  • Evidence Review of the Trophic Status of the Milford Haven Waterway
    Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of the available evidence relating to the trophic status of the Milford Haven waterway and to recommend whether a case for designation as a Polluted Water (Eutrophic) should be made under the terms of the Nitrates Directive. The report reviews available data and compliance with other relevant European directives. The EC Nitrates Directive (91/676/EEC) requires that waters which are eutrophic due to nitrates derived from agricultural sources, or are at risk of becoming so unless preventative action is taken, must be identified as Polluted Waters (Eutrophic) and areas of land draining into these waters, and which contribute to their nitrogen pollution, must be designated as Nitrate Vulnerable Zones (NVZs). Opportunistic macroalgae, phytoplankton and nutrient data have been reviewed in this and previous studies undertaken for the Nitrates, Urban Waste Water Treatment and Water Framework (WFD) directives. Milford Haven waterway is at Moderate status and hypernutrified compared to WFD nutrient standards. Phytoplankton blooms do not occur in the waterway, but within the sheltered bays and inlets there is widespread and often dense growth of opportunistic macroalgae species, primarily Ulva sp. Evidence from WFD monitoring in the Milford Haven Inner water body shows that dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) levels are Moderate and this is reflected in the opportunistic macroalgae classification, which also achieves Moderate status. Therefore, this transitional water body is currently failing to meet Good status, which is required for WFD compliance by 2027. The WFD DIN classification demonstrates that the waters of the Milford Haven Outer water body are also at Moderate status and are hyper-nutrified according to WFD standards, but assessments did not demonstrate failures of phytoplankton or opportunistic macroalgae quality elements at water body level.

The proposed development lies within the Milford Haven Waterway Landscape of Outstanding Historic Interest (HLW (D) 3). The proposed development site currently comprises the derelict remains of the RNAD depot, which include several large standing buildings of mid-20th century date, along with a partially cleared area within the former Oil Refinery and adjacent dis-used car park and agricultural land. 16.2 ASIDOHL Methodology In assessing the impact of the proposed development, guidelines are laid out in ‘Guide to Good Practice on Using The Register Of Landscapes Of Historic Interest In Wales In The Planning And Development Process’ (Revised 2nd Edition) which includes revisions to the assessment process (ASIDOHL2).

  • The Secret Waterway (Eng)
    secret waterway eng:newport walks/2 17/3/08 08:52 Page 1 THE SECRET WATERWAY secret waterway eng:newport walks/2 17/3/08 08:52 Page 2 The Secret Waterway The Milford Haven Waterway has been described as one of the finest natural harbours in the world. It is internationally famous as a classic example of a Ria, a drowned valley. Millions of years ago, when the sea level was much lower than today, a river valley was formed along a fault line in the rock. At the end of the Ice Age, melting ice sheets released immense amounts of water to deepen the valley. As the sea level rose the valley flooded. This broad sweep of water, sinuously curving its way into the heart of Pembrokeshire, has played a vital role in the history and fortunes of its people. Invaders and pirates have sought shelter in its hidden bays and creeks; medieval castles and Victorian forts dominate its shores; ancient villages and modern ports play host to ferries, fishing craft, oil tankers and yachts. The waterway also features landscapes of remarkable contrast. To the east of the Cleddau Bridge run the waters of the Daugleddau, meaning two Cleddaus, because here the eastern and western branches of the river meet. Its banks are clothed in ancient woodlands, birds call from quiet, sheltered inlets and the sense of tranquillity is profound. To the west of the Bridge, as it approaches the sea, the waterway widens. Here are busy townships, modern industries and historic fortifications, yet in all the hustle and bustle there are peaceful places here too.

    PEMBROKESHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL CYNGOR SIR BENFRO Hubberston Church in Wales V.C. Nursery and Primary School School Prospectus 2016-2017 Welcome from the Acting Executive Head teacher, Mr Nicholas Dyer Welcome to Hubberston Church in Wales VC Nursery and Primary School. We hope that you find the information contained in this prospectus useful and helpful. If your child joins our school, we trust that he/she will be happy here and will make good progress. Our school staff and governors work hard to achieve this goal. We believe children learn best in a friendly, caring and positive environment where everyone is given the chance to succeed. This means having the confidence and courage to ‘have a go’ and be just as prepared to fail as to succeed, as we all learn from both outcomes. We strive towards “partnership” in the fullest sense involving staff, children, parents and governors in the educational process. By the age of eleven we hope that our pupils will be confident, self-assured and responsible young people ready to take on the challenge of their secondary school. Christian and community values are at the heart of all we do. Personal, moral, social and emotional development supports learning across the whole curriculum, as well as learning for life. We work closely with parents to ensure a coordinated and secure environment for children to learn and grow. Parents are welcome to take the opportunities through Springboard to learn alongside their child as part of this positive relationship.

Scattered small woodland clumps and occasional villages including East Williamston, Broadmoor, Sageston and Begelly/Kilgetty, Pentlepoir, Wooden are connected by major roads and a network of hedgebank bordered lanes. Key Characteristics The geological landscape is an extensive area of undulating terrain, dissected by stream systems over an outcrop of Carboniferous shales and sandstones (mainly Coal measures) with previous 94 Pembrokeshire Landscape Character Assessment glacial and periglacial processes leaving valley deposits and drift filled basins in areas. Small areas of Carboniferous limestone are located to the east and include former quarries and borrow pits. The settlement pattern is largely dispersed. Larger settlements including Sageston, Begelly and Kilgetty are concentrated along the main road network of the A477. These are partly associated with previous mining and more recently tourism. Away from main roads, small settlements, isolated farmsteads and dwellings are scattered across the rural landscape. The landscape forms an extensive area of similar character of generally smaller, grazed fields intersected by visually attractive tall hedgebank and hedgerow bordered lanes and includes more intensely developed areas associated with main roads. Some areas form agricultural and woodland mosaic particularly towards the west where conifer plantations form woodland blocks and mature trees feature within mature hedgerows.
