Guidance

Worksheet Tab Process

Complete the sub-compartment record tab based on the current

composition of your woodland. Where relevant this information will
Sub-Compartment automatically transfer to the other worksheets to limit duplication of
Record and Inventory effort. The inventory section is provided to support the management of
your woodland and is not a formal requirement. Cells in grey have
been completed as an example of the type of information to provide.

This section provides the information required to allow us to offer a 10

year felling/thinning licence which also meets the requirements of
sustainable timber procurement through CPET Category B and EU
timber regulations. Basic sub-cpt information will auto populate from
the data previously entered. Information on restocking is needed to
offer a conditional felling licence. Should a woodland regeneration
Felling & Restocking
grant be required then the woodland regeneration grant section needs
to be completed. This will remove the need for a stand-alone grant
application. An indication of the potential funding available is also
provided. You need to also indicate in section 1 of the management
plan template that you would like to apply for WRG and speak with your
FC area team to check availability.

The work programme sheet allows you to communicate your planned

activities to support achievement of your objectives. This is for your
Work Programme
own management purposes but can be used by the FC to inform our
plan approval process.

This tab is purely for reference to allow you to use the recognised
Species List
abbreviations in completing the plan of operations.

 Defined per the Ancient & Native Woodland Practice Guide:
1) up to 20% non-native broadleaves are allowed, providing
Native Woodland they are not invasive;
(WRG) 2) A maximum of 20% of the remaining 80% could be
advancing native species (e.g. beech) or ‘honorary natives’
(e.g. sycamore), particularly if they are already present on
the site.
Normally open space is limited to 20% or below when
restocking, but increased flexibility up to 40% may be
Open Space allowed for clearly identified purposes. Proposals should
clearly differentiate between temporary and permanent
open space (the latter means areas that will be actively
managed to ensure it remains open).
In order to be eligible and claim the supplement for
WRG Plant Health Phytophthora affected sites, you must meet the good
practice guidelines set out in
Operations Note 24.
