Both rivers flow into Poole Harbour, one of the largest and most important features on the south coast. To the east of the Harbour, a thriving port and fishery, a major boating and sailing centre and the towns of Bournemouth and Poole sit side by side with the serenity and rich wildlife of the western harbour and islands. Responsibility for the wellbeing of much of this area lies with the Environment Agency, whose multifarious activities include monitoring the quality of rivers and the quantity of water in them, flood prevention, the safe and proper disposal of waste, regulation of freshwater fisheries, the prevention of pollution and the conservation of aquatic wildlife. This is the Environment Agency's action plan for this area for the next five years, affecting the lives of all who live and work within the catchment and harbour basin. The Agency is grateful to those who have contributed to the plan, and hopes that we can all help to take it forward. Dr John Day Chairman, South Wessex Area Environment Croup of the Environment Agency FROME & PIDDLE AND POOLE HARBOUR & PURBECK LEAP Vision Vision The Government has set out four objectives in its sustainable development strategy, A better quality of life: • social progress that recognises the needs of everyone • effective protection of the environment • prudent use of natural resources • maintenance of high, and stable, levels of economic growth and employment At the heart of this strategy is the integration of human needs and the environment, and the Agency must take a long-term view of environmental management to help achieve the objective of sustainable development. This will mean developing a strong approach to education and influencing others in order to change understanding and behaviour. Our overall objective, within the context of sustainable development, has been to allow for economic growth whilst ensuring that this was not achieved at the expense of failing to maintain and, where necessary, improve the state of our environment. We take as our ultimate measure of success the quality of our natural resources and the abundance and variety of our wildlife. This is translated to the local level through Local Environment Agency Plans or LEAPs which have been developed in collaboration and liaison with our partners and the public, and reflect the integrated approach to our work. The Frome & Piddle and Poole Harbour & Purbeck LEAP area is an area of high quality which is maintained by many organisations, both statutory and voluntary, local interest groups and individual land owners. However, there are areas where there is work to be done in restoring it to an appropriate level in the light of the concept of sustainability. We also need to promote the work of the Agency and how we can work in partnership with others. This is particularly important in the urban areas of Poole, Dorchester, Wareham and Swanage. The LEAP shows our intentions to work towards the: • development and achievement of suitable targets to maintain the diversity of wildlife in both urban and rural areas • maintenance of ecologically acceptable river flows in the LEAP area through in part working with the water company and other abstractors to ensure sustainable supplies which reflect the needs of the environment • maintenance of ecologically acceptable water quality in the LEAP area, through improvements to point source discharges and a reduction in pollution from urban and rural land runoff • use of innovative techniques to ensure that land use does not damage the natural and built environment, especially with regard to pollution, the illegal disposal of waste and the risk of flooding • sustainable and balanced use of the area for quiet enjoyment and recreational uses consistent with the internationally important status of the area • dissemination of environmental information to inform and educate all sectors about the area and wider environmental issues FROME & PIDDLE AND POOLE HARBOUR & PURBECK LEAP Vision • development of existing and new partnerships with interested groups W e undertake work that is required of us by statute and in addition local actions that we undertake if our resources permit. Although the LEAP is not a statutory document it aims to influence other decision-makers and reinforce the Agency message to all those with an interest and an influence in environmental management. Working together will help us to achieve the required targets in a sustainable way for the benefit of all those who use this special area. a FROME & PIDDLE AND POOLE HARBOUR & PURBECK LEAP Contents Contents 1.

  • Church and Churchyard Memorial Inscriptions
    CHURCH AND CHURCHYARD MEMORIAL INSCRIPTIONS St MARY’S CHURCH FROME St QUINTIN INTRODUCTION Transcripts of the memorial stones in the church and churchyard of St. Mary’s Church, Frome St. Quintin were first made in 1986 by members of the Frome Valley History Society, led by Wendy Wright of Holywell House, Holywell.. The work was revised in 2009 by Graham and Jennifer Browne of Frome Farm House, Frome St. Quintin. The transcripts have been made to the best of our ability, bearing in mind the effects of weathering over sometimes quite a long period of time, and we believe them to be a true record of the material at the time of reading. In reading the following transcripts, the slashes represent the end of the line on the tombstone or memorial to guide the readers in finding the actual words for themselves. Where there is doubt about the actual wording due to erosion of the materials, either question marks or dashes will be found. The numbers on the plan reflect those of the typescript records. For further details of the men whose names appear on the two war memorials in the church, refer to the ‘Book of Remembrance’.

  • Alton Pancras Elimination of Stand Alone Source
    www.WaterProjectsOnline.com Water Treatment & Supply Alton Pancras Elimination of Stand Alone Source providing additional security of supply and additional strategic storage within the water distribution network in West Dorset by Joe Edmunds BEng(Hons) ACSM lton Pancras is a borehole source located between Dorchester and Yeovil which historically has on average provided a public water supply (PWS) of just under 2.5Ml/d. The abstraction regime at Alton Pancras has Avaried in recent years as the licence, operating agreement and requirements for stream support have been under review. The PWS licence is currently a simple 4.5Ml/d daily licence and 890Ml annual (2.44Ml/d) licence. Historical production has varied between a maximum weekly supply of around 3.5Ml/d when water is supplied into neighbouring distribution networks to a minimum base load supply of around 1.9Ml/d needed to meet local demands. Whilst the neighbouring distribution networks can be supplied from elsewhere the local demand cannot. This paper summarises the design considerations, construction and commissioning of the Alton Pancras Elimination of Stand Alone Source (ESAS) scheme.
