How it works

AERIUS input checklist, from one answer

  1. Enter the project location and describe its phases and sources.
  2. ePlan finds nearby Natura 2000 areas and lists the inputs AERIUS Calculator needs.
  3. Read the free checklist. Building it next? Start a V&G plan draft.

What you get

Questions

AERIUS Berekening: what people ask

Is AERIUS Calculator mandatory?

Yes, for calculating nitrogen deposition from a Natura 2000 activity. The rules name AERIUS Calculator, and the version to use is set in an annex to the regulation.

How is construction handled in the calculation?

Flag temporary deposition in AERIUS Calculator; emissions can be entered per day, month or year. Use the highest deposition over 12 consecutive months. If construction deposition is lower than the use phase, assume the use-phase deposition from the start of construction.

Does traffic count?

Yes. Extra traffic the project attracts counts outside the site too, until it can be considered part of the normal traffic pattern. Where that boundary lies is decided per project.
