We continue to receive many requests for information concerning the county's flora and fauna and, as building developments and changes in,iand uses continue apace, it is even more important that we continue to submit records so ~at a complete and accurate picture can be built up of all the important sites. Because of the amom'lt and importance of the work being carried out by the Scientific Committee the position of Secretary of that committee has now been elevated to that of a Council Officer. A good selection of meetings covering a wide variety of topics has been provided throughout the year and all have, in general, been well attended. The one day course at Shuttleworth and the trip to Yorkshire were both very successful. A Special General Meeting was called in October to clarify the position regarding publication of the book and the Council is pleased to report that it is now in the hands of the publishers. The Council wishes to thank the Book Committee for the many hours that they have worked on this project. The Publicity Committee has been actively engaged in promoting the Society throughout the county and, as a result of their hard work our membership has further increased to 465. Our fortieth year was celebrated in style with an Anniversary Dinner at which two of our founder members, John Dony and Henry Key delighted a large and receptive audience with their reminiscences about the Society. Everyone agreed that it was a great success. The Council regrets to announce that Dr Dony has decided to relinquish his post as Recorder of Flowering Plants, Ferns and Fern Allies, a position he has held with distinction since the formation of the Society in 1946. Also, after nine years, Mr Barry Nightingale is giving up his post as Recorder of Birds due to work commitments. During the year Mr Thomas resigned as Recorder of Spiders. The Council wishes to thank them all for their efforts and the efficient way in which they have carried out their responsibilities. It is with regret that the Society learned of the death of Mr Roy Wagstaff who, for many years edited The Muntjac. 1986 has been a very busy year characterised by a great deal of hard work and the Council would like to pass on its thanks to all those involved in organising meetings, courses and fieldtrips, to Brenda Chandler for so ably taking over the editorship of The Muntjac and to Chris Boon, the editor of the Bedfordshire Naturalist.

  • Covanta Rookery Pit Incinerator - Reference No EPR/WP3234DY/A001
    Covanta Rookery Pit Incinerator - Reference No EPR/WP3234DY/A001 Dear Sirs I am writing to you on behalf of Bedfordshire Against Covanta Incinerator (BACI) - A coalition of Residents, Parish & Borough Councillors and Action Groups members who are proactively expressing their concern and - where appropriate - protesting against the Covanta Incinerator at Rookery Pit. There is a great deal of public interest in this development as demonstrated by the following: 3,626 people have signed our petition located at https://www.gopetition.com/petitions/stop-covanta- building-an-efw-incinerator-plant.html - paper copy available if requested in writing Our Facebook group member numbers are currently 1,448 Our website has received 8,287 visits since its launch in November 2016 We believe that a permit should not be granted by the Environment Agency to Covanta to operate an Incineration Plant to be located at Rookery Pit South, Bedfordshire. There are a great many factors involved in this development the Environment Agency must take into consideration. These include: Covanta as an operator, Veolia as a supplier, the time elapsed since planning approval, the local area weather issues, the local area impacts, impacts further afield, Greenhouse Gases impact/Carbon Budget and Government Policies. Since the Covanta Incinerator received planning permission in 2011 there have been a number of new and updated Governmental and EU policies regarding the Environment that will have significance in this permit decision. These include (but are not limited to) - Natural Environment White Paper, the England Biodiversity Strategy, Water for Life, the Waste Policy Review, the National Climate Change Adaptation Programme, the revised EU air quality standards and the Green Book: valuation of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.
