- This paper examines the nature of public involvement in Integrated Catchment Management, a core component of the ‘catchment based approach’ to river management adopted by the Environment Agency across England. The findings of the paper identify barriers to effective participatory working which arise from both inter- and supra-catchment drivers, and act to undermine the participatory principles of the catchment based approach. Overcoming these barriers is a key challenge to fully implementing the catchment based approach, and adopting the more participatory approaches to environmental management required by legislation such as the EU Water Framework Directive.
