The Lincolnshire Chalk Streams Project (LCSP) is a group of organisations that have worked together since 2003 to preserve and enhance this important habitat. The partnership aims to: Make sustainable improvements to chalk streams in Lincolnshire focussed around the Lincolnshire Wolds. Raise awareness of chalk streams and their importance. Improve our knowledge of Lincolnshire's chalk stream habitats. Restore and improve Lincolnshire's chalk streams for the benefit of wildlife and the community. 1.1 The Partnership The Lincolnshire Chalk Streams Project (LCSP) came about as an idea from the Environment Agency (EA) back in 2003. Several organisations were brought on board: Lincolnshire Wolds Countryside Service (LWCS) (host), Lincolnshire County Council (LCC) (host via LWCS), Natural England (NE), Anglian Water Services (AWS), Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust (LWT) and the Wild Trout Trust (WTT) (Figure 1).The intention was to form a project that would deliver necessary actions to restore Lincolnshire’s chalk stream Biodiversity Action Plan ‘priority habitat’. An investigation was carried out, funded by the EA, to identify the chalk streams in Lincolnshire and to group them into categories of chalk stream for example, ‘classic chalk stream’ and ‘mixed geology chalk stream’ (Figure 3). In 2004/05 a restoration project was carried out on the Waithe beck in Stainton le Vale which acted as a demonstration site for the partner organisations, farmers, landowners and communities. An event was held whereby interest was sought from these individuals as to whether they would support a Lincolnshire Chalk Streams Project in helping to restore such a rare and unique habitat. The event and restoration work was successful and in 2006 funding became available to employ a project officer on a two year contract. It was agreed the LCSP project would be hosted by the LWCS due to the location of the chalk springs and streams mostly rising from within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The LWCS is currently hosted by LCC and therefore the LCSP project benefits from these hosting arrangements both financially and via connections to wider organisations and initiatives. The role of the Joint Advisory Committee and the Lincolnshire Wolds Countryside Service sub groups is explained in more detail in appendix 1. Members of the JAC can be found in appendix 2. The project officer was successful in a grant application to Natural England's Countdown 2010 to match fund a grant from the SITA trust. This enabled the project to deliver on-the-ground works for a two year period whilst continuing to employ a project officer. During this time approximately 8km of chalk stream habitat had been restored and over 41km of land was under improved management. The partners have continued to contribute funding to encourage the continuation of delivering habitat improvements to Lincolnshire's Chalk Streams. 2 In 2013 Defra and the Environment Agency rolled out the Catchment-Based Approach (CaBA), the LCSP were fortunate to be awarded the title of catchment host for the Northern becks (see figure 2). Figure 1: Diagram to show structure of partnership support for the LCSP. See appendix 4 for further details. 3 Figure 2: Catchment-Based Approach host organisations in Lincolnshire 4 Figure 3: Location of Lincolnshire's Chalk Streams 5 1.2 Lincolnshire’s Chalk Streams Lincolnshire has a number of chalk streams; including around 18 main-stem rivers such as the Great Eau, River Bain and the River Rase, with perhaps twice as many again small tributaries such as Laceby Beck, all of which rise in the Wolds. Some are located predominantly on chalk strata – ‘pure’ chalk streams, such as Waithe Beck – but most are ‘mixed geology’, rising from chalk springs, but running over other types of geology, such as sandstone: for example the River Lymn falls into this category (figure 3). Unfortunately Lincolnshire’s fragile chalk stream habitat has been seriously degraded over the last century, in particular in the last 50 years, largely due to agricultural intensification. The current threats to chalk streams in Lincolnshire are from: Abstraction for drinking water supply, industry, fish and irrigation, which results in low flows, reduced dilution of pollutants, sedimentation, excess algal growth, loss of current-loving species and entrapment of wild fish. Effluent discharge from sewage works, industry, fish, resulting in introduction of endocrine disruptors; increased temperatures; organic, nutrient and toxic pollution; loss of species; excess algal growth and reduced population size. Agriculture. Livestock farming causes bank damage and polluted runoff (organic matter, nutrients, sediment), whilst arable farming sees increased drainage and polluted runoff (nutrients, herbicides, endocrine disruptors, sediment). This results in damage to aquatic and wetland habitats and sensitive species, reduced water quality, accelerated runoff and reduced groundwater discharge. Flood defence, land drainage and inappropriate level control involving channel and bank engineering, weed cutting, dredging, hatch operation result in damage to aquatic and riparian species and habitats. Development in the catchments causing construction waste and polluted runoff (e.g. oils, sediment, heavy metals) meaning

