The commission is tasked to develop the project brief and test the feasibility of potential interventions, gathering information on constraints, risks, costs and potential delivery routes. The study is expected to be undertaken within the policy and funding context of the Scottish Environment Protection Agency's (SEPA) Water Environment Fund (WEF), which supports the identification and delivery of measures to improve the ecological status of water bodies. As such, the feasibility work should consider the objectives of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) and identify opportunities for restoration and enhancement that may be eligible for future WEF support. The commission for the Wanlock Water is anticipated to require a minewater pollution reduction and treatment feasibility assessment, based on existing knowledge and characterisation of the problem, along with a scoping and feasibility study of wider opportunities and constraints to define future locations of works. Opportunities may exist to undertake treatment trials and to deliver multiple benefits within the riparian zone and floodplain and on the hill and moor landscape. The commission shall allow the project to complete Stage 1 of the framework of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Plan of Work.. Scope TBC Review existing data and info - gap analysis. Targeted field surveys/assessments Delivery of opportunities & constraints mapping to assess feasibility. Baseline hydrological assessment of catchment.

There are opportunities for improvements that would reduce morphological pressure capacity through habitat creation and could benefit flood risk and reduce sediment deposition further downstream.
