    13-1 © Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions UK Limited 13. Groundwater 13.1 Introduction 13.1.1 This chapter of the Environmental Statement (ES) assesses the likely significant effects of the Proposed Development with reference to groundwater. The chapter should be read in conjunction with Chapter 2: Description of the Proposed Development and with reference to relevant parts of other chapters including Chapter 12: Surface Water and Flood Risk and Chapter 10: Land Quality, where common receptors have been considered and where there is an overlap or relationship between the assessment of effects. 13.2 Limitations of this assessment 13.2.1 No limitations relating to groundwater have been identified that affect the robustness of the assessment of the likely significant effects of the Proposed Development. 13.3 Relevant legislation, planning policy and technical guidance Legislative context 13.3.1 The following legislation is relevant to groundwater and the assessment presented within this chapter: The EU Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC)1 (WFD), as enacted into domestic law by the Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) (England and Wales) Regulations 20032: focuses on delivering an integrated approach to the protection and sustainable use of the water environment on a river basin scale; Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 (SI 2010 No. 676)3, as amended includes requirements for the prevention of hazardous substances entering groundwater and the control of non-hazardous pollutants to avoid pollution of groundwater. Discharges to groundwater are controlled by these regulations; Water Resources Act 19914: states that it is an offence to cause or knowingly permit polluting, noxious, poisonous or any solid waste matter to enter controlled waters.

  • North Somerset Moors + Chew Valley & Blagdon Lakes Total Area
    Priority Catchment Targeting Summary March 2012 – March 2014 River Basin District: Severn Catchment: North Somerset Moors + Chew Valley & Blagdon Lakes Total Area: 1,250 km² Reasons for Designation: Recorded Water Framework Directive failures for nitrate and phosphate which exceed permitted levels for drinking water (evidence from Environment Agency and Bristol Water monitoring data on nitrates, phosphates and sediments). High risk of leaching of nitrates to ground water and run-off to surface water due to soil type, slopes and high risk crops. Dairy farming is widespread in the catchment with corresponding high levels of inputs of inorganic fertilisers and slurry. Levels of Nitrate exceed EU limits for drinking water at Hillhead Springs (>70mg/l). This source is abstracted to Bristol Water’s Line of Works. High risk of erosion of sediments and particle-bound phosphates due to soil type, compaction, slopes and high risk crops such as maize. Surface Drinking Water Protected Areas are also at risk due to algal blooms. Nutrient enrichment of Chew Valley and Blagdon lakes1 from diffuse agricultural sources gives rise to cyanobacteria and algal blooms during the summer. Bristol Water sampling data has highlighted elevated pesticide levels (metaldehyde) in Chew and Blagdon Lakes. Slug pellet use on arable farms most likely source. Metaldehyde is very difficult to remove from the supply. Sites of Special Scientific Interest remain in unfavourable condition as a consequence of elevated phosphate in feeder rhynes. Puxton, Biddle Street and Tickenham + Nailsea Moor SSSIs designated for ditch flora at risk. Condition element for phosphate exceeded at Blagdon and Chew Valley Lake SSSIs.
