Natural England, operating from Kendal, England, has completed a procurement process for the "Derwent Lamprey Survey," focusing on environmental monitoring not related to construction. This selective tender, part of a framework agreement, involved a contract starting on 29th July 2025 and ending on 31st March 2026, with a value of £29,885. The project is located in the North West of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is complete, with the award being published on 8th October 2025.
