Shellfish Water Protected Areas
The Water Framework Directive requires specification of protected areas for those
areas designated for the protection of economically significant species. This list are
those protected areas previously designated under the repealed Shellfish Waters
Directive which are now specified under the Water Framework Directive.
This list constitutes that which is referred to under ‘The Water Environment (Water
Framework Directive) (England and Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2016’ which
come into force on 3 March 2016. In accordance with the above regulations, this list
replaces the notice that was provided to Natural Resources Wales under previous
legislation, the title of which was the ‘Shellfish Waters (Wales) Notice 2013’.
