WILDLIFE AND COUNTRYSIDE ACT 1981, SECTION 29

Notice is hereby given that on 29th July 1998, the Secretary of State for Wales acting under section 29 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, made the Gweunydd Pendinas Nature Conservation Order 1998. This Order applies section 29(3) of the Act to the land described in Schedule 1 to the Order and specifies the operations described in Schedule 2 to the Order which appear to the Secretary of State likely to destroy or damage the lowland semi-natural grassland communities by reason of which the site is of special scientific interest and of national importance.
  The general effect of the Order is to prohibit any person from carrying out the operations specified in Schedule 2 to the Order on the land described in Schedule 1. In certain circumstances this prohibition does not apply. These circumstances are set out in section 29 of the Act.
  The Order took effect when it was made and will cease to have effect 9 months after it was made unless the Secretary of State previously gives notice that he has considered it and does not propose to amend or revoke it or that he has amended or revoked it.
  Representations about or objections to the Order may be made to the Secretary of State for Wales, Environment 4, Welsh Office, Cardiff CF1 2NQ. Such representations or objections should be made before Monday, 7th September 1998, and should be in writing, stating the title of the Order. In the case of objections, the grounds on which they are made should be stated.
  Copies of the Order and the map referred to in it have been deposited at the offices of the Countryside Council for Wales, Plas Gogerddan, Aberystwyth, Dyfed SY23 3EE. They may be inspected, free of charge, at all reasonable hours.
