INTRODUCTION Summary Baseline The majority of the Project Area is an active railway surrounded by agricultural, and to a lesser degree, residential land uses. A section of the Project Area between approximately Claydon Junction and Bletchley is a disused railway which has been colonised by semi- natural grassland, scrub and small areas of woodland. There are a large number of designated site, habitat and species ecological features in the Project Area or in close proximity to the Project Boundary. Of particular note are the following ecological features: Sheephouse Wood SSSI; A number of non-statutory Local Wildlife Sites which are designated for unimproved neutral or calcareous grassland; Mosaics of grassland, scrub and ruderal/empheral habitats which are present along the disused railway and in several former industrial sites near Bletchley; A number of watercourses which provide habitat for aquatic invertebrates, fish and plants; Populations of bats including Bechstein’s bat in the Calvert area and populations of Daubenton’s bat, Natterer’s bat and brown long- eared bat which use the disused railway as a key commuting path; Barn owl and populations of Birds of Conservation Concern red list species; Populations of great crested newt and reptiles; and Populations of terrestrial invertebrate and black hairstreak butterfly. Effects Without mitigation, there would be a range of significant adverse construction effects on ecological features. These are mainly associated with: The loss of breeding/foraging/sheltering or growing habitat; Construction phase disturbance; Alterations to small sections of watercourse; and Mortality to bat and barn owl associated with collisions with train/air pressure changes during train operation. Volume 2 Chapter 9 Page 1 The Network Rail (East West Rail Western Section Phase 2) Order Draft Environmental Statement Mitigation A range of ecological mitigation measures have been proposed to address significant adverse ecological impacts. These include: Creation of compensatory grassland, scrub and wetland habitat outside of the Project Area; Creation of compensatory grassland and scrub habitat in the Project Area after construction has been complete (on new embankment and cutting slopes); Measures to address construction disturbance to animal species (e.g. controlled working practices and lighting controls); and Provision of replacement barn owl nesting habitat (nest boxes). The requirement for a bat mitigation structure is being considered following provisional assessment of potential impacts on Sheephouse Wood SSSI. The results of further operational impact assessment on bats and consultation with NE will be presented in the Final ES. Residual Effects All significant construction effects will be fully mitigated. No construction phase significant residual adverse effects are anticipated. 9.1 General 9.1.1 This chapter identifies and assesses the likely significant effects of the Project on ecological features that could arise from construction and operation. These include impacts on species, habitats and designated sites for nature conservation. This chapter also sets out agreed avoidance, mitigation, compensation and enhancement measures where appropriate, and assesses the significance of the residual effects of the Project on these features. 9.1.2 Species scientific names have been removed from the main body of this chapter (wherever a widely accepted species common name exists) and are provided instead in Section 9.9. Volume 2 Chapter 9 Page 2 The Network Rail (East West Rail Western Section Phase 2) Order Draft Environmental Statement 9.2 Limitations and Assumptions 9.2.1 In addition to the overall ES limitations explained in Section 4.11 of Chapter 4: EIA Methodology, the following limitations and assumptions apply to this chapter. Field Surveys 9.2.2 The limitations, constraints and any deviations from good construction practice survey methodologies associated with particular survey types are reported in Technical Appendices 9.2 to 9.16. 9.2.3 Access was not provided to all of the land area where ecological surveys were planned. Information on locations where access was restricted is provided in Technical Appendices 9.2 to 9.16. 9.2.4 Where land access was not available and field survey data therefore not obtained, a precautionary baseline was built up according to the approach outlined in Section 9.4 (Approach and Methodology). This constitutes a ‘reasonable precautionary case’ basis for the subsequent assessment. Assessment of Impacts 9.2.5 Unless otherwise stated, the assessment of ecological impacts was undertaken using the general assumption that all vegetation will be removed from the TWAO Scheme Area in a single season in order to construct the Project. 9.3 Legislation, Policy and Guidance 9.3.1 The following key pieces of nature conservation legislation are relevant to this assessment: Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and Wild Fauna and Flora (the Habitats Directive); The Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (the Bern Convention); The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010 (as amended) (the Habitats Regulations); The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) (WCA); The Countryside and Rights of Way (CRoW) Act 2000; Volume 2 Chapter 9 Page 3 The Network Rail (East West Rail Western Section Phase 2) Order Draft Environmental Statement The Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006; The Protection of Badgers Act 1992;and

  • An Evaluation of Latent Dirichlet Allocation in the Context of Plant-Pollinator Networks by Liam Callaghan a Thesis Presented To
    An evaluation of latent Dirichlet allocation in the context of plant-pollinator networks by Liam Callaghan A Thesis Presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mathematics and Statistics Guelph, Ontario, Canada c Liam Callaghan, December, 2012 ABSTRACT An evaluation of latent Dirichlet allocation in the context of plant-pollinator networks Liam Callaghan Advisors: University of Guelph, 2012 Dr. A. Ali Dr. G. Umphrey There may be several mechanisms that drive observed interactions between plants and pollinators in an ecosystem, many of which may involve trait matching or trait complementarity. Hence a model of insect species activity on plant species should be represented as a mixture of these linkage rules. Unfortunately, ecologists do not always know how many, or even which, traits are the main contributors to the observed interactions. This thesis proposes the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model from artificial intelligence for modelling the observed interactions in an ecosys- tem as a finite mixture of (latent) interaction groups in which plant and pollinator pairs that share common linkage rules are placed in the same interaction group. Sev- eral model selection criteria are explored for estimating how many interaction groups best describe the observed interactions. This thesis also introduces a new model se- lection score called \penalized perplexity". The performance of the model selection criteria, and of LDA in general, are evaluated through a comprehensive simulation study that consider networks of various size along with varying levels of nesting and numbers of interaction groups. Results of the simulation study suggest that LDA works well on networks with mild-to-no nesting, but loses accuracy with increased nestedness.

