  • River Kennet – Craven Fishery

    River Kennet – Craven Fishery

    River Kennet – Craven Fishery An Advisory Visit by the Wild Trout Trust November 2014 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a site meeting and walk-over survey of the Craven Fishery on the River Kennet at Hampstead Marshall in Berkshire. The request for the visit came from the owner of the fishery, Mr. Richard White. Mr. White is keen to explore opportunities to enhance and improve the fishery. The quality of the fishery, and in particular water quantity and quality have been in steady decline over the last 25 years and is thought to be linked to a combination of factors, including the restoration and re-opening of the Kennet and Avon Canal, increased abstraction pressures at Axford and the arrival of non-native signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. White and the river keeper Mr. Geoff Trotman Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification, i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. Map 1 Craven Fishery 2 The Craven fishery lies just downstream from a short section of combined river and navigation channel. The river and canal converge below Copse Lock and separate at the head of the Craven Fishery at NGR SU 421679. Through the Craven Fishery, the river channel runs parallel with the Kennet and Avon Canal before the two channels re-join near the bottom boundary of the fishery at SU 431667. The fishery itself consists of a section of main-river and a shorter section of milling channel.

    15 Road Drainage and the Water Environment

    HIGHWAYS AGENCY – M4 JUNCTIONS 3 TO 12 SMART MOTORWAY 15 ROAD DRAINAGE AND THE WATER ENVIRONMENT 15.1 Introduction 15.1.1 This chapter assesses the impacts of the Scheme on road drainage and the water environment during construction and operation, focussing on the effects of highway drainage on the quality and hydrology of receiving waters. In view of the long design-life of the Scheme (30 years for new gantries, 40 years for new carriageway construction, and 120 years for new bridges), the decommissioning phase of the Scheme has not been considered in this chapter because its effects are not predicted to be worse than the effects assessed during the construction and operational phases. The chapter assesses four principal impacts: a) effects of routine runoff on surface water bodies; b) effects of routine runoff on groundwater; c) pollution impacts from spillages; and d) flood impacts. 15.1.2 Although Interim Advice Note (”IAN”) 161/13 ‘Managed Motorways, All lane running’ (Ref 15-1) has scoped out the assessment of ‘Road Drainage and the Water Environment’ for smart motorway schemes, the assessment is required to ensure the protection of the water environment, to prevent its degradation, and ensure adequate mitigation measures are in place to prevent any adverse impacts. 15.1.3 The road drainage and water environment assessment for the Scheme has been undertaken in accordance with standard industry practice and statutory guidance. 15.1.4 This chapter details the methodology followed for the assessment, and summarises the regulatory and policy framework relating to road drainage and the water environment.

Cruising Notes Day 1 The canal sweeps through undulating woodland and arable farmland past the rural village ofSemington through a series of swing bridges which are something of a hallmark of this section of canal. There are 2 locks at Semington and a swing bridge, it is a very pretty village & best access is just before the lock. Moor up here for the night it is 1 hour cruising from the marina.

  • Atkins: AMP5 Water Quality Investigations: Kennet & Avon

    Atkins: AMP5 Water Quality Investigations: Kennet & Avon

    Executive summary This report presents the findings of investigations commissioned by Thames Water to meet its obligations under the Environment Agency’s National Environment Programme (NEP) to determine what scope exists for reducing the adverse water quality impacts of the Kennet and Avon Canal on the River Kennet SSSI by targeting investment at those Thames Water’s sewage treatment works (STWs) which discharge into the Kennet and Avon Canal. The primary focus is to determine whether reducing phosphorus inputs from Thames Water’s STWs would significantly reduce the algal blooms in the canal and, if or where appropriate, to identify those works where measures would be most cost-effective. As a result of nutrient inputs, the Kennet and Avon Canal has become hyper-eutrophic; the canal exhibits annual algal blooms, turning from a milky green to orange through algal succession. Fisheries investigations on the Canal indicate a thriving population of coarse fish (Environment Agency. Pers. Comm.); however, where the canal discharges / overflows into the River Kennet SSSI there appear to be a number of impacts including: changes in water clarity (impacting on amenity and fishery) and consequent impacts on macrophyte growth and clogging of spawning beds. The impacts are perceived to be immediately apparent downstream of Copse Lock, through Craven Fishery and the Benham Estate which border the Kennet SSSI as far as the western outskirts of Newbury. The Kennet & Avon Canal is supported by pumping from Wilton Water, a shallow reservoir at the canal summit near Crofton. The reservoir is largely baseflow (groundwater) fed but also receives input from the discharge of treated effluent from Wilton and East Grafton sewage treatment works (STWs).

Discussion of the problem The Kennet & Avon Canal was re-opened in 1990 after a lengthy period of restoration. It joins the River Avon in Bath with the River Thames in Reading, interacting with the River Kennet between Kintbury and Reading (Figure 1.1). Figure 1. 1 - Major interaction points of the Kennet with the K&A canal On the eastern arm of the canal, from the summit near Burbage to Reading, the main water source is Wilton Water which provides a groundwater-fed supply of water to the upper reaches of the canal to maintain navigation. The canal flows alongside the River Dun to Hungerford. At a number of points along this route, water from the canal may be discharged via overflow weirs to the River Dun. The River Dun flows into the River Kennet in Hungerford. From Hungerford, the canal runs east to Reading in close association with Kennet. There is an exchange of waters from canal to river and vice versa. Approximately half way between Hungerford and Newbury, the River Kennet and Kennet & Avon canal join and follow the same channel for a short distance.
