Published requirement description

The Environment Agency (EA) and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) operate a large number of monitoring

sites throughout England and Wales. The EA operate six telemetry systems based on old regional

boundaries. The management of these systems is via a national service consisting of three telemetry hubs

each supporting two systems. The management and maintenance of field equipment is carried out in

fourteen area based teams. The EA is in the process of adopting the use of DNP3, WITs DNP3 protocols

and IP packet switched data communications to field telemetry outstations. NRW operate in a similar

manner to the EA, and wish to adapt the use of IP packet switched communication in the future.
