The latest population growth and climate change predictions show that pressure on water resources is likely to increase in the future. In light of this, we have to ensure that we continue to maintain and improve sustainable abstraction and balance the needs of society, the economy and the environment. This licensing strategy sets out how we will manage water resources in the Swale, Ure, Nidd and Upper Ouse catchment and provides you with information on how we will manage existing abstraction licences and water availability for further abstraction. -

Various Sites Ripon North Yorkshire
HARROGATE BOROUGH COUNCIL PLANNING COMMITTEE – AGENDA ITEM 6: LIST OF PLANS. DATE: 21 November 2006 PLAN: 11 CASE NUMBER: 06/01791/EIAMAJ GRID REF: EAST 431209 NORTH 470965 APPLICATION NO. 6.500.255.EIAMAJ DATE MADE VALID: 14.08.2006 TARGET DATE: 04.12.2006 WARD: Falls Within 2 Or More VIEW PLANS AT: http://tinyurl.com/yko78k APPLICANT: Environment Agency AGENT: Halcrow Group Ltd PROPOSAL: Construct a flood alleviation scheme in Ripon, which will include a flood storage embankment at Birkby Nab on the River Laver and flood defence walls and embankments in Ripon, Fisher Green and Little Studley. Alma Weir will also be replaced and 100m of riverbed lowered upstream of the weir. LOCATION: Various Sites Ripon North Yorkshire REPORT SITE AND PROPOSAL Ripon has a long history of flooding, the last major events being in 2000 and 2005. As a result these recent events, the Environment Agency undertook various studies to determine how best to manage flooding in the city. Ripon is sited at the meeting of three rivers. The Rivers Skell and Laver flow from the moors to the west and meet at the western boundary of the city. Here they become the River Skell, which flows through Ripon, meeting the River Ure to the east of the city. Following extensive technical, environment and economic analysis the preferred solution involved a combination of options; flood storage on the River Laver upstream of Ripon and the erection of flood defence walls and embankments through the city. The proposed works are designed to protect 500 residential properties against a 1 in 100 year flood event (1% probability). -
