CSF MOA River Nidd

• (A)Catchment Sensitive Farming (CSF) is a partnership project between Natural England, Environment Agency and Defra set up to meet the requirements of the Water Framework Directive. CSF delivers advice on reducing diffuse water pollution from agriculture to farmers in over 70 priority catchments in England through a network of Catchment Sensitive Farming Officers. CSF extends its advice programme outside the priority catchments through a series of catchment partnerships (formerly known as regional strategic partnerships) in particular catchments identified by the River Basin District Liaison Panels as being at risk of diffuse water pollution from agriculture.

The partnership covered by this Memorandum will operate within the catchment of the River Nidd, including the upper and the lower Nidd (formerly part of the adjacent Yorkshire Ouse, Nidd and Swale catchment).
