Vision for the Irwell Catchment The vision for the Irwell Catchment is to create a cleaner, safer water environment. We will retain or recreate attractive rivers within continuous, open river corridors with a diverse range of habitats and physical features. The river will be an attractive feature within the urban environment which people will value. It will enhance the quality of life for the area and encourage inward investment. The Environment Agency will work with other organisations and individuals to achieve sustainable development within the Catchment. We will meet the needs of today while protecting the water environment for future generations and their needs. The vision expresses the long term ambitions for the Irwell Catchment. R. Irwell, Ramsbottom vision 1 2. Introduction This is the First Annual Review for the River Irwell catchment and this is the third stage in the Catchment Management process as shown in Figure 1.

LEAPs are not statutory documents. 3 r 3. Future Review and Monitoring The River Irwell Catchment Management Plan will be rewritten as two separate LEAPs. The Roch, Irk and Medlock LEAP is due to be published in March/April 1998 and the Irwell and Croal LEAP is due to be published in October 1998.

Flood risk management is one area where this has been particularly true, but the same ideas could theoretically be applied to other potential climate induced impacts in urban areas such as subsidence, sewer collapse and land movement. Greater Manchester, as the world’s first industrial city, provides an ideal case study of how such events have affected the urban infrastructure in the past. This paper reviews some of the evidence which can be gleaned from past events and also shows how the realisation of some climate-related risks in heavy modified urban environments can only be fully understood through a consideration of sub-surface as well as surface characteristics. Key words flood, subsidence, risk assessment, Greater Manchester Introduction element which is exposed. It follows, therefore, that unless Urban areas have always been prone to climate-related risks there is a connection between all three risk components, as a result of their ability to modify physical processes such there can be no risk. Using these terms, drivers of changing as drainage and heat exchange and their high concentration patterns of risk can be seen to be as much associated with of people and property.

  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

  • Environmental Baseline Report PDF 642 KB
    July 2013 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy Strategic Environmental Assessment Scoping Report – Environmental Baseline Report 1 Local Flood Risk Management Strategy SEA Environmental Baseline The collection and review of baseline information is a crucial part of the SEA process. It is essential to gather sufficient baseline information on the current and likely future state of the environment in order to be able to adequately predict and assess the significant effects of a plan. The data collected to characterise the evidence base for the SEA of the strategy has been derived from numerous secondary sources and no new investigations or surveys have been undertaken as part of the scoping process. The information presented in this Scoping Report represents an outline of the evidence base by environmental topics. It may be necessary to collect further data against which to assess the potential environmental effects of the LFRMS with regard to monitoring requirements. 2 1 Introduction 1.1 The Borough of Bury is located in the North West of England, situated within the Greater Manchester metropolitan area. As an integral part of Greater Manchester, Bury has an important role to play in accommodating the spatial priorities for the North West region. Bury also has strong links with parts of Lancashire located, towards the north, via the M66 corridor and Irwell Valley. Bury is bounded to the south by the authorities of Manchester and Salford, to the east by Rochdale, to the west by Bolton and to the north by Rossendale and Blackburn and Darwen. 1.2 Bury benefits from good transport links with the rest of Greater Manchester and beyond, which has led to the Borough’s attractiveness as a commuter area.
