The guidance documents are intended to be available for regulators and advisors as they carry out their decision-making and for developers and consultants as they prepare consenting and licensing applications. They are not intended to replace any regulatory requirements or prescribe action for a particular risk. This document is intended to be read in conjunction with the background document.
The stressor-specific documents have been developed from the evidence bases and engagement with the MRE community to provide links between scientific information on environmental effects of MRE and relevant legislation and regulations.
