Iwharfe: the River Wharfe Big Health Check Press Release a Ground
iWharfe: The River Wharfe Big Health Check Press Release A ground-breaking citizen science study of the River Wharfe in Yorkshire, published today, reveals that many of its most popular recreational sites were polluted and unsafe for paddling and swimming on a one-day Big Health Check. 1. The purpose of the iWharfe project is to raise awareness about the sources of faecal bacteria contamination and its potential impact on human health in the Wharfe. Main Findings: 2. None of the popular sites used for recreation along the entire length of the river was “safe to swim in” on the day of sampling. 3. There were high concentrations of both E. coli and intestinal enterococci below the sewage works in Ilkley (Beanlands Island) as expected and as shown in previous analysis. 4. The high concentrations also observed at popular recreational sites in Upper Wharfedale, such as Linton Falls and Burnsall, were unexpected. 5. Concentrations were also relatively high from Ilkley downstream to the Ouse confluence at Cawood. 6. The lowest concentrations occurred in Langstrothdale and in the river stretch from the Cavendish Pavilion in Bolton Abbey to the Ilkley Suspension Bridge. 7. Our calculations suggest that even the sites with the lowest concentrations would fail to meet bathing water standards if judged according to EU legislation. 8. The dominant source of faecal bacteria pollution in the river is effluent from Sewage Treatment Works 9. The high concentrations of faecal bacteria in some tributary streams indicates that cattle and sheep also contribute to the pollution load but this is of lesser importance than sewage effluent in explaining the concentrations in the main river.

Eccleshill is a predominantly residential area, stretching from Five Lane Ends in the west to the District boundary with Leeds in the east. As well as Eccleshill, this ward also contains the Thorpe Edge, Ravenscliffe and Fagley housing estates. Population The latest population estimates for mid-2019 show that 19,530 people live in Eccleshill ward. 26.5% of the population is aged under 16 Worth Valley has the lowest percentage of young people with 16.6% and Little Horton has the highest percentage with 32.7%.

Ilkley has the lowest percentage of the working age population with 54% and City has the highest percentage with 72.2% - this probably reflects the high numbers of students and young people living in the areas close to Bradford College and Bradford University.

Faecal Bacteria Data from Samples Collected on the 24Th August 2020
Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWHARFE Improving water quality on the River Wharfe from Oughtershaw to the Ouse A citizen science project Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWharfe is a citizen science project. It involves members of communities along the Wharfe valley, working together with the Environment Agency, Yorkshire Water and other agencies. It is funded by local donations and grants. The project was designed to provide a snapshot of water quality condi- tions along the entire length of the river on a single day and to raise awareness about water quality issues both for people and wildlife. Water samples were collected on the 24th August 2020. Here we report on results from samples analysed for faecal bacteria, the organisms in wastewater that cause gastro-intestinal illness. Executive Summary 1. The R. Wharfe “Big Health Check” on the 24th August 2020 involved five teams of citizen scien- tists taking water samples from 60 sites along the R. Wharfe at approximately the same time on the same day. 2. Although riverflow was relatively high, conditions were similar along the full length of the river. 3. Samples for faecal bacteria analysis were stored in cool boxes and hand-delivered to a collection point in Wakefield. They were analysed for E. coli and Intestinal Enterococci (IE) at ALS Ltd Cov- entry, an accredited microbiology laboratory, within 24 hours of sampling. 4. The results showed high concentrations of both E. coli and IE at sites between Buckden and Barden Bridge in Upper Wharfedale and at Beanlands Island in Ilkley, relatively low concentra- tions in Langstrothdale and in the stretch from Bolton Abbey to Ilkley Suspension Bridge, and var- iable concentrations downstream from Burley to the Ouse confluence at Cawood.

Dear Sirs, Bradford Local Plan Reg 18 Consultation
Dear Sirs, Bradford Local Plan Reg 18 Consultation 2021 We broadly support the points made by Andrew Wood of CPRE West Yorkshire, but make the following additional points. POLICY CONFLICT Concerning the sites selected for development in Ilkley there is a direct conflict with the policies, for example:- protecting the green belt minimising travel to work providing adequate infrastructure creating the South Pennines Regional Park maximising the benefit of YWCA funds to support brownfield development all of the changes arising from the Leeds City Region and Transport for the North. No account has been paid to the Planning White Paper which specifically protects green belt and conservation areas. GREEN BELT We have been repeatedly reassured that Green Belt is safeguarded against development by government ministers in person, through the national press and television. A great deal of emphasis is being placed on ‘weak boundaries’ to green belt. This term is meaningless and barely relevant. The boundaries are not weak. They have lasted for several decades. Using up the two indicated areas of green belt in Ben Rhydding does not in any way safeguard or make stronger the adjacent areas. It reduces the greenbelt between Burley in Wharfedale and Ben Rhydding. Describing the boundaries as weak appears to mean that the council wants to develop the sites they enclose. Describing boundaries as less durable is equally specious; they have lasted for at least 25 years and there is no case to change them. The intention of green belt is that it remains in perpetuity. Green belt is not necessarily of high landscape value.
