FH WETLAND SYSTEMS Ltd.

Improving our own wastewater and stormwater is important, but without taking the whole valley into account it is going to have only a limited effect on the overall water quality in our river basin or catchment. Catchment management can be used to maximise the pollution reduction and environmental protection in the whole valley for an integrated approach to improving water quality.

Reintroduction of wetlands within the river basin is one of the most appropriate ways to improve water quality and habitat value of streams and rivers, and is being increasingly practised worldwide for flood control, pollution reduction and habitat enhancement. FH Wetland Systems can offer expertise in catchment management for use in catchment scale projects where full community participation is available. Alternatively individual, site specific stream or river improvement projects can be carried out to improve the water quality of the catchment downstream of that point.
