The Board, advised by the Oral Health Advisory Group, wishes to examine evidence-based options for addressing this problem. Amongst possible options may be community water fluoridation (CWF). In the first instance, and without commitment, it is desired to gain an understanding of whether CWF would be technically feasible for Hull, an indication of costs, and the extent to which any scheme might need to extend beyond the City boundary to be technically viable. Public Health England (PHE) holds, on behalf of the Secretary of State for Health, the legal agreements with water companies for all CWF schemes in England. PHE has supported the City’s Director of Public Health to develop a specification for a phased feasibility assessment from Yorkshire Water Services Ltd (Yorkshire Water) to assist those deliberations.” 1.2 Specification for the study. 1.2.1 Meeting legislative requirements. Community water fluoridation is governed by specific legislation within the Water Industry Act 1991 as amended most recently by the Health and Social Care Act 2012, together with secondary legislation in The Water Fluoridation (Proposals and Consultation)(England) Regulations 2013 and The Water Supply (Fluoridation Indemnities)(England) Regulations 2005. Under that legislation, a local authority which has made a formal proposal for a fluoridation scheme has to consult the water undertaker and ascertain its views as to whether the arrangements which would result from implementing the proposal, insofar as they might affect the water undertaker, would be operable and efficient [Water Industry Act 1991, section 88C(3)]. Kingston upon Hull has not made such a formal proposal and may not do so. Nevertheless, in order to aid the appraisal of options and decision-making by the Health and Well-being Board, it is important that Yorkshire Water, in carrying out each phase of this feasibility assessment, ensures that the scope and content would enable the company to certify in due course that the arrangements described would be “operable and efficient” insofar as they might affect the company. In submitting the completed report on the final phase of the feasibility assessment, the company will be required to confirm that any fluoridation arrangements described therein would meet that test. The legislation also requires a formal fluoridation proposal to specify the area or areas which, under the proposal, would receive water in which the fluoride content had been increased [Act, s88B(2)]. Additionally, it is necessary for the proposer to know whether the proposal would affect any other local authority [Act, s88D]. It is therefore also important that Yorkshire Water identifies the area(s) which would be affected by any scheme(s) identified through the feasibility study, both in terms of geographical coverage [including in Commercial-in-Confidence 2366682 – Summary Final - Page 3 of 24 07 Nov, 2016 relation to local authority boundaries] and population size covered by the identified scheme(s)[again by local authority]. 1.2.2 Scope of the study The feasibility study process is to be split into three phases so as to minimise expenditure on levels of detail which may be found to be unnecessary. The phases (if all commissioned) would comprise: 1. An initial desktop identification of WQZs, affected LAs and affected populations, together with potential locations for fluoridation plants, with some narrative about water flows and general resilience. This phase might identify a number of possible options for initial discussion with Hull City Council and Public Health England. 2. Develop estimates of costs for selected options based on “off the shelf” cost estimates. 3. A full engineering feasibility study in relation to preferred option(s) to identify water flows, resilience issues, numbers of households affected by LA, scope of works for fluoridation plants and costs. In undertaking the Phase 1 study it became clear that to answer the questions raised, most of the information required to answer Phase 2 was identified and developed; this information is therefore provided in this report. Commercial-in-Confidence 2366682 – Summary Final - Page 4 of 24 07 Nov, 2016 2 Yorkshire Water - water production & distribution 2.1 Overview Yorkshire Water operates a complex grid network, allowing treated water to be moved around their supply area. Whilst this ensures water supply resilience, it means that any given area could be supplied by a number of different water treatment works (WTW), singly, or in combination, which may change throughout the year. Whilst the above Grid system is of significant benefit in ensuring the resilience of water supplies to the Region, it adds complexity in dealing with situations such as the subject of this report. In developing the scenarios YWS has proposed solutions which do not compromise the resilience of supplies to Hull CC residents, or any other authorities. 2.2 Hull area water sources The water treatment works feeding Hull are supplied by both river and groundwater sources. There are three main WTWs for water supplies to the City of Hull and Holderness areas: Keldgate water treatment works (WTW) generally supplies West and Central Hull Tophill Low WTW generally supplies East Hull and Holderness Loftsome Bridge WTW generally supplies West Hull, under normal circumstances after blending with water at Keldgate CRE. In undertaking this study we identified that Loftsome Bridge WTW supplied little of the Hull CC area directly, and that the very large area of overspill it gave rise to was likely to overweigh the benefits of providing dosing to those areas. Dosing of fluoride at this site has not been considered further. 