Biodiversity action is already a key part of waterway management - and British Waterways has produced guidance documents on how to develop this into Waterway Biodiversity Action Plans.
There are two documents - an Introductory document and an accompanying Biodiversity Manual.
The introductory brochure introduces British Waterways' biodiversity action plan framework and describes the many habitats and species that make up waterway biodiversity. These vary from obscure and exciting rarities such as grass-wrack pondweed and floating water plantain to more familiar and well-loved species such as water voles, dragonflies and mute swans.
