    5k Environmentol Protection Report WATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 April 1992 FW P/9 2/ 0 0 1 Author: B Steele Technicol Assistant, Freshwater NRA National Rivers Authority CVM Davies South West Region Environmental Protection Manager HATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 _ . - - TECHNICAL REPORT NO: FWP/92/001 The maps in this report indicate the monitoring locations for the 1992 Regional Water Quality Monitoring Programme which is described separately. The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a. EC Dangerous Substances Directive b. EC Freshwater Fish Water Quality Directive c. DOE Harmonised Monitoring Scheme d. DOE Red List Reduction Programme c.

  • Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study
    CORNWALL AND ISLES OF SCILLY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER STUDY Overview and Technical Report Final Report May 2007 Forward The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study 2005-2007 has been developed as a joint project between the local authorities in Cornwall, the National Trust and the AONB units of Cornwall, the Tamar Valley and the Isles of Scilly supported by the Countryside Agency (now Natural England). Diacono Associates in conjunction with White Consultants were appointed in 2005 to undertake a Landscape Character Assessment for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. This updates the Cornwall Landscape Assessment published in 1994. This report sets out the methodology by which Landscape Character Areas have been identified, based on Landscape Description Units, and brings together the main findings of the study including the initial consultation stages. Part of the study included an assessment of landscape sensitivity at the level of the Landscape Description Units. This aspect of the study is however to be the subject of further investigation and the findings set out in this report have not therefore been endorsed at this stage by the participating organisations. This report will form the basis of a number of areas of further research and investigation including landscape sensitivity, and seascape assessment as well as the further consultation on the draft Landscape Character Area Descriptions.

The Council notes that you do not consider that sufficient information has been presented to date to demonstrate that the local circumstances of South Cambridgeshire are sufficient to justify an affordable housing threshold lower than that included in the Written Ministerial Statement and now comprising national planning policy. On 12 September 2016, the Council submitted its statement to Matter SC5 – Delivering High Quality Homes, which addressed a series of your questions relating to Policy H/9 Affordable Housing. The Matters and Issues included a question relating to the viability of small scale residential development, but did not raise any wider questions about the appropriateness of the 3 dwelling threshold in the context of the WMS nor was there any discussion at the examination hearings into the justification for departing from the WMS. As such, whilst the Council in its response referred to the Written Ministerial Statement, the Council’s full position as to local circumstance justification was not presented at this stage. Your letter indicates that you would welcome the Council’s comments with regard to the matter of the affordable housing threshold.
