    Groundwater Situation Report Wessex (Dorset & South Wiltshire) Update 12th September 2017 Current situation Current forecast risk of groundwater flooding There are currently no groundwater flood alerts for Salisbury Plain, Cranborne Chase and the West of Dorset. The latest summary of the water situation in the South West, giving details of the rainfall, groundwater levels and river flows, can found on the GOV.UK website. The link to these pages is below: August finished much drier than it started. Overall for the month the long term average (LTA) for August was ‘normal’ at 95% LTA, 62 mm. The rivers responded well to the rainfall and most flows reflect the geographical distribution of the rainfall, drier in the north and west and wetter in the south and east. Most rivers are now ‘normal’ for the time of year though South Newton on the groundwater dominated Chalk is ‘below normal’ for the time of year. The groundwater sites show a mixed response with some groundwater sites responding to the wetter than average summer, 134% LTA, whilst others on the Chalk and Greater Oolite are still ‘notably low. Several boreholes have received significant recharge this month and were still increasing at month end others while still receding are doing so at a lower rate. Sites on the Greater Oolite and Chalk are ‘notably low’ for the time of year. Many others are ‘normal’ with the exception of Kingston Russell Road, situated in the West Dorset catchment, which was ‘notably high’. In the West of Dorset, the level at the Kingston Russell borehole, on 12/09/2017, was 105.760 metres above sea level (mAOD).

  • WMTC Response to Dorset Council's Draft Local Plan
    WMTC Response to Dorset Council’s Draft Local Plan 1. Introductory Comments Wimborne Minster Town Council (WMTC) is unable to support the draft Dorset Council Local Plan in its current form. These introductory comments give an overview of the reasons why and the following sections provide more detail and background to support those reasons. If required, detailed base data that links to specific wording, para/page numbers in the Plan or evidence documents can be provided for Dorset Council’s reference. The draft Plan contains numerous erroneous, contradictory, and out of date material. Whilst undoubtedly a great deal of work has gone into such a large project, so long as significant errors contained within the documents still exist, the recommendations/ proposals within it are clearly unreliable and cannot be justified. An appendix of factual inaccuracies is attached to this report. Particularly concerning and hugely significant examples are: - the stated population for Wimborne and Colehill varies from 8,700 to 13,300 in supporting documentation, both are under assessed; and - that Wimborne Minster has an Upper School (QE School is not actually within the parish of Wimborne Minster but in the adjoining Parish of Pamphill which is in walking distance from the Town). This throws doubt on the validity of all the proposals. It is with great concern that claims can be made which are clearly untrue/ unachievable such as the suggestion that if WMC 6 goes ahead it will take 15 minutes by public transport from Wimborne to Dorchester! There are omissions and inconsistencies within the Plan including the absence of a Council-wide spatial and transport strategy, Strategic Housing Needs Assessment, Retail Study and Town Centre Needs Assessment amongst other key documentation.
