Sand Dune Restoration

English Nature are in the process of identifying the best way to manage part of the seaward area at Ainsdale Sand Dunes National Nature Reserve.

In order to determine the best option for future management of the consultation area and to meet legislative requirements the need for an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of proposed options has been identified.

The Environmental Impact Assessment is available for download of the English Nature website.
