    A Beginner's Guide to Boating on Inland Waterways

    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. We are responsible for maintaining the waterways and locks, providing services for boaters and we licence and manage boats. There are more than 20 smaller navigation authorities across the country. We have included information on some of these smaller organisations.

    Sow and Penk Internal Drainage Board (IDB) BAP Area Monitoring

    Sow and Penk Internal Drainage Board (IDB) BAP area monitoring River Sow floodplain ©Matt Jones Baseline monitoring February 2016 Introduction The IDB has a direct capacity to exercise control over a number of watercourses within the Sow and Penk area (see Map 1), it is therefore of principal importance to suitably monitor the effect of work carried out on IDB maintained watercourses to assess its impact on the biodiversity of the wider riparian environment. To effectively monitor ecological systems in order to develop and deliver beneficial policies and practices, baseline data must be gathered to provide a benchmark to measure fluctuations in habitats or species populations over time (OECD, 2001), particularly in relation to appropriate habitat management and reducing biodiversity loss. Staffordshire Wildlife Trust has been commissioned to monitor the extent of Water vole Arvicola amphibious and Flowering-rush Butomus umbellatus to help the IDB fulfil its duty conserve biodiversity. Current baseline data A desktop study was carried out using Staffordshire Ecological Records (SER) ecological records database to output all existing records of Flowering-rush B. umbellatus and European Water Vole A. amphibious within the Sow and Penk IDB Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) area. The current available data originates from a number of sources and surveys, notably records from structured surveys and monitoring including, but not limited to Staffordshire Mammal Group surveys, structured surveys carried out by Staffordshire Wildlife Trust and surveys undertaken as part of the data collection for the Flora of Staffordshire (Hawksford, et al., 2011). This data will form a primary baseline from which data collected through future surveys can be compared to monitor populations of A.

    Iwa Submission on the Environment Bill – Appendix A

    IWA SUBMISSION ON THE ENVIRONMENT BILL – APPENDIX A IWA VISION FOR SUSTAINABLE PROPULSION ON THE INLAND WATERWAYS EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW 1. Recognising the UK Government’s strategy to reduce emissions from diesel and petrol engines, IWA formed its Sustainable Propulsion Group in 2019 to identify and monitor developments which will enable boats on the inland waterways to fully contribute to the Government’s stated aim of zero CO2 emissions by 2050. 2. The Group has identified a number potential solutions that it recommends should be progressed in order to ensure that boats used on the inland waterways do not get left behind in technological developments. These are outlined in more detail in this paper. 3. To ensure that the inland waterways continue to be sustainable for future generations, and continue to deliver benefits to society and the economy, IWA has concluded that national, devolved and local government should progress the following initiatives: Investment in infrastructure through the installation of 300 shore power mains connection charging sites across the connected inland waterways network. This would improve air quality by reducing the emissions from stoves for heating and engines run for charging batteries, as well as enabling a move towards more boats with electric propulsion. Working with navigation authorities, investment in a national dredging programme across the inland waterways to make propulsion more efficient. This will also have additional environmental benefits on water quality and increasing capacity for flood waters. Research and investment into the production, use and distribution of biofuels. This will be necessary to reduce the environmental impact of existing diesel engines which, given their longevity, will still be around until well after 2050.

The manage­ ment of the Union is celebrated for its admirable blending of economy and liberality ; and in 1850, the Poor Law Inspector of the district informed the Guardians that out of 38 Unions under his inspection, Penkridge had the smallest amount of taxation per acre, and gave the largest average amount cl relief to individual paupers.

Watch the meeting Members present: Julian Knight (Chair); Tulip Siddiq; Alex Sobel; Giles Watling. Appearing in public session: On behalf of the Promoter: Neil Cameron, QC, Counsel; David Thomas, Chief Executive, Chief Engineer and Clerk to the Middle Level Commissioners; Chris Howes, Chair of the Peterborough Branch of the Inland Waterways Association. Petitioners: Pamela Smith, National Bargee Travellers Association; Nigel Moore; Derek Paice; Christopher Taylor. (at 2.02) 1 CHAIR: Welcome, everybody. This is the Opposed Bill Committee for the private Bill being promoted by the Middle Level Commissioners. Our role is to listen to the arguments brought before us by the Promoters on the one hand and the Petitioners on the other and decide to approve the Bill as it now stands, determine that its need has not been proven, or approve it subject to amendments set down. 2 I will begin with some housekeeping, if I may. Please turn off your mobile phones—I am now furiously trying to remember whether I have turned mine off. If the bell rings for a Division in the House, which is very unlikely, the Committee will suspend for approximately 15 minutes; you can remain seated during that time. Counsel, I know you are probably used to standing to present your case, but it is perfectly acceptable for you to sit—as you can see, the confines of the Committee Room are quite tight. Please will everyone speak up, and speak clearly, for the benefit of the Hansard reporters and of anyone in the room who may be hard of hearing? A full transcript will be made available a few hours after each session, courtesy of Hansard.

An assessment of the effectiveness of existing legal powers in enabling navigation authorities to achieve their full potential About AINA AINA is the industry body in Great Britain for those authorities with statutory or other legal responsibility for the management and operation of navigable inland waterways for navigation and wider uses. There are 21 AINA members drawn from the public, private and third sectors. They include British Waterways and the Environment Agency which are publicly owned and receive grant-in-aid from government, in addition to the Broads Authority, national park authorities, local government authorities, private canal companies, internal drainage boards, and a variety of public and charitable trusts. Most AINA members are defined as navigation authorities by their own AINA Acts of Parliament (some of them centuries old) which regulate the operation of their waterways. Others, such as local government Fearns Wharf authorities, have inherited the status of navigation authority through Neptune Street various statutes.
