BNG for Local Planning Authorities


At Ecology by Design, we can support local planning authorities reviewing their land and property holdings from a BNG perspective.
We have substantial experience providing site surveys, baseline assessments, recommendations, and habitat management plans if required.
Tailored services include:
  • High level consultancy advice covering all aspects of the process for BNG
  • High level consultancy advice to LPAs who don’t have in house expertise to scrutinise BNG metrics, Biodiversity Gain Plans and/or HMMPs submitted to inform an application or discharge conditions
  • Scoping surveys of LPA land holdings with regard to BNG
  • Completion of HMMPs for LPA land
  • Ecological monitoring surveys of LPA land registered as a land bank
