  • Appendix a Environmental Baseline
    Appendix A Environmental Baseline . Introduction The data collected to characterise the baseline environment of Telford and Wrekin Borough has been derived from numerous secondary sources, which are referenced as footnotes in this report. No new investigations or surveys have been undertaken. In some instances, it has been noted that different secondary sources present conflicting information and it has not been possible to verify which sources are the most accurate. Where this has been identified, the limitations have been noted. It should be noted that there is an abundance of environmental information available. However, the information presented in this Appendix has been chosen on the basis that it may be influenced or affected by the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy (LFRMS). Steps have been taken to avoid including information which is of no clear relevance to the LFRMS. It may be necessary to collect further data against which to assess the potential environmental effects of the LFRMS with regard to monitoring requirements. Population .. Population The topic of population is considered first in the baseline information, since the over-arching purpose of the LFRMS is to reduce flood risk to people and property. The LFRMS also seeks to increase public awareness of flooding and promote individual and community level flood resilience. A number of properties in the Telford and Wrekin Area are in areas at risk of flooding and were affected by flooding during the Summer 2007 floods. Some of the properties were affected by flooding from fluvial sources (streams, rivers) but many properties were affected from surface water flooding from sewers and drainsi.

  • Advisory Visit Cound Brook, Shropshire June 2020
    Advisory Visit Cound Brook, Shropshire June 2020 Author: Tim Jacklin ([email protected], tel. 07876 525457) 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust to the Cound Brook at Eaton Mascott Estate, Shropshire, on 10th June 2020. Comments in this report are based on observations during the site visit and discussions with the landowner. Normal convention is applied with respect to bank identification, i.e. left bank (LB) or right bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream and downstream references are often abbreviated to u/s and d/s, respectively, for convenience. The Ordnance Survey National Grid Reference system is used for identifying specific locations. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The section of the Cound Brook visited is located approximately 4km upstream of its confluence with the River Severn between Atcham and Cressage, south of Shrewsbury. A section of both the Cound Brook and its tributary the Row Brook were inspected upstream of their confluence. The geology of the area is sedimentary bedrock (Salop Formation – mudstone and sandstone, formed approximately 272 to 310 million years ago in the Permian and Carboniferous Periods1), with superficial deposits of river alluvium and glacial till. Soils in the vicinity are sandy and easily eroded. Combined with potato and maize cultivation, this tends to lead to excessive levels of fine sediment reaching the watercourses. In order to meet the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, the Environment Agency monitor the quality of watercourses using a number of measured parameters including plant, algae, invertebrate and fish populations, along with physical and chemical measures.
