About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to Salix River and Wetland Services Ltd for sediment removal works at Hoveton Broad National Nature Reserve.

The project involved mechanically moving sediment from the bed of Hoveton Great Broad and Hudson's Bay to achieve an average minimum depth of 1.1m, backfilling existing geotube areas, filling geobags on two tubes, and capping with fen vegetation to create new fen habitat.

The works were part of the Hoveton Wetlands Restoration project, a phased initiative under the Bure LIFE Project (LIFE14 NAT/UK/000054), supported by the European Community's LIFE financial instrument and the National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund.

The contract value was £425,390.73, with works scheduled from October 2019 to March 2020 to avoid nesting bird season.
