Hello Richard
With the national regulations coming into force the Trust have applied for a partial surrender of their consent essentially removing all the conditions relating to the discharge of brodifacoum. This has been accepted by the Council.
A copy of the acceptance is attached for your information. You will note in appendix B the Trust have some requirements to meet to be permitted under this regulation and we will be monitoring for compliance with these standards.
Cheers
Mandy.
What this means is:
- No need to notify public or neighbours.
- Don't need fence wof.
- No bigger zones or people to pick up poison dropped outside.
- No requirement to minimise bykill.
However, the fence does need to be approved by council. This is where council can actually now stop the drop. By confirming the fence is insecure it can refuse permission.
We need to impress on council that they now have the ability to say yay or nay. They must stay nay.
