About this contract

This project will deliver habitat improvement across Natural England's Shapwick Heath National Nature Reserve (NNR) site through a number of activities. The main aim is to repair and restore the peat hydrology to maintain peat water levels at a height suitable to achieve active peat growth. The main activities to achieve this are: • Removal of trees and scrub from the site to reduce evapotranspiration water loss. • Manage the tussocky vegetation across the site. • Restrict water loss in all man-made drains across the site to reduce surface and sub-surface water loss from the peat resource. • Restrict water loss across areas of slope to reduce surface and sub-surface water loss from the peat resource. • Manage water flows across the site using weirs and dams 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.
