't.2 The areas of potentialenvironmental enhancement have been identifiedbased on informationprovided from a corelist of consultees,particularly the ForestryCommission. The key englneeringworks required for the navigationto be reopenedbetween Brandon and Thetfordhave been identified. 1.4 Budgetcosts and benefitsfor theseproposals have been determined; the costsare in the regionof f6.5 to €7.5million. 1.5 An assessmentof the economicbenefits has beencarried out for a rangeof scenarios. The medium(intermediate) case scenarios suggest that the navigationproposals would yiefda positiveNPV after approximate$ 2A b 25 years. Thereis scopeto restorethe floodplain in the vicinityof Two MileBottom and to a lesser extentSanton Downham. However, the affectof increasedlevels on the flooddefence aspectshas not beenfully examined at this stage. Investigationswould be neededto determinethe potentialaffects of navigationon river flowsdue to increasedwater levels, and confirmthe technicalfeasibility of the proposals. 1.8 Furtherenvironmental studies are requiredto identifythe presenceof protectedspecies alongthe rivercorridor and considerthe effectsof extendingthe navigationto Thetford.In addition,consideration should be givento the effectsof navigationon riverbank stability fromwave action.These issues would need to be addressedunder the environmental mitigationproposals for the scheme.

Limitations on the size of boatsthat can navigateto Brandonare as follows: r Limited headroom of approximately2]m at the railway bridge downstreamof Brandonlock. Thereis limitedwidth, length, depth and headroomat BrandonLock (4m wide,14m long,1.2m deep and 2m headroom). 2.1.4 Boatscurrently have access from the riverLittle Ouse to the riverGreat Ouse, where they can navigatenorth to the DenverSluice complex or south towardsEly. Accessto this watenruaysystem will enable boats using the river Little Ouse to gain access to the proposedFens Waterway Link and Nar OuseNavigation (to King'sLynn). 2.'t.5 The section of the river Little Ouse upstreamof Brandon is not navigabledue to insufficientwater depth in placesand restrictionscaused by existingstructures such as bridgesand gauging weirs. 2.1.6 There is considerableexisting amenity value along the lengthof river betweenBrandon and Thetford,and there are severalenvironmental designations covering this area (see Appendix A). Use is made of the watercoursefor canoeing and there are other recreationaluses of the area. 2.1.7 The ForestryCommission have extensiveresponsibilities for the managementof land adjacentto the river, and are keen to improvethe water level managementso as to improvesome of the existingland uses. Project Aims 2.2.1 The purposeof this schemeis to enhancethe amenitiesprovided from the river Little Ouse and the adjacent area of the Thetford Forest Nature Reserve. The Forestry Commissionis continuallyworking tro enhance the localarea through the reinstatementof natural habitats associatedwith the flood plain. The boating communityis keen to increasethe currentnavigation on the riverLittle Ouse to Thetford.
