  • The Dee Regulation Scheme - in a Nutshell the River Dee (Afon Dyfrdwy) Rises in the Mountains of Snowdonia National Park, to the West of Bala Lake (Llyn Tegid)
    The Dee Regulation Scheme - in a nutshell The River Dee (Afon Dyfrdwy) rises in the mountains of Snowdonia National Park, to the west of Bala Lake (Llyn Tegid). After flowing through a broad valley to Corwen, it tumbles eastwards through the spectacular Vale of Llangollen before breaching the Welsh foothills, near Bangor-on-Dee and meandering northwards through the Cheshire plain to its tidal limit at Chester Weir. The River Dee is an internationally famous example of river basin management. Through the Dee Regulation Scheme, the river system is managed in a sustainable way to meet many different functions, uses and needs. For example: • water abstracted in its lower reaches for public supply exceeds the combined supply of the reservoirs of the Lake District in England; • the low lying land alongside the river below Bala floods less frequently; • the fishery is preserved and fully considered; • recreational activities have been developed at appropriate locations; • hydro-electric power is generated at Llyn Celyn. Historical developments During dry summer weather, the natural flows of the River Bala sluices Dee are not enough to sustain The Industrial Revolution and public health significant abstractions of problems due to polluted rivers led to more water. But, if excess flood flows demand for water. As a result, numerous can be stored in reservoirs, reservoirs were built in natural valleys during the this water can be released in latter half of the 19th Century. These were based dry weather to boost the low on the direct supply principle, with the relatively river flows. This can enable clean upland reservoir water, following basic continuous water abstraction treatment, being piped to the area of supply.

  • The North Pennines
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE NORTH PENNINES The North Pennines The North Pennines The North Pennines Countryside Character Area County Boundary Key characteristics • An upland landscape of high moorland ridges and plateaux divided by broad pastoral dales. • Alternating strata of Carboniferous limestones, sandstones and shales give the topography a stepped, horizontal grain. • Millstone Grits cap the higher fells and form distinctive flat-topped summits. Hard igneous dolerites of the Great Whin Sill form dramatic outcrops and waterfalls. • Broad ridges of heather moorland and acidic grassland and higher summits and plateaux of blanket bog are grazed by hardy upland sheep. • Pastures and hay meadows in the dales are bounded by dry stone walls, which give way to hedgerows in the lower dale. • Tree cover is sparse in the upper and middle dale. Hedgerow and field trees and tree-lined watercourses are common in the lower dale. • Woodland cover is low. Upland ash and oak-birch woods are found in river gorges and dale side gills, and larger conifer plantations in the moorland fringes. • The settled dales contain small villages and scattered farms. Buildings have a strong vernacular character and are built of local stone with roofs of stone flag or slate. • The landscape is scarred in places by mineral workings with many active and abandoned limestone and whinstone quarries and the relics of widespread lead workings. • An open landscape, broad in scale, with panoramic views from higher ground to distant ridges and summits. • The landscape of the moors is remote, natural and elemental with few man made features and a near wilderness quality in places.

  • Michelle Wright
    Artist Statement: Michelle Wright A site-specific piece about the construction of the reservoir Llyn Celyn, flooding the Tryweryn Valley and demolishing the village of Capel Celyn in the process. This piece is a continuation of an ongoing theme relating to displacement. In this case, the displacement of the village residents to provide water to Liverpool. The events that happened at the time also prompted a strong sense of Welsh Nationalism and calls for Devolution which continue to this day. Inspired by the artist Tim Davis, who uses film, photography and installation to respond to and represent specific sites of interest. Davis also created a piece called Capel Celyn where he cast 5000 wax nails based on a rusty nail found on the bed of Llyn Celyn during a period of drought. Initial focus for this project was on the effects of this controversial scheme on the local community and the protests and rallies that took place against the Tryweryn Dam project. Two mood boards were created using original media photographs to describe the sense of emotion that the project had provoked in the local community. These mood boards were then photographed and the new photographs used to create the Digital Collage that comprises a 5-metre Statement Banner depicting the protests that took place at the time. Additional Banners were also printed as an accompaniment. The photograph “Dirty Laundry” bears reference to the fact that the water contained in Llyn Celyn is used for domestic purposes in Liverpool and beyond. For every gallon of water that arrives from Llyn Celyn at the Huntington Treatment Works in Chester, a gallon is sent to Liverpool to provide water to the Liverpool population for domestic purposes.

  • The Impact of Urban Groundwater Upon Surface Water Quality
    THE IMPACT OF URBAN GROUNDWATER UPON SURFACE WATER QUALITY: BIRMINGHAM – RIVER TAME STUDY, UK. by PAUL AUSTIN ELLIS A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Hydrogeology Group School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences The University of Birmingham December 2002 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT A field-based research study has been undertaken on the River Tame within the industrial city of Birmingham, UK, to understand better the influence of urban groundwater discharge on surface-water quality. The 8 km study reach receives ~6% of its total baseflow (60% of which is groundwater) from the underlying Triassic Sandstone aquifer and flood-plain sediments. An integrated set of surface water and groundwater flow, head and physical/chemical data was collected from installed riverbed piezometers and existing monitoring across the aquifer. Field data and supporting computer modelling indicated the convergence of groundwater flows from the sandstone/drift deposits and variable discharge to the river (0.06 to 10.7 m3d-1m-1, mean 3.6 m3d-1m-1), much of which occurred through the riverbanks.
