Kent Biodiversity Net Gain Site Register
The Kent Biodiversity Net Gain Site Register has been developed to:
- Provide evidence of the potential supply of ‘off-site’ biodiversity units.
- Provide evidence to support the implementation of BNG policy requirements.
- Allow users to register ‘off-site’ BNG sites which have not yet been surveyed (prospective sites).
- Allow users to register ‘off-site’ sites which have been surveyed and have a completed BNG metric (surveyed sites).
- Allow the identification of ‘off-site’ BNG delivery sites and facilitate contact between the landowner and a consultant/developer.
The Kent BNG Site Register is distinct from DEFRA’s ‘Register land for off-site biodiversity gain’ which records BNG sites once a legal agreement is in place.
