Developing evidence based framework for nutrient neutrality

The objective of this project is to develop guidance and/or tools based on the best available evidence which can enable Natural England staff to adequately and appropriately comment on a range of nutrient neutrality mitigation proposals.

The project is in three parts: - Reviewing and collating the evidence around the nutrient exports from semi natural habitats and the effectiveness of habitat restoration in reducing nutrients exports. - Develop a framework approach for how to assess the effectiveness of habitat restoration mitigation proposals. - Development of a nutrient mitigation look up tool.
