  • 1 Marine Scotland. Draft Sectoral Plan for Offshore Wind
    Marine Scotland. Draft Sectoral Plan for Offshore Wind (Dec 2019) Supplementary Advice to SNH Consultation Response (25 March 2020). SNH Assessment of Potential Seascape, Landscape and Visual Impacts and Provision of Design Guidance This document sets out SNH’s Landscape and Visual Impact appraisal of each of the Draft Plan Option (DPO) areas presented in the above consultation and the opportunities for mitigating these, through windfarm siting and design. Due to its size, we are submitting it separately from our main response to the draft Plan. We had hoped to be able to submit this earlier within the consultation period and apologise that this was delayed slightly. Our advice is in three parts: Part 1. Context and Approach taken to Assessment Part 2. DPO Assessment and Design Guidance Part 3. DPO Assessment and Design Guidance: Supporting Maps Should you wish to discuss any of the matters raised in our response we would be pleased to do so. Please contact George Lees at [email protected] / 01738 44417. PART 1. CONTEXT AND APPROACH TAKEN TO ASSESSMENT Background 1. In late spring 2018 SNH were invited to participate as part of a Project Steering group to input to the next Sectoral Plan for Offshore Wind Energy by Marine Scotland. SNH landscape advisors with Marine Energy team colleagues recognised this as a real opportunity to manage on-going, planned change from offshore wind at the strategic and regional level, to safeguard nationally important protected landscapes and distinctive coastal landscape character. It also reflected our ethos of encouraging well designed sustainable development of the right scale in the right place and as very much part of early engagement.

  • Chairman's Report, 2015/16
    LOWTHER HILLS SKI CLUB Chairman's Report, 2015/16 1. Thank you Last season 2015/16 was the second season of operations of Lowther Hills Ski Club. Two years ago, in November 2014, we were at Rab Paul's garage, greasing and welding the pylons of the ski tow that we had just brought from Harwood. At this point, we did not have any facilities on Lowther Hill, or the permission to run any skiing facilities on the hill. Before going through last year's achievements, let us remember that the Lowther Hills Ski Club is run by volunteers and gratitude should be expressed to all those who have contributed in different ways to make this happen. Building a snowfence, servicing the quad bike, designing a ski pass, welcoming visitors at the nursery slope... in the past two years over 100 people have helped the Ski Club in different capacities. This makes Lowther Hills the largest volunteer-based ski development in Scotland since Scottish Ski Club members created Glencoe in the 1950s. What we are doing is inspiring many people. To everybody, members who support Lowther Hills Ski Club with their membership, people who have donated towards the Club's crowdfunders, and volunteers who give unpaid hours of their time and work for the common good, thank you for making this happen. 2. Membership and volunteers Lowther Hills Ski Club closed the season 2015/16 with 232 members. 50% of the membership is based in the Lowther Hills and surrounding areas of Biggar, Lanark and Nithsdale. The highest concentration of members (30%) is in the Lowther villages of Leadhills and Wanlockhead, where the Ski Club remains the most popular local group in terms of membership numbers (most local families with children are members of the Club).
