The South Hams River Improvement Project (SHRImP) was a Catchment Restoration Funded Project, which was administered by the Environment Agency. The project was
written and delivered by the Westcountry Rivers Trust in association with the South Devon Catchment Partnership. The project lasted three years (2012-2015), with the primary aim of delivering targeted action to make significant steps towards achieving Water Framework Directive (WFD) waterbody objectives set out in the 2009 River Basin Management Plans.
This report documents the works delivered under the SHRImP and describes how these works were targeted to ensure that efficient on the ground management was delivered effectively throughout the catchment. Although the SHRImP has completed its final year, the work that has been delivered and the valuable information and data that has been collected will provide a solid foundation to build upon in the future.
