Biodiversity Net Gain
Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) ensures that habitats are left in a measurably better state than they were prior to development.
River Condition Assessment
A River Condition Assessment (RCA) uses a combination of a ‘river type’ desk study and field-based survey, known as the Modular River Physical (MoRPh) survey, to evaluate the condition of a watercourse.
