Feasibility Assessment for Constructed Wetland near Lyscombe and Highdon SSSI in Poole Harbour Catchment
Awarded 30 Nov 2023
About
Natural England awarded a contract to Land & Water Services Ltd for a feasibility assessment of a constructed wetland on land near Lyscombe and Highdon SSSI in the Poole Harbour catchment area in Dorset.
The assessment aimed to identify opportunities for a treatment wetland to address historical nutrient loads from a groundwater-fed natural spring, with a focus on nature recovery and naturalised solutions.
Key outputs included a map of the holding and areas of interest with land area estimation, an options assessment of wetland types or designs for nutrient reduction and habitat improvement, a description of site potential including barriers or show-stoppers, and an initial broad assessment of nutrient credit yield range and financial cost of delivery, including appraisal against the wetland mitigation framework confidence matrix.
The scope covered a desk-based feasibility assessment guided by stage 2 of the wetland framework, reviewing topography, soil, geology and hydrogeology, groundwater protection, hydrology and drainage, flood risk, protected sites and species, and land use, historic landfill and contaminated land, as well as a site assessment involving a visit from a treatment wetland engineer to provide an overview of the land and hydraulic pathways.
The contract value was £14,495.
