Funding Period2008 - 2012
Budget (Overall/EU)3.8 million Euros
Project descriptionThe WATER project (Wetted Land: the Assessment, Techniques & Economics of Restoration) will develop a market based catchment restoration scheme which will be based on a Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) model and aims to identify both delivery and funding mechanisms to lever private investment for catchment restoration by: 1. Developing a substantive Channel wide cooperation network that identifies our shared common identities and problems and can deliver environmental restoration of wetted land within a river catchment in a cost effective way. 2. Develop a set of five robust cost/benefit guides that demonstrate how investment from private companies in catchment restoration can make a long-term impact on their profitability and competitiveness, in line with the Lisbon agenda, and ensure the sustainable development of the environment, in line with the Gothenburg agenda. Simply put, the people and businesses that benefit from good ecosystem function will pay directly the people who deliver good ecosystem function. They will do this because they have a clear understanding of the economic, social and environmental benefits as demonstrated by the WATER project.

Funding ProgrammeNorth West Europe Programme (IVB)
Lead contact/ organisationSomerset County Council
Other EU PartnersWaterschap Regge en Dinkel [NL] Wasserverband Eifel-Rur [DE] Waterschap Groot Salland [NL] Vlaamse Milieumaatschappij (VMM) [BE] Institution d' Aménagement de la Vilaine [FR]
Funding Period2008 - 2011
Budget (Overall/EU)11 million Euros
Project descriptionThe parties involved in WAVE have the responsibility to adapt water management to the changing climate. One of the measures to be taken is to assure that catchment areas are climate proof. This means to protect the inhabitants against floods and assuring sufficient water in times of drought. This is a challenging goal in a society that is faced with increasing urbanization and in which the pressure on available space is enormous. It implies the need for cooperation with traditional partners like provinces and communities, but also with relatively new partners and stakeholders like inhabitants, companies, nature organisation, recreational organisations and farmers (territorial challenge).
