River Avon Conservation Measures for Nutrient Management

This project seeks a consultant to develop a comprehensive list of long-term conservation measures to protect the River Avon Special Area of Conservation (SAC) from nutrient enrichment impacts. The consultant will identify practical, sustainable interventions that address nutrient pollution affecting sensitive river habitats and species. Deliverables will include detailed recommendations on restoration and mitigation strategies that can be implemented across the catchment. The output will serve as a strategic guide for Natural England, local authorities, and catchment management partners to prioritize funding, coordinate conservation efforts, and design future environmental improvement programmes. This work is essential for protecting the river's ecological features and achieving water quality objectives.
