TENDER DESCRIPTION

The reason for starting the ecohydrological study is the stability problems in the Kikbeek pond, as a result of which water-level rises in order to achieve the conservation objectives currently cannot take place. The ecohydrological study will investigate what the effects are of higher pond water levels (than the current ones) in the Kikbeek quarry on the surrounding groundwater-dependent vegetation. In addition, it will be investigated which additional rewetting measures within the habitat directive area of Mechelse Heide, Ziepbeekvallei, Neerharerheide and Asbeek are necessary in order to arrive at a climate-resilient system. The purpose of the study is to examine the impact on groundwater levels and the ecological boundary conditions resulting from water-level rises in the Kikbeek pond and from hydrological restoration measures in Mechelse Heide, Ziepbeek, Neerharerheide and Asbeek. This must lead to maximising the restoration and conservation of groundwater-dependent vegetation. The objective is to achieve climate-resilient system restoration without putting at risk in the long term critical infrastructure (such as the motorway E314) and the stability of the Berg quarry and…
