Objectives This report has followed the requirements of the Environment Agency’s Water Cycle Study (WCS) guidance and the requirements of the Brief to produce an Outline WCS for the Local Authority areas of Stafford Borough, Lichfield District, Tamworth Borough, South Staffordshire District and Cannock Chase District. As such, it assesses the constraints and requirements that will arise from the scale of the proposed growth on the water infrastructure of southern Staffordshire. The Councils are in the process of preparing their Local Development Frameworks (LDFs), as required by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. To assist with the identification of the potential development sites and settlements most suitable for development, this WCS, through consultation with the Councils, the Environment Agency, Severn Trent Water Limited (STWL) and South Staffordshire Water (SSW) has identified the potential constraints to development within the region. It considers the following issues, addressing the constraints that they may pose to future development and discusses the improvements necessary to achieve the required level of development: • Water Resources; • Water Quality and Environmental Issues; • Water Supply; • Flood Risk; and • Wastewater Collection; • Demand Management • Wastewater Treatment; In addition to assisting the Councils, the WCS process also provides a benefit to the water companies by providing them with a more detailed indication of the potential development within the area.

  • A Cornerstone of the Historical Landscape
    Stourbridge's Western Boundary: A cornerstone of the historical landscape by K James BSc(Hons) MSc PhD FIAP (email: [email protected]) The present-day administrative boundaries around Stourbridge are the result of a long and complex series of organizational changes, land transfers and periods of settlement, invasion and warfare dating back more than two thousand years. Perhaps the most interesting section of the boundary is that to the west of Stourbridge which currently separates Dudley Metropolitan Borough from Kinver in Staffordshire. This has been the county boundary for a millennium, and its course mirrors the outline of the medieval manors of Oldswinford and Pedmore; the Domesday hundred of Clent; Anglo-Saxon royal estates, the Norman forest of Kinver and perhaps the 7th-9th century Hwiccan kingdom as well as post-Roman tribal territories. The boundary may even have its roots in earlier (though probably more diffuse) frontiers dating back to prehistoric times. Extent and Description As shown in figure 1, the boundary begins at the southern end of County Lane near its junction with the ancient road (now just a rough public footpath) joining Iverley to Ounty John Lane. It follows County Lane north-north-west, crosses the A451 and then follows the line of Sandy Lane (now a bridleway) to the junction of Sugar Loaf Lane and The Broadway. Along with County Lane, this section of Sandy Lane lies upon a first-century Roman road that connected Droitwich (Salinae) to the Roman encampments at Greensforge near Ashwood. Past Sugar Loaf Lane, the line of the boundary diverges by a few degrees to the east of the Roman road, which continues on in a straight line under the fields of Staffordshire towards Newtown Bridge and Prestwood.

  • Sow and Penk Internal Drainage Board (IDB) BAP Area Monitoring
    Sow and Penk Internal Drainage Board (IDB) BAP area monitoring River Sow floodplain ©Matt Jones Baseline monitoring February 2016 Introduction The IDB has a direct capacity to exercise control over a number of watercourses within the Sow and Penk area (see Map 1), it is therefore of principal importance to suitably monitor the effect of work carried out on IDB maintained watercourses to assess its impact on the biodiversity of the wider riparian environment. To effectively monitor ecological systems in order to develop and deliver beneficial policies and practices, baseline data must be gathered to provide a benchmark to measure fluctuations in habitats or species populations over time (OECD, 2001), particularly in relation to appropriate habitat management and reducing biodiversity loss. Staffordshire Wildlife Trust has been commissioned to monitor the extent of Water vole Arvicola amphibious and Flowering-rush Butomus umbellatus to help the IDB fulfil its duty conserve biodiversity. Current baseline data A desktop study was carried out using Staffordshire Ecological Records (SER) ecological records database to output all existing records of Flowering-rush B. umbellatus and European Water Vole A. amphibious within the Sow and Penk IDB Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) area. The current available data originates from a number of sources and surveys, notably records from structured surveys and monitoring including, but not limited to Staffordshire Mammal Group surveys, structured surveys carried out by Staffordshire Wildlife Trust and surveys undertaken as part of the data collection for the Flora of Staffordshire (Hawksford, et al., 2011). This data will form a primary baseline from which data collected through future surveys can be compared to monitor populations of A.

  • South Staffordshire Response Cannock Chase Council Supports
    South Staffordshire response Cannock Chase Council supports the continued positive approach to meeting wider Housing Market Area needs and acknowledgment of the necessity to reconsider the levels of provision as the quantity of the shortfall is reviewed on an ongoing basis. It is noted that this stage of the consultation covers housing growth only; is strategic in nature; and that individual site are not yet being considered. However, it is understood that the preferred strategic spatial approach will inform the future selection of development sites and broad locations are identified as part of the Preferred Spatial Strategy Option G. As part of this, it is noted that paragraph 2.7 of the consultation document states ‘the distribution of housing growth proposed in this consultation may alter to reflect specific site opportunities once these are assessed in more detail.’ Cannock Chase Council would welcome continued discussions as part of the site selection process in relation to any potential cross boundary sites and sites that lie in proximity to the Cannock Chase District boundary. It is noted that as part of the indicative preferred spatial strategy there appear to limited levels of additional housing proposed (in addition to existing allocations and safeguarded land) in areas adjacent to Cannock Chase District, primarily at Huntington and Cheslyn Hay/Great Wyrley. As outlined in the Cannock Chase District Local Plan Issues and Options (May 2019) the Council is currently considering options for accommodating its own housing needs, and potentially those of the wider HMA. The document identified that after taking into account the existing urban capacity for development, and the potential capacity arising from the former Rugeley Power Station redevelopment, there would be a shortage against the District’s own housing needs alone (before consideration of wider HMA needs).
