Progress status:
Amber light shows that some progress is being
made towards achieving this objective.
Progress update:
Percentage (of area assessed) of geological SSSIs in the National Park in "favourable condition"
Number of Regionally Important Geological Sites established in the National Park
A list of candidate RIGS/Local Geological Sites has been drawn up following preparation of a Geodiversity Audit, by the North Yorkshire Geodiversity Partnership project officer. However, due to budget cuts, the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority no longer has the resources to take forward formal designation of those sites.
