It took 7 years of labor, slowly clawing shovels of earth from the ground in a 363-mile trek across the wilderness of New York State. Through the use of many references, this paper attempts to describe this remarkable construction project. Additionally, it describes the early operation of the canal and its impact on the daily life on or near the canal‘s winding path across the state.

  • Waterway Forum Q&A Autumn 2015
    WATERWAY FORUM Q&A AUTUMN 2015 Q1/ What rights do cyclists have when using Canal & River towpaths? Cylists have permissive access to towpaths across the UK. The Canal and River Trust’s towpath code encourages cyclists to observe pedestrian priority, especially in areas where the towpath is not very wide and there is low visibility. We would encourage cyclists to drop their pace in busy areas and ring bells to alert other users. CRT launched a national campaign in October to ‘Share the Space’ to encourage considerate use of the towpath by all users. Events have taken place along the towpath to raise awareness in Berkhamsted and Apsley so far. We are keen to work with cycling and community groups to organise more events across the region Q2/ Why are we having so many instances of very low water levels on the pound where Dunstable District Boat Club is located at Cooks Wharf, Pitstone? The primary problem in this area is gate leakage. There are several substantial leaks on gates between Cooks Wharf and Horton. This situation is further exasperated by the unauthorised water running that seems to be taking place. It is apparent that on occasion individuals are filling pounds with little or no regard for anyone who may be mooring in the pound above. This is not to excuse the gate leakage defects that need to be addressed by Canal & River Trust. A stoppage for this area is planned for 11/01/2016 – 26/02/2016 Q3/ I am concerned about the neglect of the 18 locks between Leighton Buzzard and Cowroast.

  • Coarse Fishing Close Season on English Rivers
    Coarse fishing close season on English rivers Appendix 1 – Current coarse fish close season arrangements The close season on different waters In England, there is a coarse fish close season on all rivers, some canals and some stillwaters. This has not always been the case. In the 1990s, only around 60% of the canal network had a close season and in some regions, the close season had been dispensed with on all stillwaters. Stillwaters In 1995, following consultation, government confirmed a national byelaw which retained the coarse fish close season on rivers, streams, drains and canals, but dispensed with it on most stillwaters. The rationale was twofold: • Most stillwaters are discrete waterbodies in single ownership. Fishery owners can apply bespoke angling restrictions to protect their stocks, including non-statutory close times. • The close season had been dispensed with on many stillwaters prior to 1995 without apparent detriment to those fisheries. This presented strong evidence in favour of removing it. The close season is retained on some Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, as a precaution against possible damage to sensitive wildlife - see Appendix 1. This consultation is not seeking views on whether the close season should be retained on these stillwaters While most stillwater fishery managers have not re-imposed their own close season rules, some have, either adopting the same dates as apply to rivers or tailoring them to their waters' specific needs. Canals The Environment Agency commissioned a research project in 1997 to examine the evidence around the close season on canals to identify whether or not angling during the close season was detrimental to canal fisheries.

    The Vale of Aylesbury Plan Cheddington Fact Pack May 2011 St Giles Church Contents Section Page 1 Introduction page 3 2 Location and Setting page 6 3 Story of Place page 8 4 Fact File page 10 5 Issues Facing the Parish page 38 6 Parish Constraints page 40 7 Annex page 45 Front Cover Photo Source: AVDC, 2010 2 1. Introduction Purpose of the document This Fact Pack document was initially produced in 2010 to help inform the town/parish council about the characteristics of their parish for the ‘community view’ consultation. This consultation was undertaken early on in the preparation of the Vale of Aylesbury Plan as part of a bottom up approach embracing localism and aiming to get local communities more involved in the planning process. The town/parish council were asked to consult with their community on the following: The level of future housing and/or employment development up to 2031, including specific types of homes, employment and other development The location, sizes and phasing of development The types of infrastructure (social, community, physical) needed to enable development, including where it should be located Any other issues relating to planning and development This Fact Pack document has also been used to support neighbourhood planning by providing evidence for the context of the neighbourhood plan, including information on housing, employment, infrastructure and the environment. This Fact Pack document has also been used to support the Vale of Aylesbury Plan Settlement Hierarchy Assessment. This forms part of the evidence that classifies settlements into different categories, where different levels of growth are apportioned to over the next 20 years.

  • Cheddington Parish Council Notes/Pc Update As at 5Th May 2020 Residents Updates
    CHEDDINGTON PARISH COUNCIL NOTES/PC UPDATE AS AT 5TH MAY 2020 RESIDENTS UPDATES • Cheddington Neighbourhood Watch – Volunteering Information During Coronavirus Email received from Gail Steed OBO Chedd-eroo (received 1st May) Update news for the Parish Council is as follows: Chedd-eroo has now been a group for over 6 weeks. They have 98 volunteers from Cheddington and Cooks Wharf and all are giving support in some way, except for 6 who are on standby. They are presently supporting 148 households, 4 doctors’ surgeries & 2 Food Banks. The Food Bank arrangement for Cheddington residents is in its second week and working really well. The Food Banks were very thankful for the donations. Ivinghoe Food Bank have already been receiving calls from Cheddington residents needing help. Therefore, with the volunteers now settled into supporting the elderly and smoothly delivering medication, their focus has moved to young families with no food due to a change in their circumstances during Covid 19. Chedd-eroo has been allowed by Bucks CC to pass the government food parcels that are not wanted to those in need in Cheddington. Another area that Chedderoo has helped with is getting cash out for elderly residents with no way of paying for their shopping. This was done with police approval. Carol Lister and Gail Steed are really pleased with how the Chedderoo volunteers support is making a real difference to many residents and also that they are reducing footfall at doctors’ surgeries.

    4 CANALS AS AQUATIC CORRIDORS 4.1 INTRODUCTION The term 'corridor' can be used to describe two different situations. In the first, the corridor is simply a passage along which organisms travel. or along which propagules are dispersed. Thus, one can imagine a butterfly or a bird passing from one wood to another along a hedge, or a seed floating along a stream from one lake to another. The second situation is the corridor as a linear habitat in which organisms live and reproduce. This section of the report considers British canals as linear habitats for submerged and floating vascular plants. A study of the plants which have colonized canals is of interest for two reasons. Canals are of intrinsic importance, as they contain significant populations of many scarce or rare aquatic macrophytes. They are unstable habitats: if neglected they gradually become overgrown by emergent vegetation but if maintained and intensively used by boat traffic they also lose much of their botanical diversity (Murphy & Eaton 1983). The restoration of canals for pleasure boating has been a controversial issue in recent years, and the management of the Basingstoke Canal. in particular, has been a subject of heated debate (see Byfield 1990). Proposals to use canals as part of a national water grid may also need to be evaluated by conservationists, and a knowledge of the dispersal behaviour and colonizing ability of both native and alien species will be essential if the consequences of linking canals are to be predicted. 4.2 REPRODUCTION AND DISPERSAL IN THE AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT In considering aquatic corridors, an important feature of aquatic plants must be borne in mind: the prevalence of vegetative reproduction in many genera.
