Project Groundwater - Skottowes Pond - Chesham SuDS

Buckinghamshire Council is exploring organisations that may be interested in supporting the delivery of a Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) and associated environmental improvements of Skottowe's Pond in Lowndes Park, Chesham. The project is being delivered through Project Groundwater and the River Chess Smarter Water Catchment partnership in collaboration with the Chesham Town Council.

Having reviewed your organisation's experience, we believe you may have an interest in supporting the delivery of this project and would therefore like to invite an Expression of Interest. Project Background

Skottowe's Pond is located within Lowndes Park, Chesham, and currently receives highway runoff from surrounding roads including Park Road, Bellingdon Road and St Mary's Way. The project aims to improve water quality within the pond, reduce pollutant loading from surface water runoff, provide biodiversity and habitat enhancements, improve community amenity value and support wider environmental objectives within the River Chess catchment. The project forms part of Buckinghamshire Council's ongoing work to improve resilience to flooding, enhance water quality and deliver wider environmental benefits through sustainable drainage and nature-based approaches.
