Recommendation(s): Approve, subject to a legal agreement & conditions set out in the report Report Author: John Lock Finance Officer: Not applicable Legal Officer: Roderic Jones Introduction This application is being reported directly to this Development Management and Control Committee because of its strategic significance in accordance with the Council Constitution. Additionally, the application has been “called-in” by Cllr. Gareth Sullivan. The long and detailed report sets out the background history to the proposal, the data provided with the submission, the results of the Council’s consultation on the submission, an analysis of the merits of the scheme in the context of the relevant policy framework, and a recommendation on the Council’s decision. In line with normal practice, at Committee a presentation will be given containing plans, photomontages, aerial photos, site photos and access road details etc. Page 2 . To ensure that Members can easily view and assimilate this information, it will be distributed at Committee together with the introductory PowerPoint presentation on the material considerations that Committee will need to take into account. In the interests of aiding Committee Members to find their way around the report and to have an overview of the issues, this summary of the contents is provided. It is not a substitute for the report’s detailed consideration, but a guide to its contents. Finally, the page numbers referred to relate to the page numbers at the top of the report’s pages, and not the agenda page numbers at the bottom of the pages. Background Information Section 1 Page 1 - The Policy Framework This section details the policy frame work for the proposal’s consideration, which includes European Energy Policy, UK Renewable Energy Policy, Welsh Renewable Energy Policy, National Planning Guidelines, including TAN’s’ and the Council’s Unitary Development Plan policies. Section 2 Page 6- Site History This section details the site’s history, with particular reference to the application being a resubmission of the scheme for the development of a wind farm on the current site. A scheme for the provision of 19 large turbines was considered by this Council, and subsequently the Welsh Minister following a Public Inquiry into the Council’s non-determination of the application, in 2010. The Council’s objection to the scheme, together with the objections and representations on interested parties, were considered by the Inquiry Inspector who recommended to the Welsh Minister that “the risk of an unacceptable degree of harm to the peat habitat is sufficient to justify refusal of this proposal”. This recommendation was accepted by the Minister, and permission was refused on this ground. Subsequent legal challenges quashed and then restored the decision. Reference is also made to the permission granted by Carmarthenshire County Council for a wind farm on land adjacent to the current proposal at Mynydd y Betws. Section 3 Page 9 – Consultations This section details the consultations undertaken on the proposal and the extensive responses received. Responses from interested parties include two petitions of objection with a total of 776 names, and 1263 letters. The action group SOCME has made both initial objections to the proposal and submitted a detailed critique of the scheme, which is reproduced in full in Appendices C to G of this report. Page 3 . Overriding concerns relate to the visual impact of the proposal, its ecological, biological and archaeological impact, the loss of, and disruption to, common land and its grazing, and the inherent financial weaknesses of windfarm power generation. Also, 504 letters of support have been received, commenting in the main on the economic benefits that would accrue to the local economy from the proposal, the community benefits that would accompany it, and the need for sustainable energy developments to be supported. In terms of statutory consultations, no objections have been made, subject to particular issues being addressed. Of particular importance is the response of no objection from the Countryside Council for Wales as it was CCW’s objection on grounds of the effect on the peat deposits that caused the Inspector & Welsh Minister to dismiss the developer’s previous appeal. The deletion of three turbines and their associated access tracks and hard standings has addressed the issue. The Council employed Landscape Consultants to assess the scheme. These were the same experts that supported the Council at the Public Inquiry into the previous proposal. Their conclusion was that the amendment of the scheme from 19 turbines to 16 would “probably not reduce the magnitude of landscape or visual impacts given the overall visibility of this proposed large scale development comprising 127m high turbines in the landscape”.

