Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS) operates from four geographical localities, each having its own challenges and risk. An overview of each of these localities is taken and then built upon in a more detailed review of each individual fire station area. The individual station risk profiles detail the current operational resources available on each fire station. Details are also be provided in relation to the actual availability of these resources over a recent twelve month period. The types and number of operational responses made by the fire crews on every Fire Station is assessed and an analysis of the casualties as a result of fire or road traffic collisions has been provided. Our prevention activity in terms of the number of Home Fire Safety Visits (HFSV) carried out within each Ward area is considered and all of this information will be looked at critically in order to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operational response. The review builds upon the outcomes from the Intervention Standards Review (www.cumbriafire. gov.uk) and details the new Super Output (SOA) risk profile for each fire station. Attached as an appendix to the review is a retrospective analysis of how the risk in Cumbria has changed since our 2006 IRMP by categorising each SOA using five years of incident data on a ‘roll forward one year’ basis. Our average response/attendance performance to dwelling fires within each of the SOAs is analysed using nine years of incident data. By doing so we will be in a clear position to determine whether our resources are correctly placed to respond to the level of risk identified. The station profiles also consider the actual number of dwelling fires that have occurred in each SOA between 2004/5 and 2008/9 and detail our attendance performance over this five year period. This part of the analysis concentrates on whether we managed to achieve our target attendance times against the risk categories assigned to each ward as part of our 2006 IRMP Ward classifications. As part of any review into risk across a county as large as Cumbria, it is vital to appreciate the geographical dispersion of our fire stations and hence the proximity of the next nearest available supporting fire engines; details are therefore provided for every station and an analysis of the next nearest three fire stations in terms of the road distance and average attendance time the supporting fire engines have taken when responding to dwelling fires over a five year period. Finally, flood risk is considered and industrial, heritage and environmental risks are taken into consideration to provide the final station risk profiles. These reviews will enable CFRS to identify resource requirements and ensure that these resources are strategically positioned around Cumbria to suitably meet the demands for our services. Furthermore, the details will be used to help inform our future prevention and protection strategies and will assist in identifying some of the actions in our 2011-14 IRMP. CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 3 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 Workington Locality: CFRS Workington Locality is situated in the North West of Cumbria and covers both parts of Allerdale Borough Council and Copeland Borough Council. The current population of the Workington Locality is estimated to be 153,952. The minority ethnic group population of Cumbria was estimated in 2007 to be 3.3% overall and the figure for the Workington Locality is probably similar with Allerdale Borough Council having an estimated 2.8% and Copeland 2.7%. The social and economic profile of the Workington Locality is one of contrasts. In Workington and Whitehaven the overall profile of the towns is quite poor, with some wards such as Mirehouse, Sandwith, Moss Bay, St Michaels and Moorclose experiencing significant deprivation on a national scale with very low levels of employment, income, poor health and a poor quality living environment. In contrast in some of the outlying rural areas of the Locality there is more affluence, reasonable income and high levels of employment. However these rural areas have their own challenges of access to services and issues that relate to the number of second home owners and commuters and affordable housing for local people. The key challenges for this area are: For Allerdale Borough Council, to provide affordable housing, to encourage regeneration, to reduce levels of deprivation, to improve skill levels and education, to reduce crime, anti-social behaviour, to improve local transport and levels of recycling. For Copeland Borough Council, to create a sustainable and healthy local economy, to monitor the impact of the nuclear industry, and to tackle social exclusion and deprivation. Risks: The majority of the incidents attended by Fire & Rescue personnel in the locality are in the Workington and Whitehaven areas. Since 2004 the Locality has attended the following incidents: 4 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 WORKINGTON Call Year Incident Type 2004-2005 2005-2006 2006-2007 2007-2008 2008-2009 Dwelling Fire 152 138 131 147 110 Building Fire 54 67 72 61 50 Other Property Fire 46 45 53 51 33 Vehicle Fire 168 181 146 103 110 Chimney Dwelling 54 54 42 40 62 Chimney Non-Dwelling 2 1 2 2 3 FAA 441 380 466 437 480 FAGI 162 173 171 194 134 FAM 51 50 45 38 26 FDR3 727 724 748 668 440 OBAT SSC-Other 251 310 145 148 186 SSC-RTC 100 110 103 102 91 Grand Total 2208 2233 2124 1991 1725 Because the Locality is a place of contrasts, the social and economic profile of the Locality in general can hide significant localised areas of increased fire risk, deprivation, poor health and disability issues together with high numbers of people living with long term limiting illness and high numbers living in socially rented accommodation. Within these areas the provision of fire prevention services is a priority, as it is for other identified vulnerable groups such as single parents, migrant workers and gypsies and travellers. In other parts of the locality, rurality and the associated issues of the lack of affordable houses, longer travelling distances and access to services present a challenge to the Fire & Rescue Service. Regarding communication and transport; there are a number of major roads in the locality, including the A66 which runs east to west and the A595 running north to south. The west coast train line passes through the Locality following the coast from Barrow to Carlisle and there are shipping ports at Workington, Whitehaven and Silloth. Smaller harbours and marina’s are located at Maryport and Harrington. The Locality partly comprises the Western Lakes and natural risks include a significant water risk as a result of the numbers of lakes, tarns and rivers, as well as the Solway Coast. In particular river systems in the locality have presented a significant flooding problem over the years, culminating in a 1:1000 year event occurring in the Cockermouth, Workington and Keswick areas in November 2009. This area also attracts significant numbers of tourists and Keswick in particular is a holiday hotspot, with the associated numbers of large hotels and many boarding houses presenting higher levels of sleeping risk in this part of the Locality. Much of the Locality land mass inland is made up of mountains and moorland which, as well as adding to the sense of rural isolation for many communities, also provides a significant wild land CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 5 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 fire risk. There is also wild land fire risk on the Solway Coast, a natural habitat home to many endangered species of plant and wildlife. With regards to industrial risk, the world renowned Sellafield nuclear reprocessing facility is located in the south of the Locality and is the area’s largest employer. In addition, there is a variety of other large scale industrial companies with sites in the Locality. In particular chemical plants are located on the A596 between Workington and Maryport and packaging manufactures are located on sites between Workington and Maryport as well as at Whitehaven and Wigton. These include: ■ Pentagon Chemicals ■ Iggesund Paperboard ■ Voridian / Indorama ■ Alcan Packaging ■ Evonik Goldschmidt 6 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 CFRS Strategic Risk Review 2010 Kendal Locality: CFRS Kendal Locality is situated in South Cumbria and covers much of South Lakeland and a significant proportion of Eden District Council areas. It is predominantly rural and the outstanding natural landscape covers areas in both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales National Parks. The current population of the Kendal Locality is estimated to be 84,966. The Minority Ethnic Group population of Kendal was estimated in 2007 to be 3.3% overall, and the figure for the Kendal Locality is probably slightly higher, with South Lakeland having an estimated 5.7%.

