This is the proposed creation of a single carriageway between the A428 Harlestone Road (National Ordnance grid reference SP 71323 63469) and the A5199 Northampton Road (National Ordnance grid reference SP 73381 65336), hereafter referred to as ‘the Site’. A 50 m buffer zone around the Site was surveyed where possible (the Site and buffer combined are hereafter referred to as ‘the Survey Area’). 1.1.2 The Northampton NWRR will form part of the ring around the northern sector of Northampton. The Northampton NWRR will ultimately connect the A4500 Weedon Road and M1 Junction 16 to the west with the A43 Kettering Road and Kettering to the north). The Northampton NWRR will hereafter be referred to as the ‘Proposed Development’. This PEA aims to inform the promotion of the Proposed Development. 1.1.3 A field survey was undertaken during July 2017 to identify habitats present and assess the Site’s potential to support protected and/or notable habitats and species. A desk study was also undertaken in support of the appraisal to look for nearby statutory designated sites that may be relevant to the proposals. 1.1.4 Within 1 km of the Site numerous records were returned for amphibians, invertebrates, mammals, plants and birds. These included more notable species such as otter Lutra lutra, badger Meles meles, grass snake Natrix natrix, at least eight species of bat, and birds such as kingfisher Alcedo atthis, red kite Milvus milvus and woodcock Scolopax rusticola. Within the Survey Area a number of priority habitats exist including areas of deciduous woodland, primarily in the southern section of the Survey Area; a narrow strip of lowland fen, which runs through the centre of the Survey Area; and an area of coastal and floodplain grazing marsh, which is in the centre of the Survey Area. 1.1.5 Hedgerows within the Survey Area have the potential to be of importance with regards to the Hedgerows Regulations (1977). In addition, habitats present within the Survey Area have the potential to support protected species. These include bats, badger, otter, water vole, birds (including Schedule 1 species), reptiles and amphibians. As a result, further survey is required to assess the likely impact of the Proposed Works on these species groups and to assess the protection status of the hedgerows. The results of these surveys will be used to provide any specific recommendations for impact avoidance, mitigation and enhancement required for the Proposed Works to proceed in line with the relevant legislation and policy. 1.1.6 Under the protection provided by The Habitats Regulations the Proposed Development must be screened by the Local Planning Authority to determine whether significant impacts are likely to affect the Upper Nene Valley Gravel Pits SSSI. If the local authority is unable to conclude that significant effects are not likely, the Proposed Development must be subject to additional assessment in accordance with the Habitats Regulations. 1.1.7 The baseline conditions described in this report are accurate at the time at which the survey was undertaken. Should considerable time pass (e.g. 2+ years) and/or conditions/land-use on the Site change prior to the commencement of works, it is recommended that an update survey is undertaken. North West Relief Road WSP Northamptonshire County Council 70032086 August 2017 2 2 INTRODUCTION 2.1 BACKGROUND PROJECT BACKGROUND 2.1.1 WSP was instructed by Northamptonshire County Council (NCC) to undertake a Preliminary Ecological Appraisal (PEA) of the ‘Option 1’ route of the Northampton North West Relief Road (NWRR). 2.1.2 This includes the creation of a single carriageway between the A428 Harlestone Road (National Ordnance grid reference SP 71323 63469) and the A5199 Northampton Road (National Ordnance grid reference SP 73381 65336), and will include the creation of a bridge over the Rugby to Milton Keynes railway and three roundabouts south of the railway, hereafter referred to as ‘the Site’. A 50 m buffer zone around the Site was surveyed, where possible (the Site and buffer combined are hereafter referred to as ‘the Survey Area’). 2.1.3 Surrounding land uses include arable land, horse pasture, woodland, the newly constructed Harlestone Manor residential area and the Brampton Heath Golf Centre. The Site lies on the outskirts of Northampton (to the north-west of the town) and is approximately 4 km in length, passing through flood plain near the River Nene tributary for part of its length and also crossing the Northampton Loop railway line. 2.1.4 The Northampton NWRR will form part of the ring around the northern sector of Northampton. The Proposed Development will ultimately connect the A4500 Weedon Road and M1 Junction 16 to the west with the A43 Kettering Road and Kettering to the north. This PEA aims to inform the promotion of the Proposed Development. 2.2 SCOPE OF REPORT 2.2.1 NCC commissioned WSP to complete a PEA of the Survey Area in May 2017. The brief was: to provide baseline ecological information about the Survey Area, with particular reference to whether legally protected and/or notable sites, species or habitats are present or likely to be present; to provide recommendations to enable compliance with relevant nature conservation legislation and planning policy; and if necessary, to identify the need for avoidance, mitigation, compensation or enhancement measures and/or further ecological surveys. 2.3 RELEVANT LEGISLATION AND POLICY 2.3.1 The appraisal has been compiled with reference to the following relevant nature conservation legislation, planning policy and the UK Biodiversity Framework from which the protection of sites, habitats and species is derived in England. The context and applicability of each item is explained as appropriate in the relevant sections of the report and additional details are presented in Appendix A.

