The project was part of, and built upon, a wider initiative developed by Environment Agency Wales, working in partnership with others to employ a holistic approach to managing water quality. Two new officer posts were created to deliver the project and these were supported by a steering group comprising representatives of the three partner organisations. The Dŵr Cymru WFD Project Funding scheme provided £100,000 to the project with an additional £30,000 contributed by Environment Agency Wales (replaced by Natural Resources Wales).

  • Report of Environment, Planning and Countryside Committee on the Evidence Taken During Its Review Of
    Cyngor Gwynedd Council Submission only available in Welsh Review of the Implementation and Operation of Technical Advice Note (TAN) 15 By The National Assembly for Wales’s Environment, Planning and Countryside Committee On 15th November 2006 (Deadline 20th October ) Written Evidence By Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council 1 The County Borough Council welcomes this review of the implementation and operation of TAN 15. The Authority is fully committed to addressing the implications of climate change and flood consequences. However, much of the developable land within the County Borough is affected by potential flooding risk. This includes large areas of the coastal urban areas and valley floors extending to the top of the Neath Valley. 2 Where there is a realistic risk of flooding this should be fully investigated before any planning proposal is considered. However, the Environment Agency continues to respond to planning consultations (concerning both Development Plan preparation and planning applications) in a negative and pedantic manner. Despite lengthy and repetitive discussions with the Environment Agency it continued to pursue many objections to the Authority’s UDP. 3 Within the coastal plain and valley areas it can be particularly difficult to identify land that is outside the floodplain and is well located in relation to existing communities, services and facilities. In some instances the boundaries of the TAN maps appear incorrect and the authority considers that in such instances the land could be allocated but with a requirement that any necessary flood consequences assessment is satisfactorily undertaken. At Glynneath Business Park, the Environment Agency maintained an objection to the UDP concerning an employment site that lay partly in zone C2 and partly in zone B.
