and agreements are tailored to local circumstances. 70. The Environmental Stewardship Scheme builds on Defra’s previous agri-


environmental schemes. Historical agreements under the Environmentally Sensitive Areas Scheme and Countryside Stewardship Scheme are in some cases still continuing and are therefore also discussed where relevant in this chapter. The objectives of these are similar to the objectives of the ESS.


71. Natural England provides information on these agreements in GIS form at http://www.gis.naturalengland.org.uk/pubs/gis/GIS_register.asp. The location of the agreements within the onshore electrical transmission works including access is shown in Figure 22.4.


72. Within area of the onshore electrical transmission works including access around


half the land is under some form of management. However, it should be noted that the mapping from Natural England identifies the parcels of land that are subject to agreements. It does not identify the specific areas of land that are under specific management (e.g. the location of wildlife friendly strips within parcels of land).


73. Within the area of the onshore electrical transmission works including access the


following schemes have been identified:  Entry Level Stewardship Agreements;


 Entry Level plus Higher Level Agreements (i.e. both type of agreements are in place);


 Higher Level Agreements; and  Organic Entry Level Agreements plus Higher Level Stewardship.

diseases between adjacent land holdings and fields, since installation will cross between these land holdings and fields.


75. No records of animal burials within the onshore electrical transmission works including access were provided following consultation with the Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency and the Food and Environment Research Agency.


76. There are three Statutory Notices in place for the plant pest potato cyst nematode


within the area of the onshore electrical transmission works including access. These locations are shown in Figure 22.5.
