Biodiversity Duty Reports

The Biodiversity Duty Report documents the policies and actions that OPDC has carried out to comply with its biodiversity duty under the Environment Act 2021. 

These reports are required every five years and set out how OPDC has considered biodiversity as an organisation, including in planning policy, planning applications and community projects. It includes details about our achievements and outlines our aims for the next reporting period.
