5.7.2.5 Mitigation
The following mitigation works will need to be applied at the EIA project-level by the developer,
as appropriate, to minimise any potentially significant (i.e. moderate or major) impacts of the
Draft Plan on terrestrial ecology:
ƒ Re-routeing of cables and relocating development to less sensitive areas;
ƒ Habitat creation schemes to compensate for the loss of terrestrial habitat with
ecological value; and
ƒ Relocation of sensitive faunal species.

5.7.2.6 Residual impact
The mitigation measures identified in Section 5.7.2.5 could reduce the potential impacts of the
Draft Plan, thereby resulting in lower levels of residual impact. However, it is not possible with
any level of certainty, to determine the exact level of residual impact as the extent of mitigation
achievable will be heavily dependent on many project specific factors. However, the
significance of potential residual impacts have been estimated and summarised in Table 26
below.
