Richborough Stream (east), Stour Marshes: decision about designation change

Details

The Environment Agency consults the public about proposals to change whether a river or stream is designated as a main river. Main rivers are usually larger rivers and streams. The Environment Agency carries out maintenance, improvement or construction work on main rivers to manage flood risk.

For the Richborough Stream (east) stretch of Main River, the Environment Agency has published:

• the proposal for change notice (consultation now closed)
• the designation change decision (appeals now closed)

The designation change to the Main River stretch of the Richborough Stream (east) will be applied to the Statutory Main River Map on Wednesday 31 July 2019.

These notices will tell you:

• what changes the Environment Agency is proposing
• why the Environment Agency is proposing the changes
• how you can comment on the proposals

This change is part of the rationalising the main river network: de-maining proposals consultation.
