Mawgan Porth Coastal Change Study Report| C Jones Enterprise Ltd Ordnance Survey Plan Published 1974 Source map scale - 1:10,000 The historical maps shown were reproduced from maps predominantly held at the scale adopted for England, Wales and Scotland in the 1840`s. In 1854 the 1:2,500 scale was adopted for mapping urban areas; these maps were used to update the 1:10,560 maps. The published date given therefore is often some years later than the surveyed date. Before 1938, all OS maps were based on the Cassini Projection, with independent surveys of a single county or group of counties, giving rise to significant inaccuracies in outlying areas. In the late 1940`s, a Provisional Edition was produced, which updated the 1:10,560 mapping from a number of sources. The maps appear unfinished - with all military camps and other strategic sites removed. These maps were initially overprinted with the National Grid. In 1970, the first 1:10,000 maps were produced using the Transverse Mercator Projection. The revision process continued until recently, with new editions appearing every 10 years or so for urban areas.

There are two notable features along the undefended coast covered under this policy unit, namely Trevelgue Cliff Castle at Trevelgue Head and Bedruthan Steps, just north of Mawgan Porth. Trevelgue Cliff Castle is an important pre-historic settlement site (see inset map, right) and there have been some erosion concerns for this feature prior to the SMP review. The erosion mapping does not indicate that extensive risk from erosion is anticipated for the feature, but that does not discount the fact that isolated, discrete cliff falls may affect the site in the future, as they are a feature of this section of cliffed coastline. Bedruthan Steps are a geological feature of the coastline (although Redcliff Cliff Castle is also present at the site). The Steps are a popular visitor attraction throughout the year (owned and managed by the National Trust). Bedruthan Steps Although erosion risk per se is low, there are likely to be impacts on the foreshore Steps features, due to rising sea levels causing greater depth and wave height closer to the base of the cliffs. Although these natural risks are identified for both features, no active intervention is still considered the suitable policy choice through all three epochs. There is a possibility of some cliff recession adjacent to Hotel and Car Park at Watergate Bay. Although the geology is generally hard and resistant along this stretch of coastline, there are relatively frequent examples of cliff falls at discrete locations throughout the Bay from Trevelgue Head, Whipsiderry Beach, Watergate Beach and through to Beryl’s Point. Very limited assets are thought to be at risk (see inset map right) but the no active intervention approach should not preclude the privately funded maintenance of the short section of defences (recently upgraded/improved) which are Watergate present adjacent to the access point Bay onto Watergate Beach. The importance of these to the local economy is recognised. Studies (Haskoning, 2009) have concluded that they would not be detrimental to the wider beach and cliff processes given their relative insignificant length within the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly SMP2 Final Report Chapter 4 PDZ13 12 February 2011 overall extensive Watergate Bay frontage. Flood inundation is not an issue at Watergate due to the steeply rising topography. At Mawgan Porth, erosion and flooding risk place significant future pressure on the frontage and as such drive the preferred plan and policy. Erosion extent by 2105 could be as much as 35-40 metres and flood extents will increase up to the normal tidal limit of the River Menalhyl which discharges onto Mawgan Porth beach (see inset map, left). Assets at the rear of the beach are presently already subject to high flood risk due to wave overtopping action and this will only increase into the future. The B3276 road is a local through route, but it also is vulnerable. Given the present days risks, it is prudent that the preferred plan looks to initiate a managed realignment approach from epoch 1 onwards. The coastal changes will therefore be significant to this community, requiring re-routing of the B3276, and possible relocation of the commercial hub of the community. As such Land Use Planners should consider identifying this as a Coastal Change Management Area.

  • River Water Quality 1992 Classification by Determinand
    N f\A - S oo-Ha (jO$*\z'3'Z2 Environmental Protection Final Draft Report RIVER WATER QUALITY 1992 CLASSIFICATION BY DETERMINAND May 1993 Water Quality Technical Note FWS/93/005 Author: R J Broome Freshwater Scientist NRA CV.M. Davies National Rivers A h ority Environmental Protection Manager South West Region RIVER WATER QUALITY 1992 CLASSIFICATION BY DETERMINAND 1. INTRODUCTION River water quality is monitored in 34 catchments in the region. Samples are collected at a minimum frequency of once a month from 422 watercourses at 890 locations within the Regional Monitoring Network. Each sample is analysed for a range of chemical and physical determinands. These sample results are stored in the Water Quality Archive. A computerised system assigns a quality class to each monitoring location and associated upstream river reach. This report contains the results of the 1992 river water quality classifications for each determinand used in the classification process. 2. RIVER WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT The assessment of river water quality is by comparison of current water quality against River Quality Objectives (RQO's) which have been set for many river lengths in the region. Individual determinands have been classified in accordance with the requirements of the National Water Council (NWC) river classification system which identifies river water quality as being one of five classes as shown in Table 1 below: TABLE 1 NATIONAL WATER COUNCIL - CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM CLASS DESCRIPTION 1A Good quality IB Lesser good quality 2 Fair quality 3 Poor quality 4 Bad quality The classification criteria used for attributing a quality class to each criteria are shown in Appendix 1.

These areas have their own objectives and standards. Article 4 of the Water Framework Directive requires Member States to achieve compliance with the standards and objectives set for each protected area by 22 December 2015, unless otherwise specified in the Community legislation under which the protected area was established. Some areas may require special protection under more than one EC Directive or may have additional (surface water and/or groundwater) objectives. In these cases, all the objectives and standards must be met. Article 6 requires Member States to establish a register of protected areas. The types of protected areas that must be included in the register are: • areas designated for the abstraction of water for human consumption (Drinking Water Protected Areas); • areas designated for the protection of economically significant aquatic species (Freshwater Fish and Shellfish); • bodies of water designated as recreational waters, including areas designated as Bathing Waters; • nutrient-sensitive areas, including areas identified as Nitrate Vulnerable Zones under the Nitrates Directive or areas designated as sensitive under Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD); • areas designated for the protection of habitats or species where the maintenance or improvement of the status of water is an important factor in their protection including relevant Natura 2000 sites1.

Introduction This report contains the results of applying the chemical GQA Scheme to data collected during 1992-1994 from the freshwater stretches of rivers in Cornwall Area; these results are referred to as the 1994 assessment This assessment uses all routine samples taken between 1 January 1992 and 31 December 1994 as part of the annual GQA monitoring programmes. It is calculated from measurements of the concentrations of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total ammonia and dissolved oxygen. 2. Background The GQA Scheme is the NRA classification system designed to show trends in water quality over time; full details of the Scheme are given elsewhere!. It has been introduced to replace the use of the National Water Council (NWC) Scheme for this purpose.
