Watercourse Management
Contact
The Council manages its watercourses in two ways:
- Routine control and maintenance activities, including use of our legal powers and responsibilities
- Strategic drainage activities, which are often project based
In both cases the council has to submit a plan which has to be approved by ecologists from the Environment Agency , English Nature amd Charnwood Wildlife before works can commence.
