Abstract | This document provides a summary of the evidence used in proposing an area of land as one which should be, or should continue to be, designated as a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ) for the purposes of the Nitrate Pollution Prevention Regulations 2015. NVZs are areas of land that drain to polluted waters and which contribute to the pollution of those waters. Polluted waters include those which are eutrophic or may in the near future become so if the Regulations were not to apply there. |
