Development Management Report
Committee and date South Planning Committee 19 December 2017 Development Management Report Summary of Application Application Number: 17/03661/EIA Parish: Sheriffhales Proposal: Proposed new access & installation of processing plant to facilitate sand & gravel extraction on adjacent Woodcote Wood site Site Address: Woodcote Wood, Weston Heath, Shropshire Applicant: NRS Limited Case Officer: Graham French email: [email protected] Recommendation:- Grant Permission subject to the conditions and legal obligations set out in Appendix 1. Contact: Tim Rogers (01743) 258773 Woodcote Wood, Weston Heath, Shropshire Planning Committee – 19 December 2017 (17/03661/EIA) REPORT 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 Woodcote Wood is identified as a ‘preferred area’ for sand and gravel extraction in the Shropshire Telford and Wrekin Minerals Local Plan (1996-2006). The policies of this plan are currently ‘saved’ in Telford and Wrekin and have been superseded in the Shropshire Council administrative area by the Shropshire Core Strategy and the SAMDev plan. 1.2 The planning committee of the former Shropshire County Council resolved to approve proposals to extract sand and gravel at Woodcote Wood at its meeting on 25/7/06 (ref. SC/MB2005/0336/BR). The proposals involve extraction of 2.55 million tonnes of sand and gravel at a rate of approximately 200,000 tonnes per annum, giving an operational life of some 13 years. The approval resolution was subject to a legal agreement covering off site highway matters and other issues. 1.3 The proposals involved access via a proposed new roundabout at the junction of the A41 and the Sheriffhales Road. However, the third party land required to construct the roundabout was not made available. -

Canoe and Kayak Licence Requirements
Canoe and Kayak Licence Requirements Waterways & Environment Briefing Note On many waterways across the country a licence, day pass or similar is required. It is important all waterways users ensure they stay within the licensing requirements for the waters the use. Waterways licences are a legal requirement, but the funds raised enable navigation authorities to maintain the waterways, improve facilities for paddlers and secure the water environment. We have compiled this guide to give you as much information as possible regarding licensing arrangements around the country. We will endeavour to keep this as up to date as possible, but we always recommend you check the current situation on the waters you paddle. Which waters are covered under the British Canoeing licence agreements? The following waterways are included under British Canoeing’s licensing arrangements with navigation authorities: All Canal & River Trust Waterways - See www.canalrivertrust.org.uk for a list of all waterways managed by Canal & River Trust All Environment Agency managed waterways - Black Sluice Navigation; - River Ancholme; - River Cam (below Bottisham Lock); - River Glen; - River Great Ouse (below Kempston and the flood relief channel between the head sluice lock at Denver and the Tail sluice at Saddlebrow); - River Lark; - River Little Ouse (below Brandon Staunch); - River Medway – below Tonbridge; - River Nene – below Northampton; - River Stour (Suffolk) – below Brundon Mill, Sudbury; - River Thames – Cricklade Bridge to Teddington (including the Jubilee -

611 ARCHAEOLOGY IN SUFFOLK 2015 compiled by FAYE MINTER with object drawings by DONNA WREATHALL THIS IS A selection of the new discoveries reported in 2015. Information on these has been incorporated into the Suffolk Historic Environment Record (formerly the Sites and Monuments Record), which is maintained by the Archaeological Service of Suffolk County Council at Bury St Edmunds. Where available, the Record number is quoted at the beginning of each entry. The Suffolk Historic Environment Record is now partially accessible online via the Suffolk Heritage Explorer web pages (https://heritage.suffolk.gov.uk/) or the Heritage Gateway (www.heritagegateway.org.uk). This list is also available on the Suffolk Heritage Explorer site and many of the excavation/evaluation reports are now also available online via the Archaeological Data Service (http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archives/view/greylit/). Most of the finds are now being recorded through the national Portable Antiquities Scheme, the Suffolk part of which is also based in the Archaeological Service of Suffolk County Council. Further details and images of many of the finds can be found on the Scheme’s website (http://finds.org.uk/database) and for many of the finds listed here the PAS reference number is included in the text. During 2015 the PAS finds in Suffolk were recorded by Andrew Brown, Anna Booth and Faye Minter. Following requests from metal detector users, we have removed all grid references from entries concerning finds reported by them. We continue to be grateful to all those who contribute information for this annual list.

