Executive Summary: Air Quality in Our Area North Warwickshire Borough Council 2020 Air Quality Annual Status Report (ASR) In fulfilment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management September 2020 LAQM Annual Status Report 2020 North Warwickshire Borough Council Local Authority Zoe Bickley/Matt Green Officer Department Environmental Health North Warwickshire Borough Council Address The Council House South Street Telephone 01827 715341 E-mail [email protected] Report Reference ASR20 number Date September 2020 LAQM Annual Status Report 2020 North Warwickshire Borough Council Executive Summary: Air Quality in Our Area The monitoring over this past 12 months has highlighted a couple of hotspots and as such, further monitoring within the localities of these has begun for 2020. A detailed or further assessment has not been considered necessary for any pollutant at this time. We will look again at this towards the end of 2020. Air Quality in North Warwickshire Air pollution is associated with a number of adverse health impacts. It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. Actions to Improve Air Quality The relocation of the tubes this year has proven to be a worthwhile exercise as new hotspots have been identified. Following this, further monitoring has begun with locating more tubes around these hotspots. An Air Quality Supplementary Planning Document was also approved by the Council in September 2019 in a bid to help reduce air pollution issues at the planning stage. Active Traffic Management systems have been and are currently being installed upon sections of the M6 and M42 within North Warwickshire. This has been proven to increase traffic flow during periods of congestion on the motorway network and has subsequently had a positive effect on air quality in these areas. 1 Environmental equity, air quality, socioeconomic status and respiratory health, 2010 2 Air quality and social deprivation in the UK: an environmental inequalities analysis, 2006 3 Defra. Abatement cost guidance for valuing changes in air quality, May 2013 LAQM Annual Status Report 2020 i North Warwickshire Borough Council Also as part of the Local Transport Plan, Warwickshire County Council has produced an Air Quality Strategy which details several measures that have been employed to improve air quality across the County. The Air Quality Strategy is contained in the Local Transport Plan and can be seen in full at http://apps.warwickshire.gov.uk/api/documents/WCCC-630-116. Conclusions and Priorities There are a number of measures being undertaken to deal with air quality at a regional level. At a local level North Warwickshire Borough Council have increased the locations of monitoring for NOx from January 2020 based on the results obtained in 2019. The results of which will be submitted in the next year annual status report.

It fulfils the requirements of Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) as set out in Part IV of the Environment Act (1995) and the relevant Policy and Technical Guidance documents. The LAQM process places an obligation on all local authorities to regularly review and assess air quality in their areas, and to determine whether or not the air quality objectives are likely to be achieved. Where an exceedance is considered likely the local authority must declare an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) and prepare an Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) setting out the measures it intends to put in place in pursuit of the objectives. This Annual Status Report (ASR) is an annual requirement showing the strategies employed by North Warwickshire Borough Council to improve air quality and any progress that has been made. The statutory air quality objectives applicable to LAQM in England can be found in Table E.1 in Appendix E. LAQM Annual Status Report 2020 5 North Warwickshire Borough Council 2 Actions to Improve Air Quality 2.1 Air Quality Management Areas Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) are declared when there is an exceedance or likely exceedance of an air quality objective. After declaration, the authority must prepare an Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) within 12-18 months setting out measures it intends to put in place in pursuit of compliance with the objectives. North Warwickshire Borough Council currently does not have any AQMAs. For reference, a map of North Warwickshire’s monitoring locations is available in Appendix D. 2.2 Progress and Impact of Measures to address Air Quality in North Warwickshire Defra’s appraisal of last year’s ASR concluded that the expansion of monitoring is supported. 2.3 PM2.5 – Local Authority Approach to Reducing Emissions and/or Concentrations As detailed in Policy Guidance LAQM.PG16 (Chapter 7), local authorities are expected to work towards reducing emissions and/or concentrations of PM2.5 (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter

  • The Native Black Poplar in Warwickshire
    THE NATIVE BLACK POPLAR IN WARWICKSHIRE Steven Falk, 2011 THE NATIVE BLACK POPLAR IN WARWICKSHIRE Introduction The true Black Poplar of Britain, also known as the Native Black Poplar, Wild Black Poplar, Downy Black Poplar or Water Poplar, is a native broadleaved tree of some conservation concern in Britain as it is relatively scarce and probably declining in its traditional waterside and floodplain habitats. It also displays very little of the sexual reproduction that helps trees to sustain genetic diversity and associated resistance to disease and other pressures. It has been described as the rarest native timber tree in Britain and large specimens can be magnificent with a distinctive silhouette, foliage and trunk texture. With practice they can often be spotted from considerable distance and distinguished from the various varieties of Hybrid Black Poplars, which are often misidentified as the native form. They also grow in some extremely isolated and beautiful parts of Warwickshire. Nearly 550 specimens have now been identified within the modern Warwickshire, Solihull and Coventry administrative areas. This publication will help you to understand more about them in the hope that they can be conserved and studied further. A solitary Native Black Poplar growing close to the M42 near Bickenhill. They are often easiest to spot in winter when the down-arched side-branches and tight clumps of up-curved twigs are most obvious. 1 What is the Native Black Poplar? The true Native Black Poplar in Britain is Populus nigra subspecies betulifolia . This subspecies (race) appears to be indigenous to Britain and nearby parts of France.

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.
