7 Conservation Plan Project

8 Non – owned catchment: Woodhead

9 MoorLIFE Woodhead Estate East of Bleaklow Head, possibly the most degraded upland peat in Europe and it is in a National Park

10 Woodhead project Poor raw water quality 43,000cu Metres of sediment per year flood risk due to rapid surface drainage failing to meet SSSI target condition major carbon source poor agricultural productivity

11 Moors for the Future Non – owned catchment: Woodhead Gully Blocking : can be over 3m deep, 139 km of gullies will be blocked. Brash Spreading: The area of bare peat is estimated to be 50 hectares. Includes cutting, delivery and spreading of heather brash onto the bare peat areas. Bare peat re-vegetation: spreading chopped up heather brash, on steeper slopes a geo textile material is required. Then a nurse grass seed is sown with successive additions of lime and fertilizer for four out of the first five years Plug Plants: These are small plants, mainly Eriophorum angustifolium, Eriophorum vaginatum and Empetrum nigra. Hydro-seeding: Hydro-seeding seeds of Calluna vulgaris, Erica tetralix, Erica cinerea and Vaccinium myrtillus by helicopter of cleaned seed. Sphagnum: helicopter application, in suspension, of embryonic plants of 5 Sphagnum species and Polytrichum commune.

12 Moors for the Future Sphagnum propagation

13 ….and the MoorLIFE project will significantly improve all these issues
