NPPP 2022 SEA Scoping Report: Topic 3 Water
This document contains baseline information about water in the Cairngorms National Park as part of a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) scoping exercise for the Park Partnership Plan. It discusses water quality, noting that while point source pollution has been reduced, diffuse pollution is now a concern, and it reviews the status of water bodies in the park. The document also covers water quantity, with the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) monitoring water levels. It touches on water infrastructure, including the capacity of water and waste treatment works, and addresses flooding risks, particularly along the River Spey and River Dee. Finally, it lists proposed SEA objectives related to water resource quality, demand, and the impact of invasive species. The document also poses questions for consultation authorities about any missing information, errors in what is presented, or new relevant projects that may be included as the SEA progresses.
