Natura 2000 network. Special Bird Protection Areas (SPAs)

Demarcation of Special Protection Areas for Birds (SPAs) established in accordance with the Birds Directive. In the first group are those SPAs whose extension is very similar to a ZEC. These SPAs have the same delimitation as SACs. This is the case of ES0000122 — Aritzakun-Urritzate-Gorramendi, ES0000123 — Larra-Aztaparreta, ES0000126 — Roncesvalles-Selva de Irati, ES0000128 — Sierra de San Miguel. These limits are generated taking as a reference the information of the cadastre of Navarre at 1:5,000 scale. In a second group are those SPAs whose extension is very similar to a SAC but their surface is crossed by another river SAC. In these cases, the original delimitation of the SPA is maintained at 1:10.000 scale. To differentiate it from the ZEC, they are assigned a new identifier. This is the case of ES0000481 — Foces of Benasa and Burgui and ES0000483 — Ezkaurre-Arrigorrieta. In a third group are those SPAs whose extension differs greatly from a SAC and the original delimitation of the SPA is maintained at 1:10.000 scale. This is the case of ES0000150 — Peñas de Etxauri, ES0000151 — Caparreta, ES0000171 — El Plano-Blanca Alta, ES0000172 — Rincón del Bu-La Nasa-Tripazul. In a fourth group are all the other SPAs that will be adapted to ZECs as soon as their management plan is approved.
