  • Groundwater Level and Quality Monitoring in Wales: An
    Natural Resources Wales’ monitoring networks for groundwater level and quality Authors: David A Jones1 Gareth J Farr2 1Natural Resources Wales (formerly Environment Agency Wales) Ty Cambria, 29 Newport Road, Cardiff, CF24 0TP 2Present address: British Geological Survey, Columbus House, Greenmeadow Springs, Tongwynlais, Cardiff, CF15 7NE Introduction Natural Resources Wales, which was formed in April 2013, has taken over the functions of the Countryside Council for Wales, Environment Agency Wales and Forestry Commission Wales, as well as some functions of Welsh Government. Its purpose is to ensure that the natural resources of Wales are sustainably maintained, enhanced and used, now and in the future. This includes ensuring that the quality of groundwater, surface water and coastal waters continues to improve. In Wales, groundwater only contributes around 3% of the total public water supply (Environment Agency, 2008a). However, it is still an important resource in rural areas where records held by local authorities identify at least 21,000 private water supplies, typically comprising shallow wells, boreholes and spring sources. Groundwater also provides baseflow to rivers and groundwater dependent wetlands. Therefore it is important that sufficient data is available to understand, manage, protect, forecast and report on the quality and availability of groundwater. 1 Since 2000 the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) (WFD) has been the key driver for monitoring groundwater levels and quality. The data that is collected is used to define the status of groundwater in both quantitative and chemical terms as either ‘good’ or ‘poor’. Data is also needed to inform decisions on groundwater protection, abstraction licensing, groundwater modelling and other local investigations.

  • Natural Resources Wales Response
    UKCCC Call for Evidence - Welsh Carbon Budgets – Natural Resources Wales response In responding to this consultation we have internally discussed our response through a series of meetings post the recent UKCCC/Welsh Government workshop held in Cardiff, which has resulted in the delay in submission, but we believe this has been time well spent. Our response has been very helpfully informed by the workshop on the consultation and we have also given regard where relevant to the similar discussions and decisions that we were involved with during the development of the Climate Change Strategy for Wales in 2009- 2010. Question 1: Is it better for carbon budgets be set on percentage or absolute terms, given that the interim targets are set as percentages? ANSWER: As the UKCCC has set out in this consultation there are pros and cons to both approaches. We believe that the decision should be informed by an understanding of the likelihood or risk of future significant changes in the emissions data in the NAEI. Given that there have been very substantial changes since 1999 with both increases and decreases in the 1990 baseline, with a general increase in baseline emissions due to refinement of the estimation of emissions, we are of the view that there is a continuing risk of significant changes, even though those involved in the management of the NAEI expressed a ‘gut feeling’ of less change going forward at the recent WG/UKCCC workshop. NRW has been undertaking work with Forest Research to assess the current and future net carbon status of the NRW/WG Woodland Estate using the Carbine model and this refined modelling has led to significant changes to our understanding of the net carbon status of our estate (which represents around half of Welsh woodlands).

    Ein cyf/Our ref: CX19-085 Ty Cambria / Cambria House 29 Heol Casnewydd / 29 Newport Road Caerdydd / Cardiff CF24 0TP / CF24 0TP Ebost/Email: Ffôn/Phone: 7 May 2019 By email: Ms Rachel Fletcher Chief Executive Ofwat Centre City Tower 7 Hill Street Birmingham B5 4UA Dear Rachel, Following the recent launch of Ofwat’s draft vision and strategy for the water sector and ahead of the PR19 draft determination in July, I am writing to thank your staff for their ongoing engagement with Natural Resources Wales (NRW). This continued dialogue is important to both our organisations in terms of building a common understanding of current and future challenges for the water sector and the development of sustainable solutions. I think it would be useful for us to meet and have asked my office to work with yours to find a suitable date. At this important point in the current PR19 price review, I would like to take the opportunity to set out NRW’s key concerns in relation to water and sewerage company planning in Wales. Under the Environment Act (Wales) 2016 all public authorities, including water companies, have a duty to maintain and enhance biodiversity and in so doing promote the resilience of ecosystems. The Act also emphasises NRW’s role as the principal regulator for natural resources in Wales, including the provisioning and regulating ecosystem services associated with water abstraction and sewage treatment. Our purpose is to pursue the sustainable management of natural resources in relation to Wales and apply the principles of sustainable management of natural resources in the exercise of our functions.

There are wide and open views across the bay, with the cliffs and headlands of the south and north coasts containing the view. The beaches such as Newgale are popular surfing locations with associated holiday accommodation, with some lowland valleys and low rolling pastoral hills in the hinterland. Large ships at anchor deeper in the bay are visible from the shore. Key Characteristics Long sandy beaches interspersed with cliffs and rocky foreshores. Low rolling hills running back from the coast are mainly pasture with some arable, with some narrow wooded valleys and the flat valley of Brandy Brook with marsh vegetation. The sea is relatively exposed to westerly winds, with strong surf over long shallow beaches. Drying or submerged rocks are boating hazards. Popular visitor destination with small coastal settlements and associated visitor facilities such as cafes, holiday homes and caravan/camping parks. Popular beaches for surfing, swimming and beach activities with some dinghy sailing, rowing, kayaking and jet skis. Fishing includes beach seining and beach nets, set nets, lobster and crab potting.
