- Advisory Warning: A European Protected Species (EPS) Licence is required for this development. This planning permission does not provide consent to undertake works that require an EPS licence. It is an offence to deliberately capture, kill or disturb EPS or to recklessly damage or destroy their breeding sites or resting places. If found guilty of any offences, you could be sent to prison for up to 6 months and/or receive an unlimited fine. To undertake the works within the law, you can obtain further information on the need for a licence from Natural Resources Wales on 0300 065 3000 or at: www.naturalresources.wales/permits-and-permissions/species-licensing/apply-for-a-protected-species-licence/?lang=en When submitting any EPS licence application the applicant should include: • Defining the internal areas of the building where bats will have long-term sole usage. It appears from the report that the bats will continue to have unrestricted access into the building following the reroofing, which is acceptable. However, defining a bat roosting area would be beneficial, especially, if the usage of the building is likely to change in the future. This is also applicable to any bird nesting areas within the building. A lighting plan: This will need to be submitted if there is an intention to add lighting to this building
- 3Er mwyn sicrhau safon foddhaol o ddatblygiad a diogelu cymeriad ac ymddangosiad yr adeilad rhestredig yn unol â pholisïau A, Ff, 1, 6 a 7 o Gynllun Datblygu Lleol Eryri 2016-2031.

- Nodiadau Cynghorol Rhybudd: Mae angen Trwydded Rhywogaethau a Warchodir gan Ewrop (RhGE) ar gyfer y datblygiad hwn. Nid yw'r caniatâd cynllunio hwn yn rhoi caniatâd i ymgymryd â gwaith sydd angen trwydded RhGE. Mae'n drosedd dal, lladd neu aflonyddu ar RhGE yn fwriadol neu niweidio neu ddinistrio eu safleoedd bridio neu fannau gorffwys yn ddi-hid. Os cewch eich cael yn euog o unrhyw droseddau, gallech gael eich anfon i'r carchar am hyd at 6 mis a/neu dderbyn dirwy ddiderfyn. I ymgymryd â'r gwaith o fewn y gyfraith, gallwch gael rhagor o wybodaeth am yr angen am drwydded gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ar 0300 065 3000 neu yma: www.naturalresources.wales/permits-and-permissions/species-licensing/apply-for-a-protected-species-licence/?lang=cy Wrth gyflwyno unrhyw gais am drwydded RhGE dylai'r ymgeisydd gynnwys: • Diffinio ardaloedd mewnol yr adeilad lle bydd gan ystlumod ddefnydd hirdymol. Ymddengys o'r adroddiad y bydd gan yr ystlumod fynediad digyfyngiad i'r adeilad yn dilyn yr ail-doi, sy'n dderbyniol. Fodd bynnag, byddai diffinio ardal nythu ystlumod yn fuddiol, yn enwedig os yw defnydd yr adeilad yn debygol o newid yn y dyfodol. Mae hyn hefyd yn berthnasol i unrhyw ardaloedd nythu adar o fewn yr adeilad. Cynllun goleuo: Bydd angen cyflwyno hwn os oes bwriad i ychwanegu goleuadau at yr adeilad hwn
