Socket Converters Spark Fire Safety Warning Essex County Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters Kelvedon Park Rivenhall Witham Essex CM8 3HB Tel: 01376 576000 Fax: 01376570466 www.essex-fire.gov.uk Options for change These are the three options Essex County Fire and Rescue Service will be consulting on. In all of the response model proposals shortlisted it is suggested that specialist off road vehicles, known as, Pinzgauer appliances, will be removed from the following fire stations: • Billericay Fire Station • Manningtree Fire Station • Burnham Fire Station • Great Dunmow Fire Station (Note; a second fire engine is to be maintained at Great Dunmow) The Service has five day crewed fire stations. Day crewed stations see firefighters on the fire station between Monday and Friday 0900hrs to 1800hrs. During the evenings and weekends these stations are on-call status. These five stations see an annual average demand of between 177 and 303 incidents per year. The Service has 13 on-call fire stations currently operating at this level of demand and higher. In all of the fire cover proposals shortlisted it is suggested that the following fire engines are to be converted from the day crewing duty system to the on-call crewing system: • Dovercourt Fire Station • South Woodham Ferrers Fire Station • Great Baddow Fire Station • Waltham Abbey Fire Station • Great Dunmow Fire Station Recognising the changes set out above, the three preferred options are: Essex County Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters Kelvedon Park Rivenhall Witham Essex CM8 3HB Tel: 01376 576000 Fax: 01376570466 www.essex-fire.gov.uk Proposal One This proposal will deliver savings of £8.6m. It is predicted to meet both of the Authority’s revised response standards. Under the proposal the Service would have 64 fire engines, 15 of which are wholetime and 49 on-call. Specifically this proposal seeks to: Remove the second fire engine from the following fire stations: • Orsett Fire Station • Rayleigh Fire Station • Loughton Fire Station • Southend Fire Station • Grays Fire Station • Corringham Fire Station • Frinton Fire Station Change the crewing of the second fire engine at the following fire stations from wholetime to on-call: • Clacton Fire Station • Harlow Fire Station These changes would see a reduction in watch-based wholetime firefighters from the current 570 to 360 and an increase in on-call firefighters from 437 to 466. Proposal Two This proposal is projected to deliver savings of £6.4m. It is predicted to meet both of the Authority’s response standards. Under the proposal the Service would have 66 fire engines, 18 of which are wholetime and 48 are on- call. Specifically this proposal seeks to: Remove the second fire engine from the following fire stations: Essex County Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters Kelvedon Park Rivenhall Witham Essex CM8 3HB Tel: 01376 576000 Fax: 01376570466 www.essex-fire.gov.uk • Orsett Fire Station • Rayleigh Fire Station • Loughton Fire Station • Corringham Fire Station • Frinton Fire Station Change the crewing of the second fire engine at the following fire station from wholetime to on-call: • Clacton Fire Station These changes would see a reduction in watch-based wholetime firefighters from the current 570 to 432 and an increase in on-call firefighters from 437 to 456. Proposal Three This proposal is projected to deliver savings of £10m. The initial modelling suggests that this proposal will meet the second of the Authority’s revised response standards but fails to meet the first by 0.2%. Further modelling, using elevated on-call availability figures, suggests that this proposal would meet the first of the Authority’s revised response standards with an availability figure of 98%. Under the proposal the Service would have 64 fire engines, 14 of which are wholetime and 50 are on-call. Specifically this proposal seeks to: Remove the second fire engine from the following fire stations: • Orsett Fire Station • Rayleigh Fire Station • Loughton Fire Station • Southend Fire Station • Grays Fire Station • Clacton Fire Station • Harlow Fire Station Change the crewing at the following fire station from wholetime to on-call: Essex County Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters Kelvedon Park Rivenhall Witham Essex CM8 3HB Tel: 01376 576000 Fax: 01376570466 www.essex-fire.gov.uk • Brentwood Fire Station These changes would see a reduction in watch-based wholetime firefighters from the current 570 to 336 and an increase in on-call firefighters from 437 to 467. The consultation will launch at the start of February and will offer people many ways to feedback including online, on the phone or through the post. It will run for 12 weeks. .

Please email [email protected] if you have any data/ information to add or correct. *Original primary source documents are digitized and can be viewed on the web site. Ancestors of the Immigrant Christopher Choate [b.1642] ©1 Christopher Chotte 2 is documented to have immigrated from England as an indentured servant to the Province of Maryland in 1676.*3 There is no information in the records of England or Maryland to indicate his age or where in England he was from. He has been identified by researchers as the first in the "Choates of the South” family line (Generation 1). Attempting to identify the English origins and relatives of Christopher is a challenge since primary source data is limited or yet to be discovered. Below is the beginning of an attempt to identify our English ancestors but these result involve conjecture and the further back one goes pure guess work. 4 The greatest portion of Choat/Choate families from the 1600s in England came from the parishes that make up Essex and Suffolk County today. Research in 1988 5 discovered a Christopher Chote christened on 4 September 1642 in St. Mary’s and All Saints Church, Rivenhall Parish, Essex County. 6 His father’s name was Christopher and an older brother was named Edward. Christopher [b.1642] the progenitor of the “Choates of the South” named his two sons: Christopher and Edward. The naming pattern of Christopher’s [b.1642] sons allows one to draw a plausible link between the indentured servant that arrived in the Province of Maryland in 1676 and the boy christened in Rivenhall in 1642.

  • Scrub Clearance Enhances Floristic Species Richness on a Green Lane with Restricted Motorised Vehicular Access in Stanford Rivers, Essex, England
    Conservation Evidence (2009), 6, 79-82 www.ConservationEvidence.com Scrub clearance enhances floristic species richness on a green lane with restricted motorised vehicular access in Stanford Rivers, Essex, England Tim Gardiner 1 & Andrew Vaughan 2 1 2 Beech Road, Rivenhall, Witham, Essex CM8 3PF, UK ; [email protected] 2 Epping Forest Countrycare, Epping Forest District Council, Civic Offices, High Street, Epping, Essex CM16 4BZ, UK ; [email protected] SUMMARY An experimental early-spring scrub clearance regime was introduced in 2008 to Coleman’s Lane, a ‘green lane’ site (i.e. a double hedged, unsurfaced track) in Essex, southeast England, with the aim of increasing floristic species richness. A year after scrub clearance, floristic species richness was higher on both grassy verges either side (average 5.6 species/quadrat) and central track (4.3 species) of the green lane, compared with that recorded a year prior to clearance (4.2 and 2.8 species respectively). Plant species that especially benefited from scrub clearance included cow parsley Anthriscus sylvestris and red dead nettle Lamium purpureum . New species recorded in 2009 included bush vetch Vicia sepium , sweet violet Viola odorata and wood anemone Anemone nemorosa . There were substantial reductions in bramble Rubus fruticosus and cleavers Galium aparine achieved. Further clearance is planned for winter 2009-10, and subsequently on a 2-3 year rotation. BACKGROUND includes the conservation of flora, fauna and physical features of the landscape. Motorised The byways (public rights of way open to all access can lead to low floristic species traffic; walkers, horse riders, cyclists, richness where vehicular usage is high, often motorised vehicles and carriage drivers) of eradicating plant cover on the central track Essex were surveyed in 2002 and 2003 in an due to excessive wear and tear by vehicle effort to describe their value for conservation, wheels (Gardiner 2008).
