    Ti r A Beginner’s Guide To Boating On Inland Waterways Take to the water with British Waterways and the National Rivers Authority With well over 4,000 km (2,500 miles) of rivers and canals to explore, from the south west of England up to Scotland, our inland waterways offer plenty of variety for both the casual boater and the dedicated enthusiast. If you have ever experienced the pleasures of 'messing about on boats', you will know what a wealth of scenery and heritage inland waterways open up to us, and the unique perspective they provide. Boating is fun and easy. This pack is designed to help you get afloat if you are thinking about buying a boat. Amongst other useful information, it includes details of: Navigation Authorities British Waterways (BW) and the National Rivers Authority (NRA), which is to become part of the new Environment Agency for England and Wales on 1 April 1996, manage most of our navigable rivers and canals.

  • Podolak Multifunctional Riverscapes
    Multifunctional Riverscapes: Stream restoration, Capability Brown’s water features, and artificial whitewater By Kristen Nicole Podolak A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Professor Louise Mozingo Professor Vincent H. Resh Spring 2012 i Abstract Multifunctional Riverscapes by Kristen Nicole Podolak Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Society is investing in river restoration and urban river revitalization as a solution for sustainable development. Many of these river projects adopt a multifunctional planning and design approach that strives to meld ecological, aesthetic, and recreational functions. However our understanding of how to accomplish multifunctionality and how the different functions work together is incomplete. Numerous ecologically justified river restoration projects may actually be driven by aesthetic and recreational preferences that are largely unexamined. At the same time river projects originally designed for aesthetics or recreation are now attempting to integrate habitat and environmental considerations to make the rivers more sustainable. Through in-depth study of a variety of constructed river landscapes - including dense historical river bend designs, artificial whitewater, and urban stream restoration this dissertation analyzes how aesthetic, ecological, and recreational functions intersect and potentially conflict. To explore how aesthetic and biophysical processes work together in riverscapes, I explored the relationship between one ideal of beauty, an s-curve illustrated by William Hogarth in the 18th century and two sets of river designs: 18th century river designs in England and late 20th century river restoration designs in North America.

Box 7360, 25 Cosey Road West Trenton, NJ 08628 Dear Commissioners, The Delaware Riverkeeper Network (“DRN”), Clean Air Council (“CAC”), PennFuture, Environment New Jersey, PennEnvironment, River Network, Bartram’s Garden, Glen Foerd on the Delaware, Darby Creek Valley Association, and Clean Water Action (collectively, “Petitioners”) submit this petition to urge the Delaware River Basin Commission (“DRBC” or “the Commission”) to promptly upgrade the designated use of Zone 3 and River Miles 95.0 to 81.8 of Zone 4 of the Delaware Estuary to include primary contact recreation. Zone 3 and Upper Zone 4 are currently designated only for secondary contact recreation. This designation is inconsistent with the existing uses of these portions of the Delaware River. A designation that includes primary contact recreation is needed to bring DRBC into conformance with the mandates of the Clean Water Act, thereby avoiding state, federal and/or interstate conflicts over the designated and existing uses of these Delaware River waters, and protecting those recreating on and in this portion of the Delaware River. Recognizing the existing use of primary contact recreation will ensure the DRBC and the member states prioritize putting in place, and enforcing, the standards and protections essential for those who are enjoying these reaches of the River for primary contact recreation. Petitioners are organizations that serve communities who live, work, and recreate in the Delaware River Watershed and have a strong interest in seeing the public’s uses of the River protected.

  • Rules and Regulations
    UNITED STATES CANOE ASSOCIATION BYLAWS RULES AND REGULATIONS SUPPORTING A FIVE STAR PROGRAM 2019 EDITION Preface UNITED STATES CANOE ASSOCIATION, INC. Bylaws and Rules and Regulations Each year after the formation of the Association in 1968, "Bylaws" were added at each Annual meeting. Finally, it became evident that a complete revision of the Association's operating structure should occur since each change of the Bylaws required filing a revision with the Indiana Not-for-Profit Division and the Internal Revenue Service. A BYLAWS COMMITTEE was appointed to prepare a complete revision of the Bylaws of the Association. The work began in 1977 and the document was presented to the Delegates and approved at the Annual meeting of the Association January 15, 1979 at Dallas, Texas. At that time, the revision represented over 1,100 hours of work from many invaluable contributors from the Association In order to keep pace with the growth and changes of the Association, the revision of the Rules and Regulations continues to the present day. However, the Bylaws remain unchanged as the firm foundation of the Association....... Bylaws, Rules and Regulations Committee Jim Mack, Chairman (1977 - 1989) Joan Kludy Theiss, Chair (1989 - 1999) Jim Mack, Chair (1999 - 2001) Joan K. Theiss, Chair (2001 - ....) The Bylaws of our Association should never have to be changed. They are the roots of our development, and reflect our permanent, never ending philosophy. The Rules and Regulations allow better internal clarification of all aspects of the Association, permit more flexibility to facilitate the smooth function of the Association, and will provide a firm basis for resolving many questions on procedure.

Due to subsidence, presumably because of salt extraction, there are a few areas where the side of the canal has collapsed big time. These are referred to in the Nicholson canal guide as ‘wide lagoons’.