    Newsletter 30 LEAFMINESNEWSLETTER M a rch 2 0 15 Recent additions to the host plant list The host plant list for Britisn leafminers of Pitkin and Plant is maintained on both the leafmine site (www.leafmines.co.uk and the UKflymines site (www.ukflymines.co.uk). If a host plant is not listed on these websites you may assume that it will be new to the UK. We need proof that the addition is correct. It may be possible from photographic evidence or it may need breeding through to determine whether the identity is correct. It may need DNA analysis before a new host plant is added as Ian Barton and Kathleen Rosewarne found when they discovered Phyllonorycter mines on Chaenomeles japonica. The species was unclear even when he bred the moths out and performed a genitalia dissection. Subsequent DNA analysis indicated that the species was Phyllonorycter sorbi and a new host plant for this species was added to the list. (Barton & Rosewarne, Entomologist’s Rec J Var (2014) 126, 93-96). The following recent new additions are illustrated. Phyllonorycter leucographella (Lep:Lithocolletinae) on Elm (Ulmus) Page 2 www.leafmines.co.uk Steve Hind writes ‘I found this Phyllonorycter leucographella mine on Elm on 26.x.2014 in Hyde Park, Hyde, Cheshire, VC58, which may be a new food plant. The small Elm, about two feet tall, was growing through a Pyracantha bush and the mined leaf was amongst those of the Pyracantha, so I guess the female moth was easily confused when laying the egg.’ Photo © Steve Hind Coleophora albitarsella (Lep: Coleophoridae) on Salvia On 07.vii.2014 Stewart Wright found 40+ cases of Coleophora albitarsella feeding on Salvia africana azurea in his garden in Norfolk.

  • MONITORING REPORT 2020 BILL BUDD It Is with Great Sadness That We Must Report the Death of Bull Budd in Autumn 2020
    Wimbledon and Putney Commons ECOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING REPORT 2020 BILL BUDD It is with great sadness that we must report the death of Bull Budd in autumn 2020. Bill was our much respected, dragonfly and damselfly recorder and a member of the Wildlife and Conservation Forum. As well as recording on the Commons, Bill also worked as a volunteer at the London Natural History Museum for many years and was the Surrey Vice County Dragonfly Recorder. Bill supported our BioBlitz activities and, with others from the Forum, led dedicated walks raising public awareness of the dragonfly and damselfly populations on the Commons. In September 2020 in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the recording and conservation of Odonata, a newly identified dragonfly species found in the Bornean rainforest* was named Megalogomphus buddi. His contributions will be very much missed. * For further information see: https://british-dragonflies.org.uk/dragonfly-named-after-bds-county-dragonfly-recorder-bill-budd/ Dow, R.A. and Price, B.W.

  • BARAN T. on the New and Rare Microlepidoptera (Lepidoptera)
    POLISH JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY POLSKIE P I S M O ENTOMOLOGICZNE VOL. 77 : 133-143 Bydgoszcz 30 June 2008 On the new and rare Microlepidoptera (Lepidoptera) in Polish fauna TOMASZ BARAN Department of Invertebrate Zoology, University of Rzeszów, Cegielniana 12, 35-959 Rzeszów, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. For eighteen micro-moth species new distributional records are given. Dichomeris rasilella (HERRICH -SCHÄFFER , 1854) is for the first time reported from Poland. For Coleophora pulmonariella RAGONOT , 1874 the first reliable record is given. In addition, some diagnostic fea- tures of Dichomeris rasilella and Coleophora pulmonariella are also mentioned. In the paper, adult specimens of Argyresthia pulchella LIENIG & ZELLER , 1846, Chrysoclista splendida KARSHOLT , 1997, Coleophora pulmonariella , Coleophora onopordiella ZELLER , 1849, Dichomeris rasilella and Wockia asperipunctella (BRUAND , 1851), larval mines of Argyresthia thuiella (PACKARD , 1871) and Monochroa sepicolella (HERRICH -SCHÄFFER , 1854), as well as female genitalia, aedeagus and larval case of Coleophora pulmonariella are figured. KEY WORDS: Lepidoptera, Microlepidoptera, faunistics, new records, Poland. INTRODUCTION The latest comprehensive checklist of Polish Lepidoptera (BUSZKO & NOWACKI 2000) revealed among others that many regions of the country had not been sufficiently investi- gated in the past, as well as that many species, especially those of micro-moths had not been found again for even tens of years. Therefore, for a few years the author has been trying to fill this gap. In result of a recent field research, carried out predominantly in south eastern Poland in 2007, eighteen interesting records of Microlepidoptera have been found. In the article these faunistic data are presented. The seldom-collected moths treated here belong to the following families: Adelidae, Tineidae, Gracillariidae, Yponomeutidae, Elachistidae, Agonoxenidae, Scythrididae, Coleophoridae, Gelechiidae, Choreutidae, and Pterophoridae.
