  • BRAM Team Review 2020
    BRAM TEAM Review of 2019 – 2020 BRAM Team Report for Bath Group AGM – November 2020 BRAM Team installed 11 gates in the first 5 months of this reporting period, as well as 7 waymark posts, 6 bridge boards, 35 steps and some other sundry tasks. Oh! And we cleared about 900 metres of path. And then came “lockdown” … … So, we washed our hands, figured out how to do our shopping and went on our “daily exercise walks”. Meanwhile BRAM Shears & Secateurs Team members were allowed to continue monitoring and clearing of vegetation on their Promoted Routes provided it was within their daily walk from home. And then Ramblers’ Central Office withdrew insurance for that as well. … … Gradually the Shears & Secateurs Team were “allowed” to restart when they felt it was appropriate (some did, some didn’t) and I submitted a rather patchy “annual report” to BathNES Local Authority. In August we were “allowed” to re-start BRAM Team activities and we had to figure out how to work in a “Covid secure” way. This involves keeping a greater distance between team members than normal. So we have been doing LOTS more clearance (about 2300 metres in 3 months) and we have figured out a method of installing sign posts (9), steps (16), bridge boards (6), and stoned 5 metres of path whilst staying “distanced” from each other. We have not re-started gate installation again yet as that may involve working closer together (plus BathNES have run out of stock of gates). Our “annual get-together”, usually in October was cancelled and so the highlight of our year has been our Civic Reception at the Mayor’s Parlour in Bath in January.

  • FRACKING in NORTH-EAST SOMERSET HOW MANY WELLS and WHERE MIGHT THEY BE? the Present Government Is Keen to Promote an American St
    FRACKING IN NORTH-EAST SOMERSET HOW MANY WELLS AND WHERE MIGHT THEY BE? The present government is keen to promote an American style unconventional gas revolution in Britain. This could mean big industry moving into our neighbourhood with the attendant disruption, potential risks, and effect on house prices. Parts of Somerset have been licensed for exploration and development. Industry interest has focused primarily on coalbed methane (CBM) with shale gas as a secondary possibility. Fracking may be used for both. Extraction of CBM is likely to be occur much nearer the surface than shale. How many wells & where? In 2000 the American CBM company GeoMet Inc.evaluated the CBM potential of the 400 km2 area shown in Fig. 1 Its report was retrieved from publicly available sources by Frack Free Chew Valley (FFCV) and is available with a detailed commentary. [Coalbed Methane Exploration in Somerset, the Chew Valley, Keynsham & the Mendip Hills https://frackfreecv.files.wordpress.com/2014/09/unconventionalgasexplorationinsomerset_160614b.pd f ] Most of the information here comes from that report where full detail and references should be sought. In its 2000 assessment GeoMet decided to concentrate on areas with coal measures at optimum depth , shown in grey in Fig. 1, and to exclude urban areas and areas where the coal had been previously worked. There seems to be no reason why CBM might not be extracted from other coal seams, but it appears that GeoMet first concentrated on the least complicated areas. This "developable" area, 108 km2 , GeoMet stated, could "accommodate" about 300 gas wells. Fig. 1 gives an indication of their location, according to FFCV's assumption of even distribution.
