Floating Pennywort is an invasive non-native species. Responsibility for controlling Floating Pennywort generally rests with riparian landowners. The Environment Agency does not have a general legal duty to remove Floating Pennywort wherever it occurs, although it does have powers and discretion to intervene in certain circumstances.

The scale of infestation currently being experienced across parts of the Ely Ouse and associated waterways has developed over several years and has now reached a point where it is affecting navigation and channel availability.

Due to the specialist nature of the work and the scale of the infestation, intervention of this kind requires the Environment Agency to follow its established framework contractor processes. This ensures work is undertaken safely, lawfully and in accordance with procurement and environmental requirements.

In practice, this means that large-scale intervention is generally considered when infestations have become sufficiently significant to justify the mobilisation of specialist contractors and resources.

This process is underway but the timeframe for this is subject to funding, internal and external resources including the availability of suitable contractors.