  • Covanta Rookery Pit Incinerator - Reference No EPR/WP3234DY/A001
    Covanta Rookery Pit Incinerator - Reference No EPR/WP3234DY/A001 Dear Sirs I am writing to you on behalf of Bedfordshire Against Covanta Incinerator (BACI) - A coalition of Residents, Parish & Borough Councillors and Action Groups members who are proactively expressing their concern and - where appropriate - protesting against the Covanta Incinerator at Rookery Pit. There is a great deal of public interest in this development as demonstrated by the following: 3,626 people have signed our petition located at https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/stop-covanta- building-an-efw-incinerator-plant.html - paper copy available if requested in writing Our Facebook group member numbers are currently 1,448 Our website has received 8,287 visits since its launch in November 2016 We believe that a permit should not be granted by the Environment Agency to Covanta to operate an Incineration Plant to be located at Rookery Pit South, Bedfordshire. There are a great many factors involved in this development the Environment Agency must take into consideration. These include: Covanta as an operator, Veolia as a supplier, the time elapsed since planning approval, the local area weather issues, the local area impacts, impacts further afield, Greenhouse Gases impact/Carbon Budget and Government Policies. Since the Covanta Incinerator received planning permission in 2011 there have been a number of new and updated Governmental and EU policies regarding the Environment that will have significance in this permit decision. These include (but are not limited to) - Natural Environment White Paper, the England Biodiversity Strategy, Water for Life, the Waste Policy Review, the National Climate Change Adaptation Programme, the revised EU air quality standards and the Green Book: valuation of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.

  • Butterfly Conservation Upper Thames Branch Silver-Washed Fritillary
    Butterfly Conservation Upper Thames Branch Silver-washed Fritillary Report 2006-7 Mick Campbell Many thanks to everyone who sent in sightings of Silver-washed Fritillary, in particular Chris Brown who monitored Crowsley Park Wood on a daily basis throughout the season, capturing the timing of different events, such as pairing and roosting habits of this beautiful butterfly. From the left: Silver-washed Fritillary male on bramble showing the distinctive black streaks of scent-scales near the middle of the forewing; female on buddleia; and the valezina form of the female (photos © Peter Hall, David Redhead & Tony Croft respectively) The Silver-washed Fritillary is a strong, fast flying woodland species, preferring mixed woodland with an open canopy, sunny glades and rides, with bramble as the favoured nectar source. They lay their eggs on oaks and rough-barked conifers where their foodplant of violet is present nearby. Interestingly, a report was also received from Jan Haseler in 2007 of a female appearing to oviposit on alder. Silver-washed Fritillary has been expanding its range in recent years and in the hot summer of 2006 it was particularly successful, with ‘wanderers’ turning up in 12 gardens, compared with 3 sightings in gardens during the 2007 season. First sighting Last sighting Number seen 2006 22-Jun-06 24-Aug-06 389 2007 17-Jun-07 07-Sept-07 306 As this species has a very long flight period, the peak emergence is difficult to pinpoint, but the maximum numbers are counted from about 11th July through to 10th August, with the first females being noted 2-3 weeks after the first male is sighted.

  • DRAFT Bedfordshire Butterflies Report for 2019
    DRAFT 2019 Bedfordshire Butterfly Report destined to be published in Bedfordshire Naturalist The photographs herein are only to illustrate this DRAFT – others will be sought for publication Butterflies 2019 Keith Balmer With no exceptionally warm days in January it was a quiet month for butterflies with just a Red Admiral seen on the 8th and a Peacock on the 28th. February was a much warmer month which elicited a lot more activity. The first Small Tortoiseshell was seen on the 5th, Brimstone on the 9th and Comma on the 15th. By the 24th the balmy weather had also brought out a Large White and three Small Whites. The counts by the end of February were extraordinary: Brimstone 245, Comma 54, Large White 1, Peacock 14, Red Admiral 30, Small Tortoiseshell 61, Small White 4, making a total of 409 adults and seven species! March was another warm month resulting in an advanced start to the season for four more species: Speckled Wood on the 2nd, Orange Tip and Holly Blue on the 24th, and Green-veined White on the 29th. On the 30th a Painted Lady was seen in the van of a strong migration which saw large numbers arrive in the UK later in the year. 12 species and 706 butterflies were reported during March. April opened with another early sighting, a Green Hairstreak on the 1st. Small Copper showed next on the 15th, followed by Grizzled Skipper on the 19th, Duke of Burgundy on the 20th, Small Heath on the 21st and Dingy Skipper on the 22nd. Fine weather in week 16 (16th to 22nd April) produced a large volume of sightings and resultant spike in the weekly data.
