  • Society for Control of Troublesome and Toxic Industrial Emissions (SCOTTIE) Finding Aid
    Falkirk Archives (Archon Code: GB558) FALKIRK ARCHIVES Society for Control of Troublesome and Toxic Industrial Emissions (SCOTTIE) Finding Aid History The Society for Control of Troublesome and Toxic Industrial Emissions (SCOTTIE) was set up in 1976, in response to the operation of a toxic waste incinerator by Re-Chem International Ltd at Roughmute near Bonnybridge. The local population was concerned about the possible adverse effects of the emissions from the incinerator. From 1976 to 1984 SCOTTIE kept up a local and national campaign, initially for an investigation into Re-Chem’s methods and, later, for the shutdown of the plant. Re-Chem closed its Bonnybridge incinerator in October 1984, citing financial reasons. After the closure, SCOTTIE continued its activities because Re-Chem still held a licence to operate at the site. An official review into the operation of the site, chaired by Professor Lenihan, issued its report in February 1985. This report found that Re-Chem was not responsible for the ill health reported in local cattle or birth defects found in local children. Many SCOTTIE members were disillusioned with this report, and they continued to lobby government bodies. SCOTTIE also took on an advisory role to other environmental groups. Its membership of Communities Against Toxics (CATs), which acted as a network linking local environmental groups across the United Kingdom, resulted in a steady flow of letters asking for help and advice. SCOTTIE also took part in other local campaigns such as plans to build an incinerator at Falkirk Royal Infirmary. SCOTTIE disbanded in 2003 due to dwindling membership and the decline in its activities.

  • Controls on Surface Water Quality in the River Clyde Catchment, Scotland UK, with Particular Reference to Chromium and Lead
    Chromium and lead in stream and river water Clyde catchment Controls on surface water quality in the River Clyde catchment, Scotland UK, with particular reference to chromium and lead. Bearcock J M1, Smedley, P L1, Fordyce F M2, Everett P A2, and Ander E L1 1. British Geological Survey, Environmental Science Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK 2. British Geological Survey, The Lyell Centre, Research Avenue South, Edinburgh, EH14 4AP, UK Corresponding author: Jenny Bearcock e-mail: [email protected] 1 Chromium and lead in stream and river water Clyde catchment Abstract (204 words) Three collated geochemical surveys of surface water in the Clyde catchment have established the spatial variability in water composition, primarily under baseflow conditions. The waters are broadly pH-neutral to alkaline (maximum pH 8.7) in the lowlands, but mildly acidic in uplands on the catchment periphery. Electrical conductance is relatively high in lowland streams (maximum 8320 µg/L), with lower values in the uplands. Dissolved chromium (Cr) (<0.05-971 µg/L) and lead (Pb) (<0.05-19.4 µg/L) are of importance due to recognised pollution sources within the catchment. High aqueous Cr concentrations (>5 µg/L) are recorded in urban areas associated with disposal of alkaline industrial chromite-ore processing residue. Under such conditions, Cr probably occurs as Cr(VI). Numerous relatively high Pb values occur in the upland and urban areas. These are likely to be associated with a combination of soil reactions, diffuse pollution and contamination from Pb- mineralisation/mining. Lead has a stronger correlation with water pH than with stream-sediment Pb content, suggesting pH has a greater control on Pb-mobility than does host-rock Pb.

  • Sustainable Scotland: Putting Environmental Justice at the Heart of the Policy Agenda?
    The Sustainable City IV: Urban Regeneration and Sustainability 775 Sustainable Scotland: putting environmental justice at the heart of the policy agenda? E. McDowell1 & C. McWilliams2 1Glasgow Caledonian University, Scotland 2Heriot Watt University, Scotland Abstract The Scottish Executive has declared its intention to ‘put environmental concerns at the heart of public policy and secure environmental justice for all communities’. By way of secondary analysis, we explore two high-profile community campaigns which convey a fundamental tension between the rhetoric and practice of environmental justice within an urban framework. A number of concerns from local communities suggest that the proclaimed enthusiasm for sustainability conceals the true cost of its implementation at a local level. We are of the view that environmental justice – flaunted as a core policy government commitment – throws up a range of contradictions and misconceptions, which implies the need for a more progressive and inclusive approach to the implementation of policy. Keywords: city, sustainable development, environmental justice, Scottish Executive. 1 Introduction The question of who pays and who benefits from current industrial and development policies is central to any analysis of environmental justice. Despite improvements in environmental protection over the past several decades, many people continue to live in unsafe and unhealthy physical environments. Numerous economically impoverished communities and their inhabitants are exposed to greater health hazards

DARNGAVEL ROAD. GREENGAIRS From: DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT Date: 6 December, 2000 Ref: CPL/GWD042 10 18000-6/ GPQimd Introduction 1. The purpose of ths report is to inform members of a recent unauthorised disposal of waste within Greengairs Landfill Site and to consider the action available to the Council under planning legislation. Backwound 2. On 6 July 1998, planning permission (86458) was granted in respect of the Greengairs Landfill Site at Darngavel Road, Greengairs. 3. Condition 7 of that permission states "that only household, commercial and general industrial waste shall be tipped with all materials being generally dy, non dangerous and non toxic (the only liquid and sludge waste to be deposited on site shall be as approved in the waste disposal licence) and all materials shall be to the satisfaction of the local planning authority: any other materials to be deposited on site shall be approved by the local planning authority in writing; without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing it is a condition of this permission that no asbestos or radioactive waste materials shall be allowed into this site''. 4. This condition within the planning permission reflected waste disposal requirements expressed by the Council's Department of Environmental Services - the waste regulator at that time. The inclusion of this condition preceded Central Government policy on the use of conditions in planning permissions within Circular 4/1998 which makes it clear that conditions should not cover matters that are subject to control under separate legislation.
