Description

The objectives are to deliver, by the end of February 2018, a literature and desk based review of approaches to encouraging or requiring improved P stewardship in the water industry that are being used or trialled in other developed countries. The approaches considered should include regulatory and softer options and include novel approaches to the economics such as PES and natural capital accounting. In undertaking this review, assess the potential to successfully apply the various approaches within the UK, notably in the water sector. The review should therefore consider current practices of English water companies and how these might be improved, from a P stewardship perspective, in terms of P removal at STWs and the options for recycling and recovery of P for agricultural and other uses. Identify the scale at which options could apply, pros and cons of the options identified, and barriers to uptake of the options. To aid further communication of the results the contractor should provide a review paper on the work suitable for external publication by the end of the project plus a supporting presentation and slide pack to support internal and external communication by the end of the project.

Additional information: To apply please respond to the attached Invitation to Quote and associated documents. Email your response to [email protected]. Tenders to be received no later than 09:00 on Monday 9 October.
