Notice Information

Notice Title

Cheshire Meres Catchment Walkovers

Notice Description

Bagmere, Chapel Mere, Hatch Mere, Oak Mere and Quoisley Meres all located within Cheshire, and are part of the internationally important Midland Meres and Mosses. All are designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Ramsar sites and Oak Mere is also Special Area of Conservation (SAC), and are considered to be in unfavourable condition. All of the listed Cheshire meres are failing their water quality objectives for SSSI favourable condition status, therefore Natural England have proposed a programme of actions to improve the Cheshire mere's conservation and Water Framework Directive (WFD) status. One of these actions is to carry out a catchment walkover survey of the inflows into the meres to understand sources of nutrients, fine sediments and other pollutants. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses e-tendering, provided by Bravosolutions. In order to access the Bravo system you will need to be registered. Could I therefore request that you register on the Bravo portal for Defra. If you're already registered on the Bravo portal please check that your registration includes Defra, as you have to specify us in order to correctly receive the tender documents. If you have any problems with the registration process, please contact the Bravo helpline on 0800 368 4850 or alternatively email them at help@bravosolution.co.uk.
