Information for participants
Landowners in NSW who are interested in protecting and conserving biodiversity values on their land may establish a biobank site and generate biodiversity credits. The Guide for Landowners provides the steps a landowner needs to take to establish a biobank site.
The Guide for Developers is designed to assist the development industry to understand BioBanking and how it can help identify land that is suitable for development, use the methodology to assess impacts and offsets, and buy credits.
Biodiversity credits can be generated by landowners who commit to enhance and protect biodiversity values on their land through a biobanking agreement. Credits can be sold to generate funds for the management of the site.
