Dyfed Final Recommendations News Release
NEWS RELEASE Issued by the Telephone 02920 395031 Boundary Commission for Wales Caradog House Fax 02920 395250 1-6 St Andrews Place Cardiff CF10 3BE Date 25 August 2004 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN THE PRESERVED COUNTY OF DYFED The Commission propose to make no change to their provisional recommendations for five constituencies in the preserved county of Dyfed. 1. Provisional recommendations in respect of Dyfed were published on 5 January 2004. The Commission received eleven representations, five of which were in support of their provisional recommendations. Three of the representations objected to the inclusion of the whole of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division within the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency, one objected to the name of the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency and one suggested the existing arrangements for the area be retained. 2. The Commission noted that, having received no representation of the kind mentioned in section 6 (2) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, there was no statutory requirement to hold a local inquiry. The Commission further decided that in all the circumstances they would not exercise their discretion under section 6 (1) to hold an inquiry. Final recommendations 3. The main objection to the provisional recommendations was in respect of the inclusion of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division in the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency. It was argued that the division should be included in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr on the grounds that the majority of the electorate in the division fell within that constituency and that inclusion in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr rather than Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire would reduce the disparity between the electorates of the two constituencies and would bring them closer to the electoral quota. -

8.0 Biodiversity in and Around Sennybridge & Defynnog
8.0 Biodiversity in and around Sennybridge & Defynnog 8.1 Overview 8.1.1 The River Usk is a dominant feature along the north-western boundary of Sennybridge and the Afon Senni flows from the south through Defynnog and into the Usk towards the middle of the town. There is almost continuous tree cover along the river corridors providing valuable cover and habitat for bats, birds and species such as otter. The disused railway corridor also provides a woodland corridor through the settlement. The surrounding land is predominantly pasture, much of it improved grassland, but there is a surprising amount of semi-improved grassland with a variety of flower and grass species present, for example the football field between Defynnog and Sennybridge. The ancient yew tree in Defynnog churchyard is also a valuable historical and biodiversity feature.

River Usk at Dan-Y-Parc
River Usk at Dan-y-Parc An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – August 2012 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on a 1.5-mile stretch of the River Usk between Crickhowell and Abergavenny. The river is controlled and managed by the Aberlous Fishing Syndicate, and is known as the Dan-y-Parc fishery. The request for the visit was made by Mr. Robert Melvin, who is Secretary of the syndicate and one of the landowners. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. Melvin. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Upstream boundary Grid ref SO 222 176 Downstream boundary Grid ref SO 233 159 2 2. Catchment overview The River Usk rises on the northern slopes of the Black Mountain of mid-Wales, in the eastern part of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Initially the river flows north, discharging into Usk Reservoir, then east to Sennybridge and on to Brecon before swinging southeast to flow through Talybont-on-Usk, Crickhowell and Abergavenny. From here the river heads due south to Usk before flowing through the city of Newport and on into the Severn estuary at Uskmouth. In terms of the Water Framework Directive, the Dan-y-Parc reach in within waterbody ID GB109056040082, which is currently in ‘moderate’ status with a target of achieving ‘good’ status by 2015. -
