It is also responsible for some functions previously undertaken by Welsh Government.

We work for the communities of Wales to protect people and their homes as much as possible from environmental incidents like flooding and pollution. We provide opportunities for people to learn, use and benefit from Wales' natural resources. We work to support Wales' economy by enabling the sustainable use of natural resources to support jobs and enterprise. We help businesses and developers to understand and consider environmental limits when they make important decisions. We work to maintain and improve the quality of the environment for everyone and we work towards making the environment and our natural resources more resilient to climate change and other pressures. Evidence at Natural Resources Wales Natural Resources Wales is an evidence based organisation. We seek to ensure that our strategy, decisions, operations and advice to Welsh Government and others are underpinned by sound and quality-assured evidence. We recognise that it is critically important to have a good understanding of our changing environment.

  • Planning & Development Committee 4 March 2021
    PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE 4 MARCH 2021 REPORT OF: DIRECTOR PROSPERITY AND DEVELOPMENT PURPOSE OF THE REPORT Members are asked to determine the planning application outlined below: APPLICATION NO: 20/0986/10 (CHJ) APPLICANT: Enviroparks (Wales) Limited DEVELOPMENT: Construction and use of a stack with associated pipework and a continuous emissions monitoring systems gantry with ladder access. LOCATION: FIFTH AVENUE, HIRWAUN INDUSTRIAL ESTATE, HIRWAUN DATE REGISTERED: 29/09/2020 ELECTORAL DIVISION: Rhigos RECOMMENDATION: Approve subject to a S106 Agreement REASONS: The only change proposed by this application relates to a minor relocation and increase (doubling) in height of the stack and some ducting associated with the revised location. All other aspects of the development remain unchanged and are not under consideration. The application falls to be determined under two principal criteria namely (a) emissions and (b) visual amenity. In respect of emissions, this is something that is wholly governed by NRW and will be the subject of an application under the Environmental Permitting Regulations (EPR). NRW have advised that, for the purposes of the planning application, the emissions modelled by the applicant are acceptable (and is actually lower than modelling for the scheme granted planning permission in 2019 suggested). EPR will cover all aspects of both human health and that associated with flora and fauna that can be susceptible to changes in atmospheric conditions (in particular, the Marsh Fritillary Butterfly and Devil’s Bit Scabious within the Blaen Cynon SAC). Without an approval under EPR, the development cannot become operational (and is therefore unlikely to be constructed / completed). In respect of visual amenity, neither NRW or BBNPA have objected to the impact and an independent Landscape Consultant (White Consultants) has concluded that the impact, while being significant, is also acceptable.

  • Waterfall Country Community Engagement Plan 2020
    Waterfall Country Community Engagement Plan 2020 – 21 Introduction Historically there has been a lack of communication from stakeholders to the community regarding the projects and initiatives underway to tackle over-tourism issues. This has led to misunderstanding and resentment from the community who were unaware of the work undertaken, the different responsibilities of the different organisations or how they could contribute. Communication within the area has been better since Facebook groups have been used, but not all residents use this platform and often do not get the information they require. Engagement between partners will encourage cooperative working and community involvement. The key partners in this area are the Community Councils of Ystradfellte and Pontnedfechan Council and Penderyn and Glynneath Councils. The newly set up community group Proactive Pontneddfechan is proving invaluable for engaging with residents and identifying and managing events and celebrations to bring people together. Newsletter A quarterly newsletter, which can have additional shorter publications if needed, has already proved a successful way of disseminating information from stakeholders and within the community about the projects underway and has helped to promote community led initiatives. This is leading to greater understanding about the complexity of delivering these projects, the different responsibilities of the authorities and stakeholders involved information and stories about the natural environment and heritage a platform for community groups and members to advertise events and share activities. Online Survey – Connection to Nature COVID 19 has provided a unique environment where residents are forced to stay within their locality and exercise there. In normal circumstances the area would already see a high number of visitors but during the pandemic the lock down has prevented this.
