13 Socio-Economics and Tourism
Visual Impact Provision (VIP) Snowdonia Project, Environmental Appraisal Volume 1 13 SOCIO-ECONOMICS AND TOURISM 13.1 Introduction 13.1.1 This chapter of the Environmental Appraisal assesses the potential effects on socio-economic and tourism receptors associated with the construction, operation and decommissioning phases of the Visual Impact Provision (VIP), Snowdonia Project (hereafter referred to as the Proposed Project). 13.1.2 The potential effects considered in this appraisal are summarised under five subtopics, as follows: • Tourism: potential effects on tourism attractions and tourism hubs and the wider tourism sector (including the Snowdonia National Park), such as changes in access and/or amenity1. • Recreation: potential effects on recreational receptors such as changes in access and/or amenity. Recreational receptors include public rights of way (PRoW), cycle routes, long distance walking routes (LDWR), open access land, nature reserves and marine-related leisure activities. • Community amenity: potential amenity effects2 on community settlements and residents. • Employment: an overview of the potential direct and indirect employment generation on a local and regional basis. • Supply chain: expenditure within the local and national supply chain. 13.1.3 In the context of this appraisal, ‘amenity’ is the term used to describe the character or attractiveness of an area. When two or more environmental effects are experienced by the same receptors (e.g. a cycling route), amenity can be affected, with the potential to deter users (e.g. cyclists). The following environmental effects are considered in the amenity appraisal: landscape and visual effects; traffic and transport effects; and noise and vibration effects. Due to these important interactions between environmental effects and socio-economic and tourism receptors, it is recommended that this chapter is read in conjunction with Chapter 6 (Landscape and Visual), Chapter 12 (Traffic and Transport) and Chapter 14 (Noise and Vibration).

Low Level Walking in & Around Snowdonia
Low Level Walking in & around Snowdonia Introduction Whilst north west Wales is perhaps most famous for the iconic peak of Snowdon, there is also a vast network of wonderful low level walking routes throughout the area. From the beautiful mountain valleys, with their serene lakes and riverside walks, to the old slate quarries and woodland trails, down to the breathtaking beauty of the coastal fringes of the Lleyn Peninsula and Anglesey there is enough variety to ensure something for everybody. The area is well served with a broad spectrum of outdoor orientated businesses: outdoor shops, accommodation providers, campsites, cafes and rural pubs. Walking is easily the most popular and accessible form of outdoor recreation. It is a healthy pastime which strengthens both body and mind and is enjoyed by millions of visitors to Snowdonia. The basic requirements are boots, warm clothing, waterproofs, spare clothing and a rucksack to carry it in, a large-scale map - and your imagination. History Traditionally, people came to the mountains to climb them; Thomas Johnson made the first recorded ascent of Snowdon in 1639. Low level routes were undertaken over a thousand years earlier, notably by pilgrims to Bardsey Island off theLlˆyn Peninsula , the resting place of 20 thousand saints. Drovers navigated their way through the mountains and miners created routes from their communities to quarries and mines. These historical routes left an intricate web of footpaths over the Glaslyn walk (Photo: Ray Wood) countryside which were, by their nature, corridors of communication for postmen, farmers and local trade. In comparatively recent times these rights of way have become increasingly popular as recreational routes and, by linking and tailoring them to individual preferences, wonderful low level walks can be created.

North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division
North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division. Repeat Address Calls North Wales Police ( UK) Gwynedd Division Contents CONTENTS Profile Gwynedd Division 2-5 Mission Statements 6-7 Abstract 8 Description 9-23 Appendix A S.A.R.A. Forms Appendix B Scanning Sources Appendix C Target Addresses Appendix D Graph's Appendix E Sample P.O.P. Package North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division Profile of the Division The mountainous heartland of Wales, and of the County of Gwynedd in particular has long been recognised as being of special significance because of its spectacular scenery and cultural traditions. Its dramatic beauty, however, is not - and has not been for many generations - completely natural, but is rather a blend of the forces of nature and the hand of man, both of which continue to shape its development. It is an area steeped in great history, but nevertheless subject of national contemporary socio-economic pressures, and the effects of a vibrant tourist industry. Gwynedd covers by far the largest geographical area (629,000 acres) of the six Unitary Authorities in North Wales, and it extends from the City of Bangor in the North to the Dovey Bridge near Machynlleth in the South, and from Aberdaron near the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula in the west to Abergwyngregyn in the East. (The Gwynedd Police Divisional boundary is coterminous with the limits of the Gwynedd Council Unitary Authority area). Gwynedd's neighbouring Unitary Authorities (and Police Divisions) are Anglesey to the North, and Conwy and Denbighshire to the East, whilst its Southern and South Eastern borders mark the boundary between the North Wales and Dyfed-Powys Police areas.
