% area of Poland) Polish NGOs submitted a shadow list to the European Commission (additional 12 sites + extention of boarders for 1 sites proposed by the Government = 9.4% area of Poland + the Baltic Sea)
Polish road development plan in clash with Natura 2000
Methdology Polish road development plan in clash with Natura 2000 Similar methodological approach as presented by Birdlife in their report on potential impact of the TINA network on IBAs. Direct and indirect impact of roads Inner and outer buffer zones for sites potentially affected by infrastructure development Less conservative buffer zones than proposed by Bridlife and RSPB since more precise data on route location was used.

Potential clash with Natura 2000 26 potential conflicts with Special Protection Areas to conserve the Bird species (SPAs) potential conflicts with areas listed under Birds and Habitats Directives.
Potential clash with Natura 2000 29 potential conflicts with Special Areas of Conservation (SACs)
Potential clash with Natura 2000 potencial conflicts with sites designated by Government 22 potential conflicts with sites from the preliminary list
How to protect Natura 2000 network? Very fast implementation of EU environmental legislation: SEA Directive for national road development plan Habitats Directive on the site level EIA Directive on the project level. Complaint to the Commission concerning failure to comply with EU law
