In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management July 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Local Jon Flitney Authority Officer Department Environmental Health Address Abbotsford House, David’s Loan, Falkirk, FK2 7YZ. Telephone 01324 504950 e-mail [email protected] Report Progress Report 2010 Reference Date July 2010 2 Progress Report - 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Executive Summary A review of the Council’s monitoring data for 2009 shows that the 15-minute objective continues to be breached in the Grangemouth AQMA. In 2009 the Grangemouth Moray site recorded 65 exceedances. This is greater than the 35 allowed by the objective. All SO 2 monitors outside the AQMA met the 15-minute objective, with all sites meeting the hourly and daily SO 2 objectives. A breach of the 2010 annual PM 10 objective was recorded at the Falkirk West Bridge St site in 2009. This result will be used in the Falkirk Town Centre Further Assessment. Therefore the Council will wait for this report to be completed before considering whether to adjust the current AQMA. Since the 2009 USA the Council has declared three AQMAs for NO 2, two are in Falkirk Town Centre and one in the Haggs and Banknock area. In addition, the Banknock area near Cowdenhill Quarry remains subject to a Detailed Assessment for PM 10 . An Action Plan update for the Grangemouth AQMA is given. The Council continues to work on the measures outlined in the plan. In addition, a statement by INEOS about their tail gas treatment and other SO 2 emission reduction work is also included in this report.

  • Camelon Co-Operative Society Ltd
    Camelon Co-operative Society Ltd CAMELON CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY LTD Geoff B Bailey In the year 1857 twelve of the inhabitants of Camelon, having heard of the success of the new method of trading inaugurated by the Rochdale pioneers some eight years previously, held a meeting, and having agreed to subscribe £1 each as capital, formed themselves into the “Camelon Pioneer Industrial Society Limited” under the “Industrial and Provident Societies Act, 1850”. They rented a small shop (now demolished) on the south side of the Main Street at the corner of Deantree Terrace, and having stocked it with grocery goods as far as their limited capital would allow, opened three nights weekly, the Committee taking turns in manning the shop. The shop started business on 25 April 1858. The concept of people grouping together as a co-operative was seen as antagonistic to more open forms of commerce and some tradesmen tried to oppose it. It was probably for this reason that in August 1861 Donald McIntosh, a blacksmith at Port Downie, placed a public notice in the Falkirk Herald intimating that he had no further interest in Camelon Pioneers Industrial Society. The beginning was small, but the progress, if slow was sure. In a comparatively short time a large shop was rented and kept open for more days, and according to one history “females” were appointed to take charge of the business. Actually, it started in 1862 with a single saleswoman who seems to have been employed due to her low costs. That person was Ann Drummond, who the Falkirk Herald reported “despite youthful age” was a great asset and increased sales and membership dramatically due to her hard work.

  • May 2016 Suzanne Burgess
    May 2016 Suzanne Burgess Saving the small things that run the planet Summary The John Muir Way, opened in 2014, stretches 134 miles through nine local authority areas including Falkirk. This B-lines project, the first in Scotland, has identified new opportunities for grassland habitat creation, enhancement and management along the route of the John Muir Way as it passes through Falkirk as well as 1.86 miles either side of this. Through this mapping exercise a number of sites have been identified including 49 schools and nurseries; 19 hospitals and care homes; 64 places of worship and cemeteries; 5 historic landmarks and buildings; and 5 train stations. Additionally, 4 golf courses (215.84 ha), 172 public parks and play spaces (681.36 ha) and 1 country park (64.83 ha) were identified. There are a number of sites within this project that have nature conservation designations, including 50 Local Nature and Conservation Sites and Local Wildlife Sites (1,089.17 ha), 5 Sites of Special Scientific Interest (675.84 ha) and 2 Local Nature Reserves (83.93 ha). A further 2 sites are managed as Scottish Wildlife Trust reserves totalling 7.59 ha and 9 have previously been identified as having an Open Mosaic of Habitat on Previously Developed Land with a total of 36.52 ha. By mapping new opportunities this will aid in the future development of projects that will provide real benefits to our declining populations of pollinating insects of bees, wasps, hoverflies and butterflies as well as other wildlife that these habitats support. 1 Contents Page Page Number 1.
