the identified Inner Clyde Special Protection Area or within the
designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).

Prior to its erection, details of the proposed screening barrier including its
location, extent, design and level of obscurity shall be submitted to, and
approved in writing by the Planning Authority.  The approved screening barrier
