Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire Claylands Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

During this planning process, the current state of the water environment and associated land is systematically analysed and compared with appropriate standards. Where these standards are not being met or are likely to be affected in the future, the shortfalls, together with options for action to resolve them, are presented as issues in a table at the end of this brochure. YOUR VIEWS Formulation of this plan involves consulting and working with many public bodies and individuals. Your views on the issues identified are welcomed. You may also wish to comment on other matters affecting the water environment in the catchment area which you think should be examined by the NRA. Please write with your comments to the following address, from which a full copy of the consultation report may also be obtained: Bedford Ouse (Lower Reaches) Catchment Management Plan, Area Manager, National Rivers Authority, Central Area, Bromholme Lane, Brampton, Huntingdon PE18 8NE.

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.

  • The Mapping of Landscapes, Geology and Soils of Bedfordshire
    We use the words landscape and landform to refer to natural (not man-made) features visible on the surface of the Earth. The word landscape is used for larger areas of varied topography, whereas the The Mapping of Landscapes, Geology and word landform is used for smaller features that occur within landscapes, and can often be readily seen to have resulted from the local action of particular surface processes (for example, slope failure or Soils of Bedfordshire & Cambridgeshire river erosion). In this study we present a group of regional landscape maps (Maps 1-4), and a group of more local maps (Maps 5-8) on a larger scale, where landforms are more easily distinguished. Our work has been part-funded by Natural England and facilitated by Geo-East, the East of England Geodiversity Partnership. Landscapes and their component landforms have formed during the long-term geological history of an area, and may have been influenced by many factors. These include, a) the materials present just below the Earth’s surface, b) movements of the Earth’s land or sea surface, and c) the action of ice, rain, wind and living organisms. This study has been concerned particularly with ways of analysing and presenting topographical information, so that members of the general public can gain new insights into the stories that have resulted in their landscapes and landforms. Maps are routinely used to represent landscapes and landforms, and we have wanted to experiment with the ways that computer-based Geographical Information System (GIS) software, using the digital regional datasets now available, has transformed our ability to provide vivid representations of our surroundings.

    Bedford Group of Drainage Boards (Bedfordshire & River Ivel IDB, Buckingham & River Ouzel IDB and Alconbury & Ellington IDB) Data Protection Policy 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This Policy sets out the obligations of the Bedfordshire & River Ivel IDB, Buckingham & River Ouzel IDB and Alconbury & Ellington IDB (the Boards) regarding data protection and the rights of staff, clients, assignees, business contacts (“data subjects”) in respect of their personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (GDPR), the regulation, and the General Data Protection Act 2018. 1.2 The Boards are data controllers and processors. The GDPR applies to controllers and processors and applies to personal data, meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified, by reference to an identifier, and sensitive personal data. Sensitive personal data is personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation. The only category that applies to the Boards could be in relation to the collection of Trade Union subscriptions and data relating to health from sick notes and occupational health. 2 LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING 2.1 The requirement to have a lawful basis in order to process personal data is not new. It replaces and mirrors the previous requirement to satisfy one of the ‘conditions for processing’ under the Data Protection Act 1998. However, the GDPR places more emphasis on being accountable for and transparent about the Boards’ lawful basis for processing.
