About us

The Dee Catchment Partnership is an independant association of agencies, organisations and individuals. We are committed to the wise and sustainable use of the catchment's rivers, tributaries and lochs, as well as the habitats and species they support.

We have been coordinating local stakeholders in the common aim of restoring habitat and water quality throughout the Dee catchment since 2003. Current projects include: the restoration of urban watercourses, reducing pollution from septic tanks, reducing diffuse source pollution, and floodplain restoration.

The development and implementation of the Dee Catchment Management Plan is central to our work. The Dee CMP was launched on 21 November 2007. The Plan has been developed to guiding the management of the catchment's water resources.

The River Dee CMP has brought together representatives of the general public, statutory agencies, research institutions and interest groups.
