Anglesey Plants and the Flora Group in 2014: Ian Bonner
Anglesey Plants and the Flora Group in 2014: Ian Bonner (As appeared in the Welsh Bulletin of the BSBI No.95 February 2015) Before the first indoor meeting at Treborth in March Pat Denne used the 9597 records added in 2013 to update the map showing the total taxa recorded in each of the 800 monads. Andrew Dixon made an electronic version of it available for subsequent reference. At the meeting it was again agreed to concentrate effort on collecting monad data toward the Atlas 2020, a future county flora and keeping the Rare Plant Register up to date. Barry Wrightson kindly agreed to take over the circulation of information about recording days and the coordination of bookings. Over the weekend of 26-27th April Professor John Richards and Dr Tim Rich led a Taraxacum workshop at Treborth, which included field visits to parts of Anglesey and Caernarfonshire. Some 39 taxa were noted on Anglesey, of which 26 were new VC records and will be published in Plant Records in due course. This illustrates the need for targeted recording of difficult taxa to back up basic monad coverage in the run-up to Atlas 2020. Atriplex species (Oraches) on coastal strandlines come into this category. They featured in the 2013 Report and Paul Green came up in early September to assist and make collections. Based on further work this year, it appears that as well as six species, the Anglesey coast may have a complex of four different hybrids. Material is now with the BSBI Referee for the genus. Atriplex portulacoides (Sea-purslane) is one that is easy to spot. -

This assessment was undertaken in accordance with Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) guidelines (Defra, 2006a). Because of the large number of watercourses within the study area a screening exercise was carried out which identified all significant watercourses within the study area and determined whether these should be carried through to the Appendix F assessment. The screening exercise identified that the following watercourses should be subjected to the full Appendix F assessment: . -

The Development of Key Characteristics of Welsh Island Cultural Identity and Sustainable Tourism in Wales
SCIENTIFIC CULTURE, Vol. 3, No 1, (2017), pp. 23-39 Copyright © 2017 SC Open Access. Printed in Greece. All Rights Reserved. DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.192842 THE DEVELOPMENT OF KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF WELSH ISLAND CULTURAL IDENTITY AND SUSTAINABLE TOURISM IN WALES Brychan Thomas, Simon Thomas and Lisa Powell Business School, University of South Wales Received: 24/10/2016 Accepted: 20/12/2016 Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper considers the development of key characteristics of Welsh island culture and sustainable tourism in Wales. In recent years tourism has become a significant industry within the Principality of Wales and has been influenced by changing conditions and the need to attract visitors from the global market. To enable an analysis of the importance of Welsh island culture a number of research methods have been used, including consideration of secondary data, to assess the development of tourism, a case study analysis of a sample of Welsh islands, and an investigation of cultural tourism. The research has been undertaken in three distinct stages. The first stage assessed tourism in Wales and the role of cultural tourism and the islands off Wales. It draws primarily on existing research and secondary data sources. The second stage considered the role of Welsh island culture taking into consideration six case study islands (three with current populations and three mainly unpopulated) and their physical characteristics, cultural aspects and tourism. The third stage examined the nature and importance of island culture in terms of sustainable tourism in Wales. This has involved both internal (island) and external (national and international) influences. -

Anglesey & Gwynedd Jldp (2011 – 2026) Public Inquiry
ANGLESEY & GWYNEDD JLDP (2011 – 2026) PUBLIC INQUIRY: Hearing Session 6 – NATURAL AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT Action Point S6/PG1 – General Refine policy wording to ensure consistency in terms of describing the degree of impact, i.e. the use, or not, of ‘significant’. Councils’ Response In respect of the policies pertaining to the natural and built environment, the Councils conisder that this is only an issue for policies PS16 and AT4 and are addressed under Action Points S6/PG5 and S6/PG10 respectively. Action Point S6/PG2 – Paragraph 7.5.2 Present Matters Arising Change to correct the last sentance of paragraph 7.5.2 to note that the whole of Anglesey has been designated by UNESCO as a Geopark. Councils’ Response After giving the matter further consideration it is considered that the sentence that refers to the GeoPark should be moved to the section relating to ‘landscape conservation’ rather than retain it within the section dealing with ‘nature conservation’. Also, it is considered that additional information should be included to explain the reason for the Island’s designation as a Geopark. Consequently , t he Councils wish to offer the following modifications (through Matters Arising Change): 7.5.2 Nature Conservation : Species of principal importance .................. Part of Anglesey is designated as a GeoPark. 7.5.4 Landscape conservation : Covering an area that incorporates the Anglesey Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Llyn Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, to the boundaries of the Snowdonia National Park, the Plan area has a distinctive and diverse landscape. As well as the nationally protected Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the wider Plan area has tracts of unspoilt countryside that are locally distinctive and worthy of designation as Special Landscape Areas. -
Strategic Flood Consequence Assessment (Level 1) 8
Topic Paper 8: Strategic Flood Consequence Assessment (Level 1) 8 Anglesey & Gwynedd Joint Local Development Plan February 2015 Strategic Flood Consequence Assessment (Level 1) Background This is one of a range of topic papers prepared to offer more detailed information and explain the approach of the Plan to different topics and issues affecting the Joint Local Development Plan Area. This paper will look specifically at ‘strategic flood consequence issues’ . It will explain the background which will help to identify the issues, objectives and options for the Deposit Plan. The Deposit Plan is the second statutory stage in the preparation of the Joint Local Development Plan (JLDP). The JLDP shapes the future growth of communities in the Joint Local Development Plan Area and will set out the policies and land allocations against which planning applications will be assessed. The Deposit Plan will be submitted to the Welsh Government, which will appoint an independent inspector to assess the soundness of the Plan in the Examination in Public. If the inspector considers the Plan to be sound it will be recommended for adoption. When adopted the JLDP will supersede the Gwynedd Unitary Development Plan (2009) for the Gwynedd Local Planning Authority Area and the Gwynedd Structure Plan (1993) and Ynys Môn Local Plan (1996) for the Ynys Môn Local Planning Authority. This topic paper can be read in isolation or in conjunction with the other Topic Papers and Background Papers that have been prepared to give a full picture the Joint Local Development Plan Area. You may refer to the Topic Paper as a basis for making comments about the Deposit Plan. -
