  • Iwa Submission on the Environment Bill – Appendix A
    IWA SUBMISSION ON THE ENVIRONMENT BILL – APPENDIX A IWA VISION FOR SUSTAINABLE PROPULSION ON THE INLAND WATERWAYS EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW 1. Recognising the UK Government’s strategy to reduce emissions from diesel and petrol engines, IWA formed its Sustainable Propulsion Group in 2019 to identify and monitor developments which will enable boats on the inland waterways to fully contribute to the Government’s stated aim of zero CO2 emissions by 2050. 2. The Group has identified a number potential solutions that it recommends should be progressed in order to ensure that boats used on the inland waterways do not get left behind in technological developments. These are outlined in more detail in this paper. 3. To ensure that the inland waterways continue to be sustainable for future generations, and continue to deliver benefits to society and the economy, IWA has concluded that national, devolved and local government should progress the following initiatives: Investment in infrastructure through the installation of 300 shore power mains connection charging sites across the connected inland waterways network. This would improve air quality by reducing the emissions from stoves for heating and engines run for charging batteries, as well as enabling a move towards more boats with electric propulsion. Working with navigation authorities, investment in a national dredging programme across the inland waterways to make propulsion more efficient. This will also have additional environmental benefits on water quality and increasing capacity for flood waters. Research and investment into the production, use and distribution of biofuels. This will be necessary to reduce the environmental impact of existing diesel engines which, given their longevity, will still be around until well after 2050.

  • The Pocklington Canal
    Pocklington Canal Bicentenary 2018 is an important year for PCAS. It marks the The bicentenary of the completion of building of the canal. PCAS has been working very hard to restore a fur- ther two miles of canal, Pocklington Canal between Melbourne and Bielby. This included Registered Charity 500637 repairs and re-gating of www.pocklingtoncanalsociety.org Thornton Lock (in pho- tos) and Walbut Lock. The aims of the Pocklington Canal Amenity Society are Where possible work l to promote restoration of the canal to a navigable standard has been done by PCAS for the benefit of the local community and the general public, as an amenity that can be enjoyed by all. volunteers. l to stimulate public interest and appreciation of the beauty, Coates Lock will need history, flora & fauna, and structures of the Pocklington minor works and the next major project will be to Canal and its environs, with respect for the legal protection restore Sandhill Lock, which is in derelict condition. of its heritage and wildlife. l to support the use of the canal for educational purposes. The Pocklington Canal Amenity Society (PCAS) was formed in 1969. Since then, volunteers have done a great deal to improve and maintain the canal and our volunteers do work on the canal throughout the year. We have around 300 members and you are welcome to become a volunteer. Fundraising is essential and donations from members and the public, and grants make a very important contribution to our work. Our trip boat New Horizons, the Information Centre at Canal Head and the PCAS Stall are run by our vol- unteers and these generate a steady income.

  • Opposed Bill Committee Oral Evidence: Middle Level Bill
    Opposed Bill Committee Oral evidence: Middle Level Bill Monday 15 January 2018 Ordered by the House of Commons to be published on 15 January 2018. Watch the meeting Members present: Julian Knight (Chair); Tulip Siddiq; Alex Sobel; Giles Watling. Appearing in public session: On behalf of the Promoter: Neil Cameron, QC, Counsel; David Thomas, Chief Executive, Chief Engineer and Clerk to the Middle Level Commissioners; Chris Howes, Chair of the Peterborough Branch of the Inland Waterways Association. Petitioners: Pamela Smith, National Bargee Travellers Association; Nigel Moore; Derek Paice; Christopher Taylor. (at 2.02) 1 CHAIR: Welcome, everybody. This is the Opposed Bill Committee for the private Bill being promoted by the Middle Level Commissioners. Our role is to listen to the arguments brought before us by the Promoters on the one hand and the Petitioners on the other and decide to approve the Bill as it now stands, determine that its need has not been proven, or approve it subject to amendments set down. 2 I will begin with some housekeeping, if I may. Please turn off your mobile phones—I am now furiously trying to remember whether I have turned mine off. If the bell rings for a Division in the House, which is very unlikely, the Committee will suspend for approximately 15 minutes; you can remain seated during that time. Counsel, I know you are probably used to standing to present your case, but it is perfectly acceptable for you to sit—as you can see, the confines of the Committee Room are quite tight. Please will everyone speak up, and speak clearly, for the benefit of the Hansard reporters and of anyone in the room who may be hard of hearing? A full transcript will be made available a few hours after each session, courtesy of Hansard.

    Empowered or hindered? An assessment of the effectiveness of existing legal powers in enabling navigation authorities to achieve their full potential Empowered or hindered? An assessment of the effectiveness of existing legal powers in enabling navigation authorities to achieve their full potential About AINA AINA is the industry body in Great Britain for those authorities with statutory or other legal responsibility for the management and operation of navigable inland waterways for navigation and wider uses. There are 21 AINA members drawn from the public, private and third sectors. They include British Waterways and the Environment Agency which are publicly owned and receive grant-in-aid from government, in addition to the Broads Authority, national park authorities, local government authorities, private canal companies, internal drainage boards, and a variety of public and charitable trusts. Most AINA members are defined as navigation authorities by their own AINA Acts of Parliament (some of them centuries old) which regulate the operation of their waterways. Others, such as local government Fearns Wharf authorities, have inherited the status of navigation authority through Neptune Street various statutes.
