T is usual to write something as a preface, and this generally appears to be to make some excuse for having written at all. In a pre- face to Tom Toole and his Friends — a very interesting book published a few years ago, by Mrs. Henry Sandford, in which the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, together with the Wedgwoods and many other eminent men of that day figure,—the author says, on one occasion, when surrounded by old letters, note books, etc., an old and faithful servant remon- " " strated with her thus : And what for ? she " demanded very emphatically.

The great majority of us are convinced that the county of our birth is the best part of Eng- land, and if we are folk country-born, that our parish is the most favoured spot in it. With something of this idea prompting me, I have en- deavoured to look up all available information and documents, and elaborate such by personal recollections and by reference to authorities.

    NRA National Rivers Authority ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 1990 CLASSIFICATION OF ESTUARY QUALITY TWS/92/005 Author: J. Driver Tidal Waters Scientist GORDON H BIELBY BSc Regional General Manager C V M Davies Environmental Protection Manager 1990 CLASSIFICATION OF ESTUARY QUALITY Introduction 1. Each year, 22 estuaries in the region are classified in terms of their aesthetic, chemical and biological quality. In 1990 two surveys were carried out. Hie first (or "DoE Survey") was a repeat of the subjective assessment made in 1989 and previous years. This was based on the current NWC system of points allocation approved by the DoE/NWC Standing Technical Advisory Committee on Water Quality (Appendix 1). The second (or "NRA Survey") used the chemical data collected in each estuary during 1990 to provide a more objective classification for each estuary (using the same points allocation system as above). 2. Every 5 years, the NWC classification is reported to the DoE to form part of the report of the national survey of river and estuary quality. This was last done in 1985. The 1990 NWC classification has been forwarded to the DoE. 3. The results of the NRA survey will be forwarded to NRA HQ and will form the basis of future work. 1990 Classification i) DoE Survey 4. The subjective assessment of each estuary in the region follows that of previous years. Appendix 2 give details of the 1990 classification. 5. For each estuary 2 lengths (1985 length and 1990 length) are reported. Towards the end of 1989 all the estuaries were re-measured (by splitting each estuary into sections, or zones, and measuring each zone).

  • MA11 Policy Development Zone: PDZ5
    Location reference: Lower Fal Management Area reference: MA11 Policy Development Zone: PDZ5 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly SMP2 Final Report Chapter 4 PDZ5 7 February 2011 DISCUSSION AND DETAILED POLICY DEVELOPMENT The preferred plan for the Lower Fal aims to balance the provision of support to the core settlements of Falmouth, Penryn, St Mawes, St Just, Flushing, Restronguet and Mylor (in line with the high-level SMP objectives) with a management approach which does not adversely impact on the undeveloped parts of the lower estuary and importantly takes account of any potential impacts on the Fal & Helford SAC. It is important to note that there is a legal requirement to not adversely affect the integrity of the SAC; through impacts such as the loss of intertidal feeding areas by not allowing the high water mark to move inland due to climate change. This, of course, requires a number of different policy options to be employed at different locations. From a high level view-point, it can be seen that across the whole Management Area (and indeed across the entire estuary system) there will be a trend toward a reduction in intertidal area due to sea level rise. Wherever the landward movement of MHWS is constrained by the rising topography or defences, reduction in intertidal area may occur. It is likely that a net overall reduction in intertidal area may occur toward the latter part of the SMP timeframe when considering sea level rise in isolation. However the picture is actually much more complex than this – erosion, accretion, sedimentation, changes in the tidal prism, increases in rainfall and fluvial flow will also affect the current pattern of intertidal exposure.
