Marine Conservation Zones - Biosphere takes the lead

 

A NEW group formed by members of the North Devon Biosphere Reserve has been set up to co-ordinate local input on the creation of Marine Conservation Zones in northern Devon as a response to the new Marine and Coastal Access Bill.

Robert Down, chairman of the working group, said: "All of us acknowledge the need for conservation. Our aim is to identify and then safeguard the most precious North Devon marine environments by proposing levels of protection for them on which we hope to reach consensus."
