Concerning the value of a Biodiversity Unit. Should the value be a constant, with the number of units ascertained by the Metric (according to category, condition and situation) in effect varying the concentration of value.

Following discussions with local authorities, I shall be re-referencing the BNG locations using ODGB36 Grid References rather than National Grid Field Numbers - which are essentially the same numbers, but in a different order. Actually makes sense, because it’s the centre of the site whereas the field numbers include areas not enhanced.

Happy New Year to you all ❄️ Yes, we're hoping for a colder, drier spell, but at least #BNG sales have begun (and there is a bit of marketing hype about), but we are just in the business of offering a fair deal for clients and customers alike 👍️

We now have a template for the Habitat Management and Monitoring Plan. Which is a help. I think.

The way in which a Developer may discharge it's BNG condition is now becoming clearer and differs from the way Nutrient Neutrality has been handled by LPAs: A developer will have to submit a Biodiversity Gain Plan (BGP) as a post-permission document for approval. This BGP will have to be approved by the LPA before development can commence.
