There is no biodiversity offset program in Northern Territory but within the recent draft Darwin Harbour Regional Management Strategic Framework 2009-2013, there may be a role for offsets. The draft plan states that economic development should not impose a net negative environmental impact and mentions offsets as a means of minimizing unavoidable impact. At this point offsets are in a very early stage of development.
