creation and management. A practical guide to the<br />

restoration and management of lowland heathland<br />

considers this Biodiversity Action Plan priority habitat,<br />

the pressures it faces from development and other factors,<br />

and the need for appropriate management to maintain its<br />

ecological richness. The Habitat creation handbook for<br />

the mineral industry focuses on the creation of priority<br />

habitats on redundant mineral workings. Both guides:<br />
