A site becomes a [http://glossary.eea.europa.eu/terminology/concept_html?term=site%20of%20community%20importance site of community importance] when it has been submitted and adopted by the European Commission as a special area of conservation (SAC), but not yet designated by the government of the member state. The designation of special areas of conservation (SAC) is delegated to the relevant administration within each country.

= Background =

A site of community importance supports natural habitats and species of community interest that are listed in the Annexes of the [http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:01992L0043-20070101 Habitats Directive]. The habitats and species are vulnerable, rare and endangered.

The sites are part of the European network and therefore the provisions of the [http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2010/490/contents/made Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010] (the “Habitats Regulations”) apply to them. Article 4.4 of the Habitats Regulations states:

“Member States shall designate sites of Community importance as a special area of conservation as soon as possible and within six years at most, establishing priorities in the light of the importance of the sites for the maintenance or restoration, at a favourable conservation status, of a natural habitat type in Annex I or a species in Annex II and for the coherence of Natura 2000, and in the light of the threats of degradation or destruction to which those sites are exposed”.

Within six years of a site being identified as a site of community importance, it should be should designated as special area of conservation with a priority being given to the more important sites, or those facing threats.
