Important update

The Biodiversity Conservation Fund Charge System replaced the Biodiversity Offsets Payment Calculator on 17 October 2022. The new Charge System will be used to determine the amount a proponent may pay into the Biodiversity Conservation Fund to meet their biodiversity offset obligation.

The Biodiversity Conservation Trust is responsible for administering the new Charge System. For more information about the Charge System, including how to request a quote, please visit the Biodiversity Conservation Trust website.
