The section lies midway between Truro in the south and Perranporth in the north. The twelve-week consultation period commenced with a two-day exhibition held in Redruth on 7 & 8 May 2004. Consultation leaflets incorporating a questionnaire were issued to local residents and selected consultees in advance of the exhibition. Copies of the public consultation leaflet were also left at deposit points for collection by members of the public throughout the consultation period. The exhibition attracted 255 visitors and by the end of the consultation period, 336 responses were received. The vast majority of responses, some 94.3%, support in principle the improvement along the length of this trunk road. Some 89.2% of respondees found the details of the proposed route shown generally acceptable. Some 19.3% of the responses would like to see some changes to the proposals. Comments made by the public and referred to within this report have generally been reproduced with the language and terminology used by the respondees. Numerous issues were raised, however the majority of the comments were single responses. Issues raised included: Increase problem of “rat-running” through the village of Zelah; The impact of the proposed Chiverton Cross roundabout; Concerns over the closure of the Allet road; and General concerns over environmental issues. This list is by no means complete. Many others issues have been raised that are reviewed further within the report. It is recommended that the proposed route be taken forward to preferred route announcement and at detailed design stage due regard be given to the following issues that were identified during the Public Consultation: Investigate proposals to remove the possibility of exacerbating ‘rat running’ through the village of Zelah; Review the layout and design of the proposed Boxheater junction; Review the provisions for NMU’s and further consult directly with the various organisations on the proposals; and Review the proposed closure of the Allet Road. Page 1 A30 Carland Cross to Chiverton Cross 2 Introduction Improvement studies for this section of single carriageway have been under consideration since the early 1980’s when Cornwall County Council considered improvements for two separate sections between: Carland Cross and Zelah; and Zelah and Chiverton Cross Roundabout The Carland Cross to Zelah scheme was included in the Government’s White Paper: “Roads for Prosperity” in 1989. Further reviews were undertaken as part of the London to South West and South Wales Multi- Modal Study (“SWARMMS”- South West Area Multi- Modal Study) and were reported in 2002. SWARMMS concluded that the section had a significantly higher accident rate than the national average for this type of road and reported that safety improvements be undertaken. Hyder Consulting Limited (HCL) were appointed to review the recommendations from SWARMMS and develop scheme proposals. Traffic Surveys from October 2002 identified that a greater level of traffic flows than indicated by SWARMMS. The figures justified an improvement of the A30 between Carland Cross and Chiverton Cross to a dual carriageway standard. The scheme proposals were developed through a series of Value Management workshops (VMW). During the Value Management process many on-line and off-line route options were initially considered. These were subsequently assessed and several eliminated. The remaining route options were then prepared at a greater level of detail to enable the impact of each option to be assessed. Additional environmental and archaeological surveys were undertaken to identify the extent of any constraints. Following further evaluation and consultation the majority of the remaining options were rejected on either environmental, safety or engineering grounds. This left one option, which was taken to Public Consultation. The single preferred option minimises the adverse impact on local environmental and archaeological areas, whilst maintaining good highway engineering standard. In November 2003 the Secretary of State for Transport announced the addition of this scheme to the Targeted Programme of Improvements (TPI). The purpose of the Public Consultation was: To inform on the development of

  • Cobalt Mineralisation in Cornwall – a New Discovery at Porthtowan
    G.K. Rollinson, N. Le Boutillier and R. Selly COBALT MINERALISATION IN CORNWALL – A NEW DISCOVERY AT PORTHTOWAN G.K. ROLLINSON 1, N. LE BOUTILLIER AND R. SELLY Rollinson, G.K., Le Boutillier, N. and Selly, R. 2018. Cobalt mineralisation in Cornwall – A new discovery at Porthtowan. Geoscience in South-West England, 14, 176–187. Although cobalt mineralisation has been noted in Cornwall and Devon in the mining literature, there are limited details of its production and paragenesis; detailed mineral studies of cobalt are almost non-existent. This paper describes in detail previously unrecorded cobalt mineralisation discovered at Porthtowan, Cornwall, in the vicinity of old workings which are part of the Wheal Lushington group of mines, immediately west of the village. A small number of massive sulphide/gangue samples (taken from a larger sample suite) were chosen to be as representative as possible. Analysis was carried out using a QEMSCAN® automated mineral SEM-EDS system, which found that samples contained up to 50% cobaltite, along with chalcopyrite, bornite, galena, sphalerite, acanthite, erythrite, matildite, chlorargyite and other primary and secondary mineral species. This assemblage is typical of a sub-type of crosscourse mineralisation, with secondary species a result of significant weathering and supergene alteration, complicated by seawater infiltration due to the coastal location. While the number of samples is limited, the detail of the mineralogical assemblage is significant, as it is the first time such an assemblage has been subjected to this level of scientific scrutiny in Cornwall. 1 Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter, Cornwall Campus, Penryn, Cornwall, TR10 9FE, UK.

  • Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management
    Appendix A - Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has overall responsibility for flood risk management in England. Their aim is to reduce flood risk by: • discouraging inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding. • encouraging adequate and cost effective flood warning systems. • encouraging adequate technically, environmentally and economically sound and sustainable flood defence measures. The Government’s Foresight Programme has recently produced a report called Future Flooding, which warns that the risk of flooding will increase between 2 and 20 times over the next 75 years. The report produced by the Office of Science and Technology has a long-term vision for the future (2030 – 2100), helping to make sure that effective strategies are developed now. Sir David King, the Chief Scientific Advisor to the Government concluded: “continuing with existing policies is not an option – in virtually every scenario considered (for climate change), the risks grow to unacceptable levels. Secondly, the risk needs to be tackled across a broad front. However, this is unlikely to be sufficient in itself. Hard choices need to be taken – we must either invest in more sustainable approaches to flood and coastal management or learn to live with increasing flooding”. In response to this, Defra is leading the development of a new strategy for flood and coastal erosion for the next 20 years. This programme, called “Making Space for Water” will help define and set the agenda for the Government’s future strategic approach to flood risk. Within this strategy there will be an overall approach to the assessing options through a strong and continuing commitment to CFMPs and SMPs within a broader planning framework which will include River Basin Management Plans prepared under the Water Framework Directive and Integrated Coastal Zone Management.