Although education is a relatively new phenomenon in the English and Welsh penal system, by the 20th century, education had become an integral part of prison life. It served partly as a control mechanism and partly for more altruistic needs. Until 1993 the management and delivery of education and training in prisons was carried out by local education authority staff. Since that time, the education responsibility has been contracted out to organizations such as the Staff College, other universities, and private training organizations. Various policy implications were resolved in order to allow these organizations to provide prison education. Today, prison education programs are probably the most comprehensive of any found in the country. They may range from literacy education to postgraduate study, with students ranging in age from 15 to over 65. The curriculum focuses on social and life skills.

Managing Technical & Operational Development PhD Thesis Abstract The argument for this thesis is that patterns of past engineering and operational development can be used to support the creation of a good, robust strategy for future development and that, in order to achieve this, a corporate understanding of the history of the engineering, operational and organisational changes in the business is essential for any evolving railway undertaking. It has been the objective of the author of this study to determine whether it is essential that the history and development of a railway undertaking be known and understood by its management and staff in order for the railway to function in an efficient manner and for it to be able to develop robust and appropriate improvement strategies in a cost-effective manner.

This represented 24% of the total track maintenance budget, whilst accounting for only 5% of the network mileage. The large costs are due to the complex S&C design that allows network flexibility whilst supporting a vehicle traversing from the switch rail to the stock rail and through the crossing. The motivation for undertaking this research was to understand how S&C reacts to dynamic loading imposed by the vehicles, and to gain a better knowledge of the deterioration of the asset.

  • Millom and Haverigg Flood Report DRAFT
    Millom and Haverigg Flood Investigation Report 30th September 2017 Cumbria County Council This flood investigation report has been produced by Cumbria County Council as a Lead Local Flood Authority under Section 19 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. Version Undertaken by Reviewed by Approved by Date Draft Helen Renyard / Making Space for Doug Coyle January 2018 Gavin Murray Water Group Final 2 Serving the people of Cumbria Executive Summary Cumbria County Council as Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) has prepared this report with the assistance of other Flood Risk Management Authorities as it considers necessary to do so under Section 19 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. Millom and Haverigg are situated on the west Cumbrian coastline in the south of the county with Duddon estuary directly to the east. Many watercourses discharge into the estuary with Duddon River as the primary source. On 30th September 2017 an intense rainfall event occurred which at its peak had an intensity of 19-21mm/hr. The rain soon overwhelmed the drainage systems and surface water began to rise, flooding an estimated 261 residential properties including commercial. As part of the investigations the LLFA has gathered information from affected residents by means of site visits and a flood forum where members of the public provided information. Many surveys of various assets in the area have been carried out including highway drainage systems, public sewers including pumping stations and the performance of associated watercourses. From the information gathered it was identified that the cause of the flooding was due to the intense rainfall event overwhelming the drainage assets, however, in some locations it may have been compounded by faults on some of the drainage systems.
