  • The Tame Catchment Management Plan
    Severn-Trent 37 % THE TAME CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSULTATION REPORT SUMMARY JANUARY 1996 NRA National Rivers Authority Severn-Trent Region The National Rivers Authority’s aims are to conserve and enhance the natural water environment and to reduce the risk of flooding. In our role as ‘Guardians of the Water Environment’, we are committed to ensuring the sustainable development of the region’s river catchments. To help us achieve this, we are producing a catchment management plan for the River Tame. This booklet is a summary of the Consultation Report. The Tame catchment is described and we identify the problems and opportuni­ ties which face the catchment. We call these issues and 29 have been highlighted, which we think need to be considered if the water envi­ ronment is to be improved. This is the beginning of the catchment planning process and we want your views and comments. After we have considered everybody’s comments we will produce an action plan for the next five years. This plan will be implemented by the Environment Agency, the successor to the NRA, which will be formed on the 1st of April 1996.

Management and Action Plan 36 Aims of Service 36 Forward Kingsbury Water Park is Warwickshire’s premier waterside attraction and the jewel in the crown of Warwickshire’s Country Parks. The water park has come a very long way since the cessation of gravel extraction that originally formed the lakes and pools back in the 1970s. The transformation of this despoiled landscape into a valued community asset is an excellent example of sustainable development. Today the Park is so many things to so many people. For some, simply a place for quiet recreation or to get close to nature, while for others it is about sport and exercise or joining in with events, volunteering, fishing and more. The park is also a gateway to the growing number of outdoor leisure destinations in North Warwickshire as well as being a vital part of the diverse ecology of the Tame Valley. Following the announcement of the Y route by HS2 Ltd, it is clear that the route will pass through the water park to the south of the M42.
