Is the methodology for selecting these sites robust and transparent? Has appropriate consideration been given to alternative locations? Have exceptional circumstances been demonstrated to justify the removal of land from the Green Belt? 1. In addition to the previous comments made in the previous Hearing Statements XB1/1a and XB1/1b dated 3 rd December 2014 and 8th June 2015 Bromsgrove District Council (BDC) and Redditch Borough Council (RBC) would like to take the opportunity to re-emphasise and add the following comments. 2. The Councils’ consider that the Foxlydiate and Brockhill East urban extensions represent the most appropriate locations for meeting Redditch’s housing needs within Bromsgrove District. The analysis that informs this view can be found in the Housing Growth Development Study (HGDS) [CDX1.1], and further explanation is found in the more recent Narrative on the Site Selection Process for the Growth Areas at Redditch January 2016 [“The Narrative”] which were completed jointly by BDC and RBC officers.

RC.TL ENVIRONMENT AGENCY I Accession 099797 FOREWORD This Hydrometric Report and Catalogue is one of a series of annual hydrological summaries produced by the NRA Severn-Trent Region. It contains two sections, firstly a hydrological review of the year 1990 with a range of data summaries at key sites, and Secondly, a hydrometric catalogue listing the river flow and level stations, groundwater boreholes, rainfall gauges and climate stations maintained by the region. INTRODUCTION The 1990 Hydrometric Report and Catalogue (or Yearbook) represents the second produced since the National Rivers Authority assumed responsibility for hydrometric data in the Severn-Trent Region. The Yearbook gives an indication of the type and availability of data that can be produced for established measurement stations. The Catalogue Section provides comprehensive lists of these stations with maps to identify their location. The preparation of the Yearbook depends on a combined effort, both from Field Hydrometric staff within the four Area offices and staff within the Hydrometric Data Group at Solihull. The co-ordination of the Yearbook has been supervised by David Grimshaw, Senior Hydrologist, and any mistakes or suggestions should be passed to David or his staff, at Sapphire East.
