How to win: Strategic nature-based water quality improvement assessment - Lower Western Cleddau / Asesiad strategol gwella ansawdd dŵr yn seiliedig ar natur - Rhan Ifaf Cleddau Wen

About this contract

Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority invites proposals from consultants to identify and prioritise nature-based intervention opportunities that could contribute to improving water quality in the lower Western Cleddau (and possibly other relevant catchments if feasible within the budget). A transparent, weighted multi-criteria approach will assess water quality benefit, source / pathway / receptor linkages, hydrological connectivity, intervention potential and implementation feasibility. GIS analysis will identify and map pollution sources, pathways, receptors and priority reaches using available datasets. Stakeholder and landowner engagement will support fieldwork access, inform feasibility and foster future implementation support. Targeted walkovers will ground-truth and refine the assessment, identifying opportunities and constraints not evident from desk-based information. Outputs will include an updateable GIS opportunity and prioritisation database, mapbook, narrative report and selected case studies / scenarios. The assessment should distinguish between strategic priorities and actionable opportunities and briefly consider future nutrient mitigation / credit potential
