    27 Valley Meadows and Fens EP/Edit1/02.08.10 Valley Meadows and Fens Key Characteristics • Flat, narrow, river valley bottoms • Deep peat or mixtures of peat and sandy deposits • Ancient meres within the valley bottoms & important fen sites • Small grassland fields, bounded by dykes running at right angles to the main river Sparse scattering of small alder carr & plantation • woodlands • Part of a wider estate type landscape • Largely unsettled, except for the occasional farmstead • Drier fields turned over to the production of arable crops • Cattle grazing now often peripheral to commercial agriculture • Loss to scrub encroachment, tree planting and horse paddocks Location This landscape type occurs in two main areas of the county: • In the north-west in the valleys of the River Lark (from Mildenhall upstream to Ampton) and of the Black Bourn (from Euston to Pakenham and Norton) • In the north-east in the east-flowing valleys of the Hundred River (Rushmere to Ellough), the Wang (Wolsey Bridge to Uggeshall), the Blyth (Bulcamp to Heveningham and along a tributary to Bramfield), and the Minsmere River or Yox (Eastbridge to Sibton). Geology, landform and soils These landscapes comprise flat, narrow, river valley bottoms, those in the east having deep peat deposits, except in the higher reaches the Yox and the Hundred River. In the west, deep peat is limited to parts of the Lark, with mixtures of peat and sandy deposits Suffolk Landscape Character Assessment 27 Valley Meadows and Fens EP/Edit1/02.08.10 elsewhere. Occasionally there are ancient meres within the valley bottoms, for example at Micklemere in Pakenham, and at Livermere.

  • Introduction
    Sizewell C, Stage 4 Consultation Response Saturday, September 21, 2019 EDF ENERGY - SIZEWELL C - STAGE 4 PRE-APPLICATION CONSULTATION RESPONSE FROM THEBERTON AND EASTBRIDGE PARISH COUNCIL Introduction Theberton Theberton is a small village of approximately 170 people and 90 houses mostly straddling the B1122. It is about 4 miles north of the proposed Sizewell C (SZC) large twin reactor site. The proposed entrance to the main site will be approximately 1 mile from the village entrance sign. Within the village of Theberton there is St Peters Church, a Grade I listed thatched roof church with an unusual round tower, a Grade II listed public house, a village hall, two working farms, a cattery, a small business selling wild bird and other animal feeds, a small caravan park and other places to stay for visitors to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. The successful village hall offers many activities and classes to the community and surrounding areas. Eastbridge Eastbridge is a tranquil hamlet of around 70 people and 40 houses nestled in a rural landscape with no street signs or speed limits. It borders the Minsmere River which cuts through an area of important wetland known as the Minsmere Levels forming part of the Minsmere - Walberswick Heaths and Marshes Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), which is also the location of RSPB Minsmere Reserve. Within Eastbridge there is a public house, the Eels Foot Inn, a working farm, a certified and a basic campsite, for visitors to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. Many local people and visitors enjoy the circular walk from Eastbridge to the Minsmere sluice to reach the Suffolk Heritage Coast and the sea returning through RSPB Minsmere or via National Trust’s Dunwich Coastguards Cottages.

Migrants were late arriving and even our birds were slow to start breeding. But once the good weather arrived it started to get off the ground very quickly. By July butterflies were everywhere with lots of peacocks and small tortoiseshell, large and small whites, much to Mel’s dismay as they found our cabbage plants irresistible.

  • Read the Response from Friends of the Earth Sizewell C
    E: [email protected] www.scoastalfoe.com Members’ responses to Sizewell C Stage 3 consultation 1. SIZEWELL C PROPOSALS OVERALL Friends of the Earth are opposed to civil nuclear power because of its association with nuclear weapons and because there is still no satisfactory answer to the problem of the waste, some of which will not degrade for 240,000 years – far longer than modern humans have walked this planet. It is not possible to ‘dispose’ of nuclear waste. There are many other reasons for objecting to Sizewell C, some of which are described below. Policy context Chapter 3 of volume 1 Stage 3 Consultation refers to the planning policy context and the need for nuclear power. However, the government’s energy policy as stated in EN-6, published in 2011, is now out of date and this is currently being revised. Since then renewable forms of energy have overtaken nuclear in terms of cost and speed of construction, showing that nuclear is now old-fashioned. The government’s statement that the need for nuclear power is ‘urgent’ is clearly false, as the lights have not gone out. The reality is that there is no need for nuclear. Finance Nuclear power is hugely expensive and it is our belief that the public should not have to pay for it through subsidies, guarantees and insurances. Decommissioning and storage of waste need to be factored in. It is still unclear how EDF and CGN will raise the funds to pay for Sizewell C. We cannot believe that it is possible to build a copy of Hinkley Point C at Sizewell at 20% less the cost, bearing in mind that the site for the reactors is a marsh as opposed to a rocky foundation.

Please bring this copy. Ce document ne sera plus distribué en réunion. Prière de vous munir de cet exemplaire. T-PVS/DE (2018) 14 - 2 - INTRODUCTION The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, by means of its Resolution (79) 13, awarded the European Diploma for Protected Areas category "A" to the Minsmere Nature Reserve (United Kingdom) at its meeting of 13th September 1979. It was renewed in 1984, 1989, 2004 and 2009. For the last renewal no appraisal visit was took place. Having regard to the decision of the Group of Specialists on the European Diploma for Protected Areas at its meeting of 21-22 February 2018 to perform on-the-spot appraisal visits to areas subject to EDPA renewal in 2019, the undersigned was invited as independent expert to carry out the visit to Minsmere Reserve in the United Kingdom. The objective stated was "to assess whether the conditions of the site remain the same as when the Diploma was awarded and extended, or whether they have improved or deteriorated", following the provisions of the Terms of Reference stated in Appendix 3 of Resolution CM/ResDip(2008)1 on the revised regulations for the European Diploma for Protected Areas.

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 1 relevant Natura 2000 sites.

Decisions relating to development often impinge considerably upon landscape, changing and altering it. Landscape as an entity is not static but is constantly changing and developing. It is anticipated that this study will be referred to by Development Control, developers, Parish Councils, members of the public and all others responsible for, or interested in development within the District. What is Landscape Character Assessment? Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) in its most basic form is a process of assessing the particular features (individual items such as churches) and elements (general items such as hills) within landscapes which make one landscape different from another.