These areas have their own objectives and standards. Article 4 of the Water Framework Directive requires Member States to achieve compliance with the standards and objectives set for each protected area by 22 December 2015, unless otherwise specified in the Community legislation under which the protected area was established. Some areas may require special protection under more than one EC Directive or may have additional (surface water and/or groundwater) objectives. In these cases, all the objectives and standards must be met. Article 6 requires Member States to establish a register of protected areas. The types of protected areas that must be included in the register are: • areas designated for the abstraction of water for human consumption (Drinking Water Protected Areas); • areas designated for the protection of economically significant aquatic species (Freshwater Fish and Shellfish); • bodies of water designated as recreational waters, including areas designated as Bathing Waters; • nutrient-sensitive areas, including areas identified as Nitrate Vulnerable Zones under the Nitrates Directive or areas designated as sensitive under Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD); • areas designated for the protection of habitats or species where the maintenance or improvement of the status of water is an important factor in their protection including 1 relevant Natura 2000 sites.

  • Monthly Water Situation Report Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire Area
    Monthly water situation report Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire Area Summary – August 2021 After near average rainfall in July, August was drier than average. This saw the soil moisture deficit increase and flows in rivers decrease. The wet winter means that groundwater levels are normal or above normal and this has supported the baseflows in the groundwater fed rivers but some of the runoff dominated rivers are now classified as below normal Rainfall Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire Area received an average of 26.1mm during August, 44% of the long term average. The lowest rainfall was in the Witham to Chapel Hill hydrological area with 22.5mm, 37% of the long term average and the highest was in the Louth Grimsby and Ancholme hydrological area with 31.6mm, 52% of the long term average. Soil Moisture Deficit/Recharge In response to the dry August soil moisture deficits are either normal or above normal for the time of year. River Flows River flows have been falling during August particularly in the runoff dominated river Welland and Nene catch- ments. Flows at 8 out of the 10 sites monitored are classified as normal for August with Brampton branch of the River Nene at St Andrews Mill and the Ashley on the River Welland classified as below normal. Groundwater Levels Groundwater levels fell in line with the seasonal trend during August but because of the wetter than average win- ter recharge period these are classified as either normal or above normal for the time of year Reservoir Storage/Water Resource Zone Stocks All reservoirs are near or above their normal operating curves.

  • Waterways News 10
    NNEEWW SSLL EETT TTEE RR March 2007 Welcome to our Twelfth LWP Newsletter Many thanks to those of you who returned the questionnaire that was in the last newsletter – a very satisfactory 15.3% response. We welcome the feedback and couldn’t disagree with any of the things that you said we could do better (many of them already on my guilt list) and delighted that this newsletter was one of the things that you all seem to like. See page 15 for a bit of a summary of your comments. For this issue we have taken on board the much-repeated comment that it would be nice to have advance warning of openings rather than just reading about them INSIDE afterwards. So read on for some imminent deadlines on Southrey, Four Mile Bar footbridge and a Tennyson Trail. We have also added in 4 extra Habitat Highways pages to this newsletter – also as requested. G We would like to welcome over 600 new readers to this newsletter – this New Bridge at Sleaford last quarter has seen the biggest increase to our database yet – and if G you are not on it, do fill in the coupon on page 12. Mary Powell Fish in our Rivers Bridge Over the Welland Delighted to be able to announce that the new Four Mile Bar footbridge was completed in the very early New Year. The reach of the River Welland available to larger craft has been limited by the former Four Mile Bar Bridge, which had the lowest air draught on the river at 1.6m.

The Risk Management Authorities are: • Lincolnshire County Council • The Environment Agency • The 14 Internal Drainage Boards operating in Lincolnshire • The 7 District Councils in Lincolnshire • The two Water and Sewerage Companies operating in Lincolnshire To improve the way we work together, these organisations created the Lincolnshire Flood Risk and Water Management Partnership in April 2010, and they are joined by: • Natural England • The Regional Flood & Coastal Committee • The Lincolnshire Resilience Forum (authorities responsible for planning for and responding to emergencies of all kinds) The partnership has worked together to agree the Joint Lincolnshire Flood Risk and Water Management Strategy. The purpose of the Strategy is to increase the safety of people across Lincolnshire by reducing the number of people at risk of flooding, increasing the resilience of local communities and reducing the impact of flooding.
