Buglife, a conservation charity, wants a contractor to restore and re-wet peatland at Easter Fannyside Muir and Garberthill Muir, both protected wildlife sites. The estimated value is £139,000. The work involves blocking drains and reshaping the peat edges so the ground holds water again.
What the buyer wants
• Block drains and reprofile (reshape) the peat edges at Easter Fannyside Muir and Garberthill Muir • Build bunds (earth banks), wave dams and wood dams to restore the peatland's water levels • Carry out the zipping element named in the notice, which the notice does not explain further
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any qualifications, experience, insurance or certification requirements, but the work is on a Special Protection Area and Site of Special Scientific Interest, and the notice gives no detail on how it must be carried out there.
Always check the tender documents.