Muus Erik J. van Nieukerken TREFWOORDEN Faunistiek, nieuwe waarneming, provincies, areaaluitbreidingen Entomologische Berichten 73 (3): 91-117 In de jaren 2007-2010 werden maar liefst elf soorten kleine vlinders nieuw voor onze fauna gevonden: Infurcitinea teriolella, Bucculatrix ulmifoliae, Caloptilia fidella, Phyllonorycter issikii, Coleophora motacillella, Cochylis molliculana, Cnephasia sedana, Clepsis dumicolana, Lobesia botrana, Pseudococcyx tessulatana en Evergestis aenealis.

Na 30 jaar van jaarlijsten geven we een evaluatie, met onder andere een totaal van 128 nieuw gemelde soorten. Dit zijn er minder dan in Denemarken, maar meer dan op de Britse Eilanden of in Zweden.

  • Northampton Local Plan
    CASTELLO FORTIOR CONCORDIA NORTHAMPTON BOROUGH COUNCIL NORTHAMPTON LOCAL PLAN 1993-2006 ADOPTED JUNE 1997 WRITTEN STATEMENT Indicating Saved Policies as amended by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government September 2007 David Moir Director of Environment Services June 1997 FOREWORD Northampton is rapidly developing town - fortunate in having within its boundary a blend of old and new. It combines a historic town centre, former village communities, modern housing areas and a diverse range of employers with parks and open spaces which extend right into the heart of the town. It is an environment of which we are proud. Almost thirty years ago Northampton was designated a new town and under the auspices of the Development Corporation, Northampton expanded significantly through the implementation of the Northampton Master Plan. The momentum of growth remains, but it is important to ensure that future development adds to the quality of the environment in Northampton. The adopted Local Plan forms the basis for all decisions relating to land use within the Borough. It reflects many comments and representations made during its preparation as well as taking on board the recommendations of a Planning Inspector appointed by the Department of Environment following a Public Inquiry into remaining objections. The Plan aims to guide the further expansion of Northampton. It seeks to conserve important open spaces, encourage a balanced mix of residential, business and leisure development and promote good sustainable transport initiatives. In essence it seeks to produce an environment which enhances Northampton for the benefit of all. In conclusion, I wish to pay tribute to the late Councillor Roger Alder who steered the Plan through the majority of its stages as chair of the Planning Committee.

    Lancashire, Manchester and Merseyside Butterfly and Moth Recording Report 2011 Laura Sivell Graham Jones Stephen Palmer 1 Butterfly Recording Laura Sivell County Butterfly Recorder Record Format More recorders who have computers chose to send their records by email. This is certainly preferred for ease of data input. The new version of Levana now has an excellent import facility, that can convert pages of records in a few seconds. MS Excel, MS Works, or tables in MS Word or tab-text are all acceptable file types. It not only makes my life much easier, it is a joy to use! Please remember to include your name in the file name of your records. On days where several different recorders send a file called ‘butterfly records 11’, it’s chaos! It also helps if you include a header with your name on so that your printed records can be easily attributed to you. Woefully few people have taken this on board. Thanks to those that have, it takes so little to bring joy and relief to this poor recorder. Any recorders with computers but not currently sending their records electronically, please consider doing so. Even if you don’t have email, records can be sent on disc.

  • Neighbourhood Plan, Following Earlier Input from Local People, Businesses and Other Organisations Which Have Shaped It
    Made Version December 2015 Foreword This is the final Made Version of the Duston Neighbourhood Plan, following earlier input from local people, businesses and other organisations which have shaped it. This version contains a summary of the evidence base, the Vision & Objectives, Planning Policies and other Community Proposals and details on implementation. Several background and evidence documents are also available: - The Consultation Statement: This describes how local people, businesses and other bodies have been consulted on the Plan and comments, which have been made. - The Basic Conditions Statement: This explains how the Plan meets legal requirements and it also includes the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) screening. In addition, the Issues & Options Report & Parish Profile, the Policy Context, Townscape Study, reports on open space and employment are available on request as separate documents. For those who want to know a little more about the Made Plan and how it fits into the planning system, the following summary may be helpful. Neighbourhood Plans are part of the new planning system, which was introduced by the Government under the Localism initiative. This was to give people a greater say about the location and scale of development in the area and to help to protect valued landscape and community assets. They can establish general planning policies for the development and use of land. The Neighbourhood Plan forms part of the Local Development Plan for the local authority and will be used to consider planning applications. The Made Plan can influence the choice of sites and the design and layout of new housing; Neighbourhood Plans cannot propose less development than in the approved Local Plan and must reflect national planning guidance.
