  • Appendix 13.2 Marine Ecology and Biodiversity Baseline Conditions
    THE LONDON RESORT PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION REPORT Appendix 13.2 Marine Ecology and Biodiversity Baseline Conditions WATER QUALITY 13.2.1. The principal water quality data sources that have been used to inform this study are: • Environment Agency (EA) WFD classification status and reporting (e.g. EA 2015); and • EA long-term water quality monitoring data for the tidal Thames. Environment Agency WFD Classification Status 13.2.2. The tidal River Thames is divided into three transitional water bodies as part of the Thames River Basin Management Plan (EA 2015) (Thames Upper [ID GB530603911403], Thames Middle [ID GB53060391140] and Thames Lower [ID GB530603911401]. Each of these waterbodies are classified as heavily modified waterbodies (HMWBs). The most recent EA assessment carried out in 2016, confirms that all three of these water bodies are classified as being at Moderate ecological potential (EA 2018). 13.2.3. The Thames Estuary at the London Resort Project Site is located within the Thames Middle Transitional water body, which is a heavily modified water body on account of the following designated uses (Cycle 2 2015-2021): • Coastal protection; • Flood protection; and • Navigation. 13.2.4. The downstream extent of the Thames Middle transitional water body is located approximately 12 km downstream of the Kent Project Site and 8 km downstream of the Essex Project Site near Lower Hope Point. Downstream of this location is the Thames Lower water body which extends to the outer Thames Estuary. 13.2.5. A summary of the current Thames Middle water body WFD status is presented in Table A13.2.1, together with those supporting elements that do not currently meet at least Good status and their associated objectives.

Whether this is the secluded beach that no one else seems to have discovered or the best family run restaurant in the district, visitors gain an immense sense of personal achievement to have found ‘the best, authentic, most unique, secret, unusual and downright bizarre’; and when they take to social media this experience becomes an almost ‘badge of honour’, that all who follow will want to obtain.

  • CRR 446/2002 a Study of the Provision of Health and Safety Information in the Annual Reports of the Top UK Companies
    HSE Health & Safety Executive A study of the provision of health and safety information in the annual reports of the top UK companies Prepared by System Concepts Ltd for the Health and Safety Executive CONTRACT RESEARCH REPORT 446/2002 HSE Health & Safety Executive A study of the provision of health and safety information in the annual reports of the top UK companies Laura Peebles, Ansgar Kupper and Tanya Heasman System Concepts Ltd 2 Savoy Court Strand London WC2R 0EZ This report details the findings of a research project to investigate the quality and quantity of health and safety information found in the annual reports of the top UK companies. At present, publicly listed companies are not legally required to include health and safety matters in their annual reports. The current Health and Safety Commission (HSC) Strategy Statement, however, contains an action point which focuses on public reporting of health and safety issues by larger companies. The aim is to promote the reporting of health and safety information in company annual reports and to provide guidance that would allow reporting of such information to a common standard. To assist the HSC with this strategy, System Concepts were commissioned by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to undertake an investigation of the provision of health and safety information in company annual reports. The study comprised a series of steps. The main objectives of the study were: i) To determine the current level of reporting of health and safety issues in annual reports of the top UK companies ii) To determine the quality of health and safety information reported.
