  • Dorset & South Wiltshire
    Groundwater Situation Report Wessex (Dorset & South Wiltshire) Update 12th September 2017 Current situation Current forecast risk of groundwater flooding There are currently no groundwater flood alerts for Salisbury Plain, Cranborne Chase and the West of Dorset. The latest summary of the water situation in the South West, giving details of the rainfall, groundwater levels and river flows, can found on the GOV.UK website. The link to these pages is below: August finished much drier than it started. Overall for the month the long term average (LTA) for August was ‘normal’ at 95% LTA, 62 mm. The rivers responded well to the rainfall and most flows reflect the geographical distribution of the rainfall, drier in the north and west and wetter in the south and east. Most rivers are now ‘normal’ for the time of year though South Newton on the groundwater dominated Chalk is ‘below normal’ for the time of year. The groundwater sites show a mixed response with some groundwater sites responding to the wetter than average summer, 134% LTA, whilst others on the Chalk and Greater Oolite are still ‘notably low. Several boreholes have received significant recharge this month and were still increasing at month end others while still receding are doing so at a lower rate. Sites on the Greater Oolite and Chalk are ‘notably low’ for the time of year. Many others are ‘normal’ with the exception of Kingston Russell Road, situated in the West Dorset catchment, which was ‘notably high’. In the West of Dorset, the level at the Kingston Russell borehole, on 12/09/2017, was 105.760 metres above sea level (mAOD).

  • FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (Please See Relevant Headings for Each B+ Council Area)
    Blandford+ Neighbourhood Plan The councils of Bryanston, Blandford St Mary and Blandford Forum have been working together, since 2018, to produce the Blandford+ Neighbourhood Plan (B+NP) Version 2. Introduction 1. What is a Neighbourhood Plan and why is it important? Under the Localism Act 2011, communities, like ours, can produce a Neighbourhood Plan (NP) to have a real say (through policies) in the future of the places where we live and work, and the legal weight to decide planning matters, alongside the Dorset Council’s Local Plan. 2. What will our Neighbourhood Plan deliver? A new two-form entry primary school A community hall with health-related activities in the North of Blandford A community hall in Blandford St Mary Prevent change of use of the Bryanston Club Additional health and well-being provision Protection against future speculative development on important open green spaces Protection of the conservation areas and green spaces in the three parishes A total of 15 policies to protect and develop Blandford Forum, Blandford St Mary and Bryanston through a plan-led approach 3. What legal status will our Neighbourhood Plan have? The NP passed both statutory consultations (known as Regulation 14 and Regulation 16) and passed examination in February 2020. On 12th March this year, the Dorset Council issued a Decision Statement to say that the B+ NP could proceed to a Public Referendum on 6th May 2021. If there is a vote above 50% in favour, the NP will become statutory. Page 1 of 12 4. What happens on 6th May 2021? The Public Referendum will be held on Thursday 6th May 2021 between 7am and 10pm.

  • Village Traffic Survey 2021
    7. If you answered 'Yes' to Question 7 please give more detail in the box below There are several properties that are not well maintained where the bushes encroach onto the pavement, in some cases forcing pedestrians into the road. Also, in some locations such as Gunn Lane you find cars parked on the pavements making it difficult for pedestrians to pass, near impossible for pushchairs or wheelchairs etc. They are difficult to use as you have to keep crossing the road when they run out More that hedges aren't cut back, so as a pedestrian you are forced to walk closer to the curbs. Sloping cambers into the road. Cars being parked on the pavement Lumpy, lop sided Just the speed of traffic going through the village and overtaking outside forum school and using phone at same time absolutely disgusting the flashing system at the beginning of the villag has made no difference at all Broken glass. Overgrown hedges. The paths nee be made more even Narrow and uneven Drain covers lifting up by school I have to use my lane as a pavement. The edge is very potholed and dangerous when wet as you do not know how deep the hole is! (Hine Town Lane) The pavement is not usable to its full width due to overhanging hedges Overgrown hedges at various points push pedestrians towards the road where some speeding traffic makes you feel very exposed In many places near us, The Cross, especially on the southern side, the pavements are both very narrow and dangerously uneven.

CONCLUSIONS In 1992 (as in 1989 and 1991) TEKNAR HP-D (Bti) was found to be an effective simuliicide when used against the larvae of Simuliwn posticatum under the conditions prevailing in the River Stour. Laboratory tests using larvae of Sitnulium posticaturn showed that the approved concentration (0.8 ppm for ten minutes) of Bri (used in the preceding year's trials) was still effective but that a lesser concentration (0.4 ppm for ten minutes) substantially reduced mortality (77%) showing that the permitted dose is approaching the lowest effective concentration. Following preliminary surveys, six sites on the main river were selected for treatment and the furthest upstream (Blandford) and the penultimate downstream (Wimborne) of these were used for monitoring the effects of treatment. Current meter measurements were used to calculate discharges and to permit suitable dilutions of Bti to be achieved.
