What is a NNAMS?

A NNAMS is a Nutrient Neutrality Assessment and Mitigation Strategy. It is a technical report that calculates the nutrient load associated with a proposed development and sets out the measures – whether on-site or off-site – that will be used to achieve nutrient neutrality. Many Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) require a NNAMS as a validation document before they will accept and register a planning application.
