  • Part 1 Rea Ch Classifica Tion
    RIVER QUALITY SURVEY NATIONAL RIVERS AUTHORITY NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 PART 1 REA CH CLASSIFICA TION FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS VERSION 1: AUGUST 1995 GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 \ NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION To allow the development of a National method of evaluating water quality, the rivers in all the NRA regions of England and Wales have been divided into reaches, which are numbered using a coding system based on the hydrological reference for each river basin. Each classified reach then has a chemistry sample point assigned to it and these sample points are regularly monitored for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved oxygen (DO) and Total Ammonia. The summary statistics calculated from the results of this sampling are sent to a National Centre where the GQA Grades are calculated. A National report is produced and each region can then produce more detailed reports on the quality of their own rivers. For Northumbria and Yorkshire Region, this Regional Report has been divided into two parts. PARTI: REACH CLASSIFICATION This report contains a listing of the river reaches within the region, with their start and finish grid reference, approximate length, and the 1990 and 1994 GQA class for each reach. The reference code of the chemistry sample point used to classify the reach is also included. A sample point may classify several reaches if there are no major discharges or tributaries dividing those reaches. The sample point used to classify a reach may change and the classification is therefore calculated using the summary statistics for each sample point that has been used over the past three years.

The Wyke Beck valley river catchment has a long history of flooding and drainage issues. Leeds City Council (LCC) in partnership with the Environment Agency (EA) have developed a plan to address these issues in order to meet strategic priorities for Leeds City Region in particular managing flood risk and sustaining green infrastructure. A catchment wide approach has been taken, as sought in the Leeds City Region Flood Review.

  • Upper Aire Flood Risk Management Strategy Summary Consultation Document May 2009 \
    Environment Agency tackling flood risk where you live Upper Aire Flood Risk Management Strategy Summary Consultation Document May 2009 \ We are the Environment Agency. It’s our job to look after your environment and make it a better place – for you, and for future generations. We build and maintain the majority of flood defences in low- lying areas of England and Wales to reduce the risk to homes and businesses. We are also responsible for warning the public about flooding from rivers and the sea in England and Wales and raising awareness of flood risk. Published by: Helen Tattersdale National Capital Programme Management Service Environment Agency Phoenix House Global Avenue Leeds LS11 8PG Tel: 0113 2134682 Email: [email protected] www.environment-agency.gov.uk © Environment Agency All rights reserved. This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. Climate change means that we are going to get wetter winters, frequent stormy weather conditions and rising sea levels. We cannot afford to ignore the threat of flooding. We all have a role to play in dealing with the causes and effects of climate change. We consider climate change in everything we do and have a major role in limiting its impact by addressing its causes and adapting to change. As part of this role we look at the causes of flooding and decide if anything can be done to reduce the risk to people and property. But it’s not just about building walls and embankments along rivers to hold back the water in times of heavy rain.

Introduction In August 2004 and May 2005 several areas of Leeds experienced significant flooding due to unusually intense rainfall and the inability of the drainage infrastructure to cope with the increased volumes of water. The incidents highlighted several areas for improvement in terms of the resources available to maintain our assets and respond to floods. Flooding at Barley Hill Road, West Garforth, in June 2007 In response to the first of these events, the Council set-up a cross-departmental working group - the Water Asset Management Working Group (WAMWG) - of senior officers from services with water or flood risk responsibilities to develop recommendations for improving our management of flood risk. The group developed a 33-point Action Plan which was approved by senior elected members and senior officers in July 2005 and led to an additional £1.1m of revenue funding being provided to implement the Action Plan’s recommendations. Although this work is on-going, the services represented on WAMWG have made consistently good progress in implementing the recommendations towards making the city more resilient to flood risk management.

The Council can confirm that the base dates are January 2013 for the ‘The Economic Viability Study (EVS)’ (CD2/12) and May 2014 for the ‘EVS Position Update’ (May 2014) (CD2/13). Both documents contributed towards the Adopted Core Strategy and the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). 2. Provide Inspectors with list of sites where landowners have indicated a preference for housing rather than employment/office as identified /proposed to be allocated in the Plan. The Council refers the Inspector to the Examination webpage – document HD1 which specifies all this information. 3. Reference was made to The Inclusive Growth Strategy at the hearings. The Council informed the Inspectors of errors within it. The Council to liaise with Thorp Arch Trading Estate (TATE) to establish the status of the Inclusive Growth Strategy in respect of the trading estate. Please see Appendix 1. 3a. Although any discussion was deferred to Stage 2, a Statement of Common Ground in relation to the status of the Inclusive Growth Strategy, between the Council and TATE, would be welcomed, before the beginning of the Stage 2 Hearings.

  • 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Study Area 1.2 Flood Investigation Study Overview
    1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Study Area Wyke Beck is a left bank tributary of the River Aire situated in the east of Leeds, from its source in Roundhay Park it runs in a generally southerly direction to its confluence with the River Aire, as shown on Figure 1.1. The beck is approximately 9km long from Waterloo Lake to its confluence with the River Aire (10.5km long including the tributaries which feed into the Waterloo and Upper Lakes) and has a catchment area of approximately 28km2. The majority of the catchment is heavily urbanised, with some open areas of parks, playing fields and a small amount of rural fields. Properties were flooded by the Wyke Beck in August 2004, May 2005 and June 2007, and there was also a ‘near miss’ event in January 2008. However there is not an extensive history of property flooding from the beck. The majority of the properties which flooded in these recent events are located in the Dunhill Estate. The frequency and extent of these flood events has led the Environment Agency to look into developing a flood scheme for the Wyke Beck. 1.2 Flood Investigation Study Overview and Objectives This Flood Investigation Study follows on from the Stage 1 Study carried out by Royal Haskoning in January 2008. The Stage 1 Study highlighted the need for a thorough review of the existing hydraulic model and an understanding of the causes of the flooding from the Wyke Beck before any options could be investigated further. This study focuses on reviewing the hydraulic model and updating it so that it accurately represents the flooding which was observed during the three recent flood events.
