The Problem

In this project I'm going to get help from the local council to try and clean the bann river which at this point is an ecological dead zone in some areas mainly due to sewage being ejected out of two pipes into the river and overfishing aswell as people dropping litter into the bann. Where will the sewage go you ask? Well we'll sell it to farmers who need fertilizer and give the rest to a purification facility, we'll also use dredgers to clean litter and plastic and introduce a £50 fine if caught throwing litter in the river then we will introduce plants and fish into the river

Our Plan

Where will the sewage go after the pipes are shut down you ask? Well we'll sell it to farmers who need fertilizer and give the rest to a purification facility, we'll also use dredgers to clean litter and plastic and introduce a £50 fine if caught throwing litter in the river then we will introduce plants and fish into the river.
