Maintenance and development plan
A maintenance and development plan ( PEP or PEPL for short ) as specialist planning includes specifications for the maintenance and development (biotope management) of protected areas or parts of the landscape that are worth protecting in accordance with the Nature Conservation Act . This includes the compilation of the biotic and abiotic starting conditions, determination of the planning basis, conception and the final planning with the aim of a nature-friendly use. The aim, especially in urban planning , is to promote ecological, aesthetic or cultural-historical values.
As a non-legally binding plan, a PEPL is an implementation proposal. On the one hand, the aim is to preserve the flora and fauna typical of the area, particularly endangered species . Furthermore, the protection, improvement and renovation of their habitats, as well as the restoration of the uniqueness, diversity and beauty of the landscape .
The term management plan ( MaP ) is now mostly used.
