The definition of SPAs with marine components is set out in the following paper: http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/pdf/MN2KPG16_13_MN2KDefs.pdf The SPA Sites worksheet lists the sites with marine components and their reference attributes. This includes: Site code, Site name, Site status, Country, CP2 Region , Feature type, Marine interest features, Common name, Population type and Annex I/ROMS. Please note that habitats are not listed as qualifying interest features of SPAs but are documented in section 4.1 (General site character) of the Standard Natura 2000 Data Form. For this reason we list marine habitats in SPAs separately in the SPA Marine Habitats worksheet. The spreadsheet is the top copy with an update covering: - the revision to Natura 2000 Standard Data Forms and the submission of data to the European Commission in December 2015 - new species features, in particular those introduced via the SPA extension work in Scotland - removal of 9 SPAs from the list following reviews by the country agencies of which sites contain marine components. These sites remain designated for terrestrial/freshwater features but are no longer considered to have marine components. - addition of Northumbria Coast SPA which is now considered to contain marine components" - Extension and reclassification of Dungeness to Pett Level SPA. The site name is now 'Dungness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay SPA'. Boundary, area, latitude, longitude and qualifying features have been amended.