Littleport Scrapbook 1897-1990 by Mike Petty Littleport Scrapbook 1897-1990 Extracts from ‘A Cambridgeshire Scrapbook’, compiled by Mike Petty 16 Nov 2016 Introduction Each evening from March 1997 to March 2015 I compiled a ‘Looking Back’ column in the Cambridge News in which I feature snippets from issues of 100, 75, 50 and 25 years ago. I sought out unusual items relating to villages and areas of Cambridge not usually featured These stories are from issues of the Cambridge Daily/Evening/Weekly News of 1897-1990 I can supply actual copies of many of these articles – please contact me. The full set of articles, numbering over 3,000 pages is available at bit.ly/CambsCollection The newspapers are held in the Cambridgeshire Collection together with other Cambridge titles back to 1762. They have a variety of indexes including a record of stories for every village in Cambridgeshire between 1770-1900 and newspaper cuttings files on 750 topics from 1958 to date. I initiated much of the indexing and have many indexes of my own. Please feel free to contact me for advice and assistance. For more details of newspapers and other sources for Cambridgeshire history see my website www.mikepetty.org.uk This index was produced as a part of my personal research resources and would benefit by editing. If you can make any of it work for you I am delighted. But remember you should always check everything! Please make what use of it you may. Please remember who it came from Mike Petty.

Detailed Assessment of NO2 at South Killingholme
Local Authority Dr Matthew Barnes Officer Department Environmental Health (Commercial) Church Square House Scunthorpe Address North Lincolnshire DN15 6XQ Telephone 01724 297336 e-mail [email protected] Date January 2016 Report Status Final Report 1 Executive summary North Lincolnshire Council’s Air Quality Progress Report 2011 identified a possible exceedance of nitrogen dioxide alongside the A160 in South Killingholme. For this reason, in October 2013 North Lincolnshire Council installed an air quality monitoring site to more accurately measure nitrogen dioxide, nitric oxide and nitrogen oxides at this location. Nitric oxide (NO) is mainly derived from road transport emissions and other combustion processes. Nitric oxide is not considered to be harmful to health, however, once emitted to the atmosphere it is rapidly oxidised to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) which can be harmful to health. NO2 can irritate the lungs and lower resistance to respiratory infections. Continued exposure to concentrations above the recommended air quality objectives may cause increased incidence of acute respiratory illness in children. The main source of NO2 is from road traffic emissions. At South Killinghome the principle source is from vehicles using the A160 dual-carriage way, which provides access to the Port of Immingham, local refineries and power stations. It is also the main route to the proposed Able Marine Energy Park, a deep water quay and manufacturing facility for the offshore wind energy industry. To provide better access to the Port of Immingham and surrounding area, the Highways Agency are upgrading both the A160 and A180. It is anticipated that 1 construction will take approximately 16 months and should be completed by Autumn 2016. -

Dorset Council's Plan 2020
Dorset Council’s Plan 2020 - 2024 DRAFT Introduction This is the Dorset Council plan which sets out our ambitions for the next four years. It incorporates the political vision of your new councillors. Our ambition is to put Dorset Council at the heart of the community. The creation of the new council on 1 April 2019 Local Government has enabled us to make significant savings which Reorganisation have been reinvested into council services: Dorset was served by nine councils until 1 April 2019 • the reduction in the number of councillors from 204 when a local government reorganisation reduced these to 82 has produced £400,000 per year in savings to two: • the reduction in the number of senior manager roles, • Dorset Council and staffing costs in areas of duplication like finance, (formerly Dorset County Council, East Dorset District HR, and IT will achieve savings of £5.2m in 2019/20 Council, North Dorset District Council, Purbeck District and £10m per year in a full council year Council, West Dorset District Council, Weymouth & Portland Borough Council) • the reduction of costs for insurance, audit fees and other activities where the council now only pays for • Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council one organisation rather than six. (formerly Bournemouth Borough Council, Christchurch Borough Council, Borough of Poole Council) Despite this, the council faces significant financial challenges mainly due to growing demand for: Why did we come together to form a new unitary council? • support for children with special educational needs and disabilities • To protect frontline services by reducing costs and duplication. The money saved is being reinvested • the rising number of children taken into care to keep into services including housing, road maintenance, them safe from immediate risk of harm schools, social care and waste collection. -
