(continued over) Lizard Peninsula Heritage Trust - Newsletter 63, April 2015 - Page 1 Coprophilic Canines Those of you who take the West Briton might have noticed an article in it just before Christmas concerning doggy demises on The Lizard. As you know, (Lizard Trust Newsletter 61, October 2014, page 2) we lost our dear Yussi (named Beauty in the article in case her former owner read it) in July, but there then followed a spate of further incidents, also involving sudden sickness and death with no apparent cause. Other dogs suffered similar symptoms but pulled through. The W.B. article was instigated by our neighbour, with the full support of both Helston veterinary practices and the police, and we hoped it might shine a light on the mystery. There was very little response until January when another Lizard resident Mount Edgcumbe - The Orangery & Italian Garden suggested that sheep wormer might be the cause. The following For this visit to Mount Edgcumbe, we need an early start, meeting to is based on an internet article: share cars at Mawgan Village Hall.

Davies National Rivers A h ority Environmental Protection Manager South West Region RIVER WATER QUALITY 1992 CLASSIFICATION BY DETERMINAND 1. INTRODUCTION River water quality is monitored in 34 catchments in the region. Samples are collected at a minimum frequency of once a month from 422 watercourses at 890 locations within the Regional Monitoring Network. Each sample is analysed for a range of chemical and physical determinands. These sample results are stored in the Water Quality Archive. A computerised system assigns a quality class to each monitoring location and associated upstream river reach. This report contains the results of the 1992 river water quality classifications for each determinand used in the classification process. 2. RIVER WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT The assessment of river water quality is by comparison of current water quality against River Quality Objectives (RQO's) which have been set for many river lengths in the region. Individual determinands have been classified in accordance with the requirements of the National Water Council (NWC) river classification system which identifies river water quality as being one of five classes as shown in Table 1 below: TABLE 1 NATIONAL WATER COUNCIL - CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM CLASS DESCRIPTION 1A Good quality IB Lesser good quality 2 Fair quality 3 Poor quality 4 Bad quality The classification criteria used for attributing a quality class to each criteria are shown in Appendix 1.
