    10 Loch Long This designated Shellfish water was formerly Lochs Long and Goil. It was re- designated to just Loch Long in 2009. Name Loch Long Report Reference Number 10 WFD Code UKS7992310 An area inshore of lines drawn between NN 28520 Local Information 03858 and NN 28816 03178 and between NS 24909 96386 and NS 24244 96494 extending to MHWS..

The production area has been declassified by the Food Standards Agency due to lack of commercial harvesting. For more information on Food Standards Agency Classification please visit: http://www.food.gov.uk/scotland/safetyhygienescot/shellmonitorscot/shellclassesscot/ 10.2 Bathymetric Information Loch Long has a total length of 26.9 km and a catchment area of 166 km². Two sills divide Loch Long into two water areas or basins. One is located at the loch entrance (near Blairmore) and the other just northwest of Portincaple. The basins have a maximum water depth of 60 and 92 m. Maximum water depth for the loch is 97 m. As a whole, the loch takes on average 6 days to flush, although each basin will have its own flushing characteristics. Fresh/tidal flow ratio which reflects the influence of fresh water on the loch is 0.2, which is low for the size and volume of this loch, implying generally high salinity.

Introduction page 2 2. Physical Influences page 4 3. Human Influences page 11 4. Cultural Influences And Perception page 42 Title page photographs, clockwise from top left Loch Katrine from Ben A'an © Lorne Gill/NatureScot Mixed woodland near Aberfoyle © Lorne Gill/NatureScot Killin © George Logan/NatureScot The Inchcailloch ferry, Balmaha © Lorne Gill/NatureScot This document provides information on how the landscape of the local authority area has evolved. It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.

  • Ctog) Target ‘H’ Template for Developing Local Target Setting for Rural Services Priority Areas (Rspas) to Be Completed for Each RSPA
    Closing the Opportunity Gap (CtOG) Target ‘h’ Template for Developing Local Target Setting for Rural Services Priority Areas (RSPAs) To be completed for each RSPA CtOG Target ‘h’: By 2008, improve service delivery in rural areas so that agreed improvements to accessibility and quality are achieved for key services in remote and disadvantaged communities. 1. Geography of Rural Service Priority Area Community Planning Partnership Argyll and Bute Datazone number SO1000800 Name of ward within which datazone lies East Lochfyne, Holy Loch Intermediate geography number and name SO2000146, Cowal North 2. Description of services to be targeted for improvement, the boundary and equality impacts 2a) Describe the proposed service(s) to be included in the target. Include generic type (e.g. health/education); service deliver(s); and population to be targeted (e.g. age group) Advice Network online referrals – a collaboration between public, private and voluntary sector agencies to better coordinate provision of advice services. The system allows an organisation to refer a client to the appropriate source of advice that may be located at a distant site and track the referral through to its resolution or closure. This will improve access to advice services and referrals will ensure that the network plays to the strength of its members, thereby improving quality. Community transport – extension of the Cowal Deserve community transport scheme to the datazone area and support for purchase of a community bus to be owned by the Loch Goil Trust. Access to health services and a range of community activities will significantly improve. Extension of the Healthy Communities Collaborative – provision of training, support and materials to a local network that focuses on falls prevention in the elderly.

  • Friends of Botanic Gardens Forum Newsletter Edition 4
    FRIENDS OF BOTANIC GARDENS FORUM NEWSLETTER EDITION 4 1 Dear Friends, The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. (Chinese proverb) Well, here at last the 4th issue of the Friends of Botanic Gardens Forum. I have to first of all apologise for the delay in getting this out to you – but I suspect you are all doing as I have been doing these past few months – catching up with friends, family, holidays, your own gardens, considering future events – live or virtual over the forthcoming autumn/winter months and perhaps getting back to volunteering in the gardens/arboreta with whom you are associated. Next up I want to thank you all for your contributions – I have found it so interesting reading about the gardens and the activities of your groups and volunteers. The descriptions are tantalising and I look forward to visiting all of your spaces at some point in the not too distant future. You will note that a number of the gardens are celebrating significant anniversaries. We have already heard about the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh - 350 last year, and this year, Oxford Botanic Garden – 400, but we also have Dundee Botanic Garden celebrating 50 years. The project which the Friends at Dundee have supported will be a great asset to the garden and the Dundee community. It has been difficult to mark these occasions given the variable Covid restrictions. Any of you who have visited Edinburgh in the past might have seen the Floral Clock in Princes Street Gardens – last year, the RBGE was due to feature on the clock, but a decision was made to focus on the NHS in recognition of its extraordinary work during the Pandemic.

In 2009, in partnership with the National Park Authorities, this work was extended to determine the special qualities of the two National Parks, including the National Scenic Areas within them. The result of the work for the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park is reported here. Main findings • The park is large and diverse with significantly different landscape characteristics in different areas. Hence as well as listing the landscape qualities which are generic across the park, the qualities for the four landscape areas of Argyll Forest, Loch Lomond, Breadalbane and the Trossachs are also given.
