Grid distribution 10 x 10 km from the Perlière Moule in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

The pearl mussel has become a species protected by French law since the Order of 7 October 1992 and Decree No. 99-615 of 7 July 1999. It is also included in Annexes II and V of the Habitats-Faune-Flore Directive and Annex III to the Berne Convention. In 2010, the IUCN Red List classified it as “endangered”. It is considered to be facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future. This layer presents on a regional scale the distribution of the Pearl Mould by 10 x 10 km mesh. As the species was sensitive, DREAL aggregated the accurate data to the 10 x 10 km grid. Legally, the SINP protocol (Circular of the Ministry of Ecology dated May 15, 2013) defines sensitive data. See extracts from the Protocol in the Annex. These are the data referred to in Article L. 124-4 §8 of the Environmental Code whose consultation or communication undermines the protection of the environment. — If you are an individual, a design office or a local authority, you can approach the Conservatoire des Espaces Naturels (CEN) in Auvergne (e-mail address: [email protected] ) to request access to accurate data. CEN Auvergne will consider whether or not precise data can be made available. — If you are a State department, you can request that the precise data be made available from the DREAL Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (CIDDAE department, SIG centre) at [email protected].
