BIO-DIVERSITY NET GAIN
The Biodiversity Net Gain requirement on the site is addressed through the delivery of a net unit change of 11.65% for habitats and 39.19% for hedgerows. The solution will require refining as part of the Reserved Matters application, but in short a small section of hedgerow will be removed to create a road access and visibility splays. The gapping up of the hedgerow around the boundary of the site, except for connections to the footpath on the western boundary, accounts for the hedgerow net gain. In addition, the triangular piece of land to the north and immediately adjacent to the site will be utilised for "off-site" habitat and enhancement, through the delivery of 0.67 Ha of temporary grassland and clover leys. As such the area is offered as part of the sale for the delivery of BNG. For further detail see the PEA and BNG Statement in the Data Vault. Once refined, the final BNG Plan will need to include a BNG Plan and Monitoring Plan to be submitted and agreed in writing by the LPA.

DRAINAGE STRATEGY
The site naturally drains to the south east, with a proposed attenuation pond in the south east corner. The water from the pond will drain at agricultural rates into the ditch on the south side of the field and then away from the site along the roadside ditch to east of the site, which then flows southwards.
