caba startup conference 02 - a response to the challenge from the third sector
DESCRIPTION
Sets the context for the Catchment based Approach, describing the decline in ecosystem functionality and the challenge that still faces the UK in achieving improvements under the Water Framework Directive. Outlines the roles of the new CaBA Partnerships, the National Steering group, and the EA in helping to shape the next round of River Basin Managment Plans, and also in achieving improvements that go beyond WFD.TRANSCRIPT

National Ecosystem Assessment:UK benefits of inland wetlands to water quality - up to £1.5billion per year
UK amenity benefits of living close to rivers, coasts and other wetlands - up to £1.3billion per year
INNS one of the 5 primary drivers of change in ecosystem services in the last 60 years...

Making Space for Nature:Recommendation 4.Public bodies and statutory undertakers planning themanagement of water resources should:
• Make space for water and wildlife along rivers and around wetlands;
• Restore natural processes in river catchments, including in ways that support climate change adaptation and mitigation; and
• Accelerate the programme to reduce nutrient overload, particularly from diffuse pollution.
Professor Sir John Lawton

Ecosystem failure means…
Consequences
-ive impacts on water quality
-ive impacts on human health
Loss of biodiversity
Loss of amenity value
-ive impacts on tourism
Flooding/Drought

EU Water Framework Directive Ensuring ‘good ecological status’ by 2015 /2021
will be a major challenge! WFD Public Participation (Article 14)
“Member States shall encourage the active
involvement of all interested parties in
the implementation of this Directive, in particular in the
production, review and updating of the river basin management
plans…”

CaBA Framework
• Defra Policy Framework – ‘to encourage the wider adoption of an integrated CaBA to improving the quality of our water environment’
• Involving the 1st , 2nd & 3rd Sectors in partnership:
• 1st - Government, agencies, local authorities
• 2nd - Water Co’s, farmers, river owners, business
• 3rd – NGO’s, voluntary groups, communities
• Catchment Partnership Groups - providing coordination & guidance
![Page 9: CaBA Startup Conference 02 - A response to the challenge from the third sector](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022013011/5480659bb4af9f967f8b462a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CaBA Framework - considerations• WFD 2nd cycle is important but only
part of the journey
• Some form of map and /or plan is probably necessary to allow catchment targeting and prioritisation
• A plan is a means to an end (delivery of catchment management) not an end in itself!
• Develop strategic relationship with LNP’s, NIA’s, LEP’s

The Ecosystem Approach provides a guide to linking human/ social, ecological and
economic drivers and is a delivery tool of the Convention on Biological Diversity
it’s about people…

The Ecosystem Approach
Managing the environment is really about managing
people…Nature can usually manage
itself…

Developing an integrated catchment approach
Our ultimate goal is to create a catchment plan that is…1. Strategic
Interventions are delivered in a targeted and timely manner to achieve the greatest amount of benefit
2. IntegratedAdopts a variety of different measures tailored to each situation and ecosystem services objective
3. Costed and funded The cost of each intervention is determined and funding
acquired from the most appropriate stakeholder
4. Balanced
Delivers improvements, but not at the expense of food production or economic sustainability

CaBA means that for the first time – the future of our rivers, really is
in your hands!
