The total of areas under legal protection for Poland since 1995, in order to eliminate double counting of the same area, does not include nature reserves, documentation sites, ecological areas and landscape-nature complexes located within the boundaries of landscape parks and protected landscape areas. Data on the areas of special nature value under legal protection does not take into account information on Natura 2000 areas. Data on forms of nature protection are as of 31 December. Since 2009, in connection with the entry into force of the Act of 23 January 2009 amending certain acts in connection with changes in the organisation and division of public administration tasks in a voivodship (Journal of Laws 2009, No. 92, item 753), introducing, inter alia, amendments to the Act on Nature Conservation, the competencies of some entities with regard to the establishment of certain forms of nature protection have changed. Landscape parks and protected landscape areas were transferred to the competence of voivodship regional councils, and since 2009 all these areas have been reported in the OS-7 report by them. Documentation sites, ecological areas, landscape-nature complexes and monuments of nature were transferred to the competence of gmina offices, and since 2009 they have reported on the aforementioned forms of protection in the SG-01 report. Since 1999 one report has been drawn up for urban-rural gminas, with no information for urban and rural parts separately.
