AONB publishes new Management Plan  
 
The second statutory Management Plan for Nidderdale AONB was endorsed by local authorities and formally approved by Natural England in April 2009.
 
The Plan is about how the special qualities of this nationally important landscape can be maintained, in a way that does not harm the interests of people who live and work in the AONB. It contains policies that say what the AONB stands for, a vision of how the AONB should look in 2020, and an Action Plan that sets out who needs to do what to meet the Plan's objectives by 2014.
