    • Compile and report profile land uses within the landscape.
    • Assessment of hydrology, peat, wildlife and community engagement.

Key Outcomes:

    • Provide an assessment and update as a whole of SEPPSF in terms of hydrology, peat and wildlife after 20 years.
    • Conduct community engagement and assessment within the landscape.
    • Produce a report profile on land uses of the landscape by using GIS.
