Key management issues

The site can be described in three parts:

1) The coastline with the white cliffs. About 250.000 tourists are visiting the site per year, so one issue is to manage the Natura 2000-site and the turism in a sustainable way.

2) The forest is the most important site for the habitat 9150 in Denmark. Therefore it is an important issue to keep or even increase the area of this habitat.

3) The chalk grassland is the most important site for the habitat 6210 in Denmark, including lots of wild orcids. The issue here is to manage the site to restore the biotope.

 

Natura Network Agreements
Organising at least one Green Days event per year At least one Green Day at this site in 2006
Promoting Natura 2000 at the local level Making contact to each stakeholder before arriving there property. Also promote the Natura 2000 issue at meetings for forest-stakeholders.
Involving stakeholders in the management planning process Before private forests are registered we invite stakeholders to meetings (1-40 stakeholders per time), and inform them of the Natura 2000 process. After the national Natura 2000 plan is finished in 2009, the Danish Forest and Nature Agency will negotiate with each stakeholder, to make an agreement of managing the Natura 2000 habitats and species.
