## Notice

The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at https://defra-family.force.com/s/Welcome Any questions, requests to participate or tender submissions must be submitted electronically via this portal. The purpose of this project is to review the ecohydrological status of the three SSSI's, with a focus on the peat deposits in the surrounding landscape and the potential for the restoration of peat-forming conditions in general, and in the context of ombrotrophic bog. Investigation of the land beyond the SSSI boundary is of primary interest to this study, providing insight into the naturalised state of the historic peatland system hydrology and an account of the degree and effect of modifications over time. Information is required to inform detailed restoration plans for the lowland raised bogs and surrounding drained and modified peat and hydrology beyond the protected sites, focussing on the sites.
