Specific Activities Requiring Consent in areas designated under the Wildlife Acts as Natural Heritage Areas or under the European Communities (Birds and Natural Habitats) Regulations 2011 as Special Protection Areas or Special Areas of Conservation.

These activities are site specific and can range from drainage works and minor developments to scientific surveys in marine areas.
The 'consents' are for certain activities that are often also regulated under the Planning and Development Acts and the Department of Agriculture's On-Farm Development consent system but are below the general thresholds where explicit consent is required.

An online application system for activities concerning consent is being considered for development with a view to being made available through the website www.npws.ie
