Detail of outcome
The Environment Agency thanks all those who responded to the consultation on updating the programme of measures for Upper Costa Beck.
The Environment Agency has carefully considered the responses in developing the proposed updated programme of measures which were approved by the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on 2 September 2024.
The Environment Agency will continue to review the evidence to understand what, if any, additional actions may be required in Upper Costa Beck to secure compliance with the environmental objectives for the water body.
When ongoing river basin planning work identifies sufficient evidence that additional on-the-ground, site-specific regulatory action is required to meet the environmental objectives for Upper Costa Beck, the Environment Agency will implement those actions.
