Résumé The Regulations apply to applications as regards fish farming in marine waters where any part of the proposed development is in a sensitive area, or the proposed development is designed to hold a biomass of 100 tonnes or greater, or will extend to 0.1 hectare or more of the surface area. The Regulations provide for decisions on whether consideration of environmental information in respect of such applications for fish farming in marine waters is required to be taken by the Department of Agriculture. Regulation 3 provides that the Department shall not grant a fish culture licence under section 11 of the Fisheries Act (Northern Ireland) 1966 as regards fish farming in marine waters where the project is likely to have significant effects on the environment, without taking into consideration environmental information in respect of the proposed project. Regulation 8 provides that the environmental statement shall be publicised through press advertisement and made available for public inspection, with the opportunity for representations to be made. Regulation 9 provides that the Department shall consult the bodies mentioned in Schedule 3 about the environmental statement. Regulation 12 provides that the Water Appeals Commission for Northern Ireland shall not dispose of any appeal in relation to an application for a fish culture licence as regards fish farming in marine waters where the proposed development will be likely to have significant effects on the environment unless it has taken into consideration environmental information in respect of the proposed development. Regulation 14 implements Article 7 of the Directive by providing for consultation between Members States in cases of development likely to have significant effects in another Member State. Schedule 1 describes the selection criteria in relation to screening opinions of the Department. Schedule 2 sets out the information that is required in an environmental statement. Schedule 3 lists the bodies to be consulted by the Department under the Regulations.