2.3 Details of the Hull Water Supply relevant to potential fluoridation schemes The base-load flow is delivered from Tophill Low WTW (THL). A diurnal flow set point from THL allows a change in flow to meet the demands of customers whilst balancing the optimal operation of the WTW. Once the demand for water exceeds that produced by THL WTW the additional variable flow to meet it is provided by controlled gravity feeds from Keldgate WTW, and if required from Loftsome Bridge WTW. Water then enters the City via three groups of strategic mains, each of which is metered and the flow of water managed by automatically controlled valves. The pressure in the City is controlled at a ‘critical node’ with a diurnal pressure profile set-point; feedback from this modulates the automated valves to maintain the desired pressure. The flexibility of this system is key to maintaining supplies to the City and surrounding areas under a range of scenarios, and must not be compromised by any proposed fluoridation scheme. This is consistent with the obligations of Yorkshire Water under the Water Act. Commercial-in-Confidence 2366682 – Summary Final - Page 5 of 24 07 Nov, 2016 In addition to supplying the City, there are a number of exports from the supplying WTWs, prior to water entering the HCC area, or where water is subsequently exported to ERYC areas. Principally these are: from Tophill Low WTW:- a supply to the area East toward the coast at Hornsea From Hull Town Pressure System: - supplies provided directly to Salt End and beyond, and to the Holderness Peninsula The former can be addressed by a change in dosing arrangements, the latter cannot, without major disruption and expense, and potential loss of resilience of water supplies. 2.4 Overview of previous fluoridation study A previous Regional study (undertaken on behalf of Public Health England) identified that, in order to provide full coverage of the City of Hull consistently, a fluoridation scheme would involve providing dosing facilities for water produced at all three of the above WTWs. In turn this resulted in fluoride dosed water entering the areas served by the following local authorities: Hull – the target area, East Riding, North Yorkshire (Ryedale, Selby), York The likely extent of overspill into other Authority areas was identified; some areas eg the M62 corridor received the target fluoride dose, others, particularly those to the East of York, received some fluoride, but for most of the year this would be very significantly below the target concentration. Amongst others, one of the aims of this current specific feasibility study was to identify the means by which some of the above issues could be resolved and provide more targeted dosing arrangements. Commercial-in-Confidence 2366682 – Summary Final - Page 6 of 24 07 Nov, 2016 3 Proposed fluoride dosing locations 3.1 Overview In the following sections of the report we identify the limits of what can be achieved by means of introducing fluoride at water treatment works sites only, and, as an alternative the potential to tailor dosing more closely to the City of Hull boundary by introducing fluoride at other potential dosing points. As previously stated, we believe that dosing of fluoride at Loftsome Bridge WTW is not cost effective, supplying a very low population in Hull directly, and being responsible for a very significant area of overspill into ERYC area. With these caveats, the following sections identify the two dosing scenarios which are feasible and operable and give HCC options to inform the debate around dosing.

  • The Humber Metro
    The Humber Metro The Humber Metro is a very futuristic concept, depending, as it does, on the existence of the Humber tunnel between Goxhill and the approach to Paragon station, proposed as part of HS10 in the ‘HS Eastern Routes and Service Plans’ article. As noted there, although the tunnel will be built to GC gauge, it is intended from the outset to be shared with Regional Metro traffic between Cleethorpes and Hull, which will at least initially be of UK loading gauge. The Humber Metro covers the area from Selby and Goole in the west to Cleethorpes and Withernsea in the east, and from Grimsby in the south to Bridlington in the north. The core section, built to GC-gauge, as all new infrastructure should be, runs in tunnel under the centre of Hull between Paragon (LL) and Cannon St. (former H&B) stations, with a connection to the Hornsea / Withernsea lines just before Wilmington, and another to the Beverley line at Cottingham. Other than that (and the Humber tunnel, of course,) it takes over the routes of existing and former, long closed, branches. The proposed metro services fall into two groups, either cross-river or west-east along the north bank. The services of the first group are: 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St. – Cannon St. – Beverley Rd. – Jack Kaye Walk – Cottingham – Beverley – Arram – Lockington – Hutton Cranswick – Great Driffield – Nafferton – Lowthorpe – Burton Agnes – Carnaby – Bridlington 2tph Cleethorpes – New Clee – Grimsby Docks – Grimsby Town – West Marsh – Great Coates – Healing – Stallingborough – Habrough – Ulceby – Thornton Abbey – Goxhill – Hull Paragon (LL) – George St.

  • Locating the Site of the Battle of Brunanburh (937) V4 by and © Adrian C Grant (1St Version Posted 7Th February 2019, This Revision Posted 5Th August 2019)
    Locating the site of the Battle of Brunanburh (937) v4 by and © Adrian C Grant (1st version posted 7th February 2019, this revision posted 5th August 2019) Abstract In this paper I argue that the Battle of Brunanburh (937) took place on the old Roman Road between Brough-on-Humber (Petuaria/Civitas Parisiorum) and South Cave in the East Riding of Yorkshire. This updated version has been triggered both by comments gratefully received from readers of previous drafts and because two alternative candidate sites not wholly inconsistent with my original proposal have come to my attention since version 3 was uploaded. So, whereas the original paper dismissed other proposals mainly by disregarding them, this revision now extends the argument to examine the claims of as many rival sites as I can identify, showing why they are to be discounted. The basis of the positive argument for Brough lies in (a) understanding the military objectives (b) the evidence of the Annals and (c) the relevance of Beverley Minster. It is demonstrated that the place-name evidence is consistent with this site. It is suggested that the huge proportion of church dedications in the area to "All Saints" can be seen as further circumstantial evidence. Preface Following up my researches into the 12 famous battles of "king" Arthur, published in late 2017 ("Arthur: Legend, Logic & Evidence"), my attention turned to the process and timescale of the Anglo-Saxon take over of post-Roman Britain. Amongst other things this caused me to consider the Siege of Lindisfarne and the battles of Catterick, Daegsastan and Caer Greu.
