This Scoping Report was undertaken to: Gather the relevant planning information from the Local Planning Authority (LPA) – Telford & Wrekin Council to help define the study area based on likely discharge points and abstraction sources Undertake a review of the existing work and studies undertaken to date, as well as existing plans to define key issues Confirm the development scenarios and planning data with all stakeholders Define the programme for further works needed to assess the Water Cycle, as noted in the Environment Agency’s WCS Guidance and identify the data sources Identify the objectives of the WCS and which plans and strategies it will be used to inform and draw from Identify if further work is needed to inform strategic planning decisions and agree a project scope and project plan for further work if needed 2 Water Cycle Studies are not a statutory requirement. However, the Environment Agency strongly recommend a Water Cycle Study as being the most effective method of ensuring that development and growth is sustainable with respect to the water environment and water infrastructure. A Water Cycle Study does not replace a local authority’s statutory requirements, such as responsibilities under the Flood Risk Regulation 2009 or the 2010 Flood and Water Management Act. The three growth scenarios of housing target set for Telford and Wrekin Council (TWC) are required to be appraised within this Water Cycle Study. A Water Cycle Study is required to ensure that the water supply, wastewater collection and wastewater treatment infrastructure in the TWC area can accommodate the required growth levels, whilst minimising flood risk and impact on the water environment. Three Growth Scenarios options have been tested in this WCS: Option 1: Completion Led targets of 10,400 based on 85% growth concentration in Telford, 10% in Newport and 5% in rural areas. Option 2: Housing Growth Led targets of 15,560 based on 85% growth concentration in Telford, 10% in Newport and 5% in rural areas; Option 3: Regional Spatial Strategy Led of 26,500 Growth based on 85% growth concentration in Telford, 10% in Newport and 5% in rural areas 3 At this time, TWC are unable to provide Employment Growth Trajectories. However, the impact of these employment areas on the water environment will be in keeping with the impacts from the residential sites and will require mitigation accordingly. It is recommended this is explored when future work is undertaken as part of an Outline WCS Study. 4 As this WCS has looked at a range of development options, TWC will be required to undertake additional work prior to submitting their Shaping Places Local Plan, once they have finalised their Preferred Option, to ensure that the final development option decided upon has a robust evidence base. Scoping Water Cycle Study—Final Report Hyder Consulting (UK) Limited-2212959 Page 1 k:\uaprojects\ua004156 telford & wrekin\i- issued\5001-ua004156-telford wrekin scoping wcs-r-bm-final issue september 2012.docx 5 TWC will be unable to make an informed decision on their Shaping Places Local Plan Preferred Option until the developers promoting the potential new settlement locations have liaised with the water companies and the EA, and provided sufficient detail of the wastewater treatment/ sewerage solutions that they intend to utilise on site. 6 This Scoping Report was unable to draw firm conclusions about water resource environmental capacity due to the ongoing derivation of future water company plans that determine water resource strategy (Water Resource Management Plans or WRMP). It is important that the Water Cycle Study does not pre-empt or repeat the WRMP. Therefore, further assessment is recommended to incorporate the emerging findings of the PR14 WRMP documentation. 7 Additionally, it is recommended that the Water and Sewerage Company, Severn Trent Water Limited, STWL, liaise further with TWC to identify and incorporate the likely demands identified during this study from the three scenarios

  • Roman Roads in Britain
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES !' m ... 0'<.;v.' •cv^ '. V'- / / ^ .^ /- \^ ; EARLY BRITAIN. ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN BY THOMAS CODRINGTON M. INST. C.E., F.G.S. WITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS, AND SMALL MAPS LY THE TEXT SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE, LONDON: NORTHUMBERLAND AVENUE, W.C. 43, QUEEN VICTORIA STREET, E.G. ErIGHTON ; 129, NORTH STREET. 1903 PUBLISHED UNDEK THE DIRECTION OF THE GENERAL LITERATURE COMAHTTEE. DA CsHr PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the literature of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Ciren- cester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes undeserved on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads ; and with the evidence now avail- able few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable cer- tainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can IV PREFACE only be guessed at.

  • Rural Settlement List 2014
    National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

  • 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.

As ever I hope you enjoy it and it inspires you to submit your own articles relating to any aspect of entomology relevant to Shropshire or Shropshire entomologists. It is sometime since we published the last edition but hopefully there will be the same appetite for entomological news as ever. In the last newsletter we detailed a number of new County Recorders and within this edition are some of the fruits of their labours from 2013, which I feel are particularly valuable. Edition 9 will be due at the beginning of October with the cut off date for contributions being Friday 19th September. Hopefully the summer will bring plenty of entomological experiences that can be shared amongst Shropshire’s entomologists whether they are accounts of new species or just interesting sightings, all are welcomed. If anyone would like to catalogue all of the articles in this and the previous 7 newsletters as a volunteer activity I’d be pleased to hear from you.
