Flawed / Absent Local Plan site selection process to-date: Pickfield Nursery was submitted to EFDC in response to the Call for Sites consultation in 2008 and has subsequently been promoted through the current Local Plan process since its inception in 2012. EFDC’s July 2012 SLAA referred to Pickfield Nursery as site SR-0161 but incorrectly identified it as a duplicate site with a much larger parcel (SLAA Reference SR-0020). Representations were then submitted in October 2012 highlighting this mistake. However, despite the submission of detailed representations and subsequent regular liaison with EFDC’s officers (including a positive formal pre-application meeting), EFDC’s Site Selection evidence base published in 2016 discounted Pickfield Nursery prior to Stage 1 of the selection process, once again incorrectly considering it as a duplicate site. Pickfield Nursery was finally acknowledged as an individual site in the Local Plan evidence base in the “Sites for consideration following Regulation 18 consultation” list published in July 2017. However, at the time of writing these representations (26th January 2018, one working day before the Pre-Submission consultation deadline) an assessment of these sites has still not been undertaken and Appendix C1 of the Report on Site Selection (December 2017) has not been completed.

The model simulates nitrogen and phosphorus processes in soils, groundwaters and river systems and can be applied in a semi-distributed manner at a range of scales. In this study, the model has been applied at field to sub-catchment to whole catchment scale to evaluate the behaviour of biosolid-derived losses of P in agricultural systems. It is shown that process-based models such as INCA, applied at a wide range of scales, reproduce field and catchment behaviour satisfactorily. The INCA model can also be used to generate generic information for risk assessment. By adjusting three key variables: biosolid application rates, the hydrological connectivity of the catchment and the initial P-status of the soils within the model, a matrix of P loss rates can be generated to evaluate the behaviour of the model and, hence, of the catchment system.

It will consider how all sorts of activities can help manage flood risk, from better planning which makes sure new developments decrease rather than increase flood risk for its neighbours, to ensuring that emergency responses have a good understanding of where flood risk is greatest.

  • RIVER STORT DRAFT CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN May 1991
    NRA Thames 252 RIVER STORT DRAFT CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FLOOD DEFENCE AND THE ENVIRONMENT May 1991 NRA National Rii'ers Authority Thames Region U lJ \ T lW ltS RIVER STORT DRAFT CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR FLOOD DEFENCE AND THE ENVIRONMENT MAY 1991 prepared by The National Rivers Authority Thames Region with the assistance of Land Use Consultants Flynn and Kothweii Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust Essex Wildlife Trust Lee Donaldson Associates ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 123198 A VISION FOR THE RIVER STORT CATCHMENT The river corridors of ihe Stort Catchment are a valuable natural resource, comprising sensitive ecological habitats, a landscape of considerable diversity and value, and areas which are popular for informal recreation. The Stort Navigation is of particular historical significance and its characteristics make it unique in the Thames Region. The objective of the NRA TR is to conserve and, wherever possible, enhance the value of this resource. This will be achieved through appropriate direct management of the water environment, including the provision of appropriate standards of urban flood protection, and partnership with the riparian local authorities, British Waterways Board and other interested organisations. A central part of this objective is to secure the designation of the corridor of the Lower Stort Valley and the Stort Navigation as a ’Special Heritage Area* in the statutory development plans. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Aim of the Catchment Management Plan Under the 1989 Water Act the National Rivers Authority (NRA) is required to conserve and enhance the water environment. Such an important role requires a multi-disciplinary approach; catchment management planning seeks to provide a multi-disciplinary strategy for each catchment.
