										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Please find details of the presentation for a SANG in Braishfield.</p>
<p class="p1">The Fairbournes Farm site comprises 80 hectares of diary and arable farming which currently produces a substantial nitrate input to the Solent catchment contributing to algae bloom in the Solent. The potential change of use to a SANG site would result in a publicly accessible Country Park suitable for dog walking and general recreation use and would also eliminate the current nitrate leaching.</p>
<p class="p1">The proposals are designed to be as naturalistic as possible although will require certain infrastructure such as the car park area, information signs and some benches and dog bins in appropriate areas. The site would contain a 2.9km formal footpath route as well as the established Public Right of Way, and offer extensive informal walking areas, including woodland.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
