Biodiversity Net Gain for land managers
An online session for land managers to understand more about Biodiversity Net Gain in the water environment.
This session is organised by the Western Sussex Rivers Trust and is aimed at local land managers looking to find out about the potential for Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and will cover both terrestrial and watercourse opportunities.
BNG experts, Dr Rowenna Baker, and Charlie Dwight, will talk us through what BNG is, its requirement under Planning and its potential for restoration sites. They will cover what needs to be done to generate BNG, e.g. different types of units, pre surveys, post intervention designs, as well as go through the rules and what helps increase BNG, e.g. habitat condition, objectives from the Local Nature Recovery Strategy, and market value.
There will be worked examples and plenty of time for a Q&A session.
