The key priorities identified by the group include:Ensuring that the excellent work theLiving Levels Partnershipis currently doing at scale on habitat restoration, land owner and public engagement through a RSPB and Gwent Wildlife Trust lead Heritage Lottery funded project is continued. With its funding due to end in March 2022, the Living Levels Partnership have now appointed a consultant to help the partners plan a successor to the Living Levels Landscape project. This will include stakeholder mapping of current and potential partners, a vision to 2050 and a 5 year action plan as well as advice on funding and governance models. The draft deliverables will be available by mid-September and a final plan by the beginning of December.Additional planning guidanceacross the three local authorities involvedto better enable the right developments in the right place and to avoid further unacceptable biodiversity and landscape impacts on the Gwent levels. Policy 9 in Future Wales encourages Local Planning Authorities to work with stakeholders, including NRW to develop policies for key areas and the Gwent levels has been identified as one of the nine National Natural Resources Areas in Future Wales. This will require better evidence on the relative impacts of different types of development on the features of the levels. Welsh Government will catalyse this action as a pilot for National Natural Resource Management Areas and Future Wales Policy 9.To renew and increase the coverage ofLand Management Agreementswhichare a key tool to enable land owners and managers to carry out important habitat management work to maintain and enhance the biodiversity features of SSSI’s. These require negotiation with, and payments to, land managers such as farmers by NRW which are quite resource intensive. To speed up this process and get many more of our SSSI’s into a favourable condition, Welsh Government has recently provided NRW with an additional £2.75M to increase this activity. This will include land on the Gwent Levels.
