So too has an issue with the look-up for condition N/A and the urban tree location in the trading summary.Ī simplified, beta test version, of the Biodiversity Metric 3.1 has been developed specifically for use on small development sites.

UPDATE : – Some users of earlier versions of excel encountered compatibility issues with Metric 3.1. An issue with the ‘Headline Results’ tab not flagging trading violations has also been resolved. – The Biodiversity Metric 3.1 has been updated to ensure that rows and columns are fully expanded as default. UPDATE : – The GIS import tool has been updated to fix an error pop-up message when enabling macro content and to ensure the import tool translates and inputs data into the correct onsite/offsite tabs in the main 3.1 metric calculation tool. – References in the habitat condition assessment sheets have been updated. – The habitat condition assessment sheets have been amended to align with technical guidance. – Wording within the grassland condition sheet in the technical guidance for low distinctiveness grasslands has been amended after a transcription error was highlighted by users. Should you wish to get in touch about any technical issues relating to Biodiversity Metric 3.1 please email – Errors in the results pages in the calculation tool, whereby the results were not showing correctly, has been fixed. The accompany change log published alongside metric 3.1 sets out the changes in more detail Users of the previous Biodiversity Metric 3.0 should continue to use that metric (unless requested to do otherwise by their client or consenting body) for the duration of the project it is being used for as they may find that certain biodiversity unit values metric 3.1 generates will differ from those generated by Biodiversity Metric 3.0. We will update the metric to allow for a better integration of intertidal and sub-tidal habitats as marine net gain evolves.

Defra is currently working towards a consultation on the principles for marine net gain. Work is underway to develop an approach to marine net gain for English waters. For any additional technical queries relating to metric 3.1 please email metric includes both intertidal and terrestrial habitats. We have sought to answer the most common questions asked in the Frequently Asked Questions document published alongside metric 3.1. Natural England continues to welcome technical feedback on this updated metric 3.1. We are expecting a consultation by Government about this during 2022. Natural England will be recommending to the Secretary of State that the Biodiversity Metric 3.1 forms the basis of the statutory biodiversity metric used to underpin future mandatory biodiversity net gain as set out in the Environment Act 2021.
