About
The Lower Arun operational catchment stretches from Littlehampton to Pulborough. It includes the tidal river Arun, a transitional waterbody, and its freshwater tributaries. The sub-catchment is mix of urban concentrations and open agricultural land. The biggest pressure on the environment in this area is water quality, with impacts from Sewage Treatment Works and diffuse pollution from urban and rural sources. Furthermore, many of the waterbodies within this sub-catchment are small with many being field drains and not suited to WFD classification.
