Reaching such a significant milestone encourages one to look at such an Organisation in a more retrospective way and to ask the question: what is it we want to achieve over the next 50 years? I’ve been so impressed with the entire AST team who have thrown themselves at this challenge to make sure that the AST is more relevant than ever before and to focus research towards answering some of the key unknown potential contributors to salmon and smolt mortality. Making such decisions and then successfully following them through is by no means easy. It will require far greater funds than the organisation has ever raised; it means that we will need to become more vocal and involved in some of the more contentious issues surrounding salmon and sea trout survival. However, this is where the fight is and the more we can do to narrow and help frame the debates and arguments, through empirical and impartial research, the more likely we are to find ways to protect and nurture this struggling species. With returning salmon continuing to decline, we can no longer afford to focus on the periphery, but need to wade into the heart of the issues. To everyone reading this, many thanks for your support for the AST. I hope, as I do, that you approve of the direction the organisation is taking and the work it is doing. They’re a fantastic and dedicated team and I really think that the next few years will shed some real light on areas little understood but vital in our fight to reduce salmon and smolt mortality.’ Earl Percy President of The Atlantic Salmon Trust 4 THE ATLANTIC SALMON TRUST WELCOME His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales & Earl Percy meet the AST Salmon 5 Patron’s Speech May 27th 2017 Gala Dinner Syon Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, an important part in the fragile economies of many marginal first of all, I am enormously grateful communities. So when stocks decline there is far more at stake to His Majesty for responding so than a heavenly day’s fishing. That, of course, is why I am so positively to my invitation and pleased and proud to be Patron of the Atlantic Salmon Trust giving up his precious time to be and to have been so for the past thirty-three years of its fifty with us on this important occasion. years existence. Now, I well recall visiting Norway As many of you may recall, the Trust was formed in 1967 forty-seven years ago and having against a depressing backdrop of rampant salmon disease and a brief opportunity in-between an increasingly difficult situation in relation to netting off the engagements to cast a fly in the Greenland and Faroese coasts. The founders of the Trust were river Rauma where, of course, I was very clear that, without objective science, management could regaled by old fishing stories about my great grandfather, not tackle these very difficult and seemingly intractable issues. King George V, who had inevitably caught a forty or fifty That was a far-sighted approach and as important now as it pounder in precisely the place where I was fishing!

Having started fishing for Salmon at the age of seven in 1955, The expectation was that, with these problems under control, when the rivers were crammed with fish and the seasons Atlantic salmon stocks would rebound and rebound quickly. were in their proper places, I have never really wanted to However, this simply did not happen, and within a few years fish for anything else and over the years my fascination has it became clear that Man’s influence on the life cycle of the extended to wanting to know much more about this most salmon was much more profound. enigmatic and noble of species.

  • Wonston Wonston with Sutton Scotney
    Wonston Wonston with Sutton Scotney 1.0 PARISH Wonston (now includes Hunton and Stoke Charity) 2.0 HUNDRED Buddlesgate 3.0 NGR 447700 139550 4.0 GEOLOGY Upper Chalk; Alluvium 5.0 SITE CONTEXT (Map 2) Wonston CP now includes Hunton (formerly a tithing of Crawley) and Stoke Charity. On the other hand, a strip of land across the south of the parish has been hived-off as the new parish of South Wonston. For this reason the south boundary of Wonston parish has been partly determined by some relatively modern features such as post- medieval enclosure fences and a dismantled railway line. The old east boundaries of Stoke Charity and Hunton now perform the same function for Wonston. To the south- west, the Roman road to Salisbury forms part of the parish limit whilst the west and north boundaries seem to be based upon a combination of marker points including natural features, post-medieval fields and traditional land divisions. The river Dever, a tributary of the Test, cuts across the parish from east to west. This watercourse has attracted a number of settlements. On the north bank are the former manors of Norton and Cranbourne where there are watercress beds. Here too, is the Crawley tithing of Hunton. South of the river (west to east) are Sutton Scotney, Wonston and Stoke Charity. The settlement of Wonston is just above the flood plain of the Dever at c. 63m AOD. It is reached from the west via a minor road from Sutton Scotney. This road also passes through Stoke Charity (east) and on into the neighbouring parish of Micheldever.

Recommendation - Raise No Objection Ward : 20 Inverness South Development Category : Section 36 Application – Electricity Act 1989. Pre-determination Hearing : Not Required Reason referred to Committee : 5 or more objections. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The application is to facilitate an increased power output from the 20 turbine wind farm project previously granted planning permission, on appeal, within Moy Estate. It offers a potential 66MW of generating capacity, an increase from the potential 41MW generating capacity associated with the approved scheme. 1.2 The application was submitted to the Scottish Government for approval under Section 36 of the Electricity Act 1989. Should Ministers approve the development, it will carry deemed planning permission under Section 57(2) of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997. The Council is a consultee on the proposed development. Should the Council object to the development, Scottish Ministers will require to hold a Public Local Inquiry to consider the development before determining the application. 1.3 As the application is not significantly different to the earlier planning application, the supporting information relies upon the Environmental Statement (ES) prepared for the planning application. In a similar way this report seeks to focus on the key differences between the applications and to update Committee on changes to those policy/material considerations relevant to the applications to help the Committee determine its position on the consultation from the Scottish Government.

  • The Glen Kyllachy Granite and Its Bearing on the Nature of the Caledonian Orogeny in Scotland
    J. geol. Soc. London, Vol. 140, 1983, pp. 47-62, 4 figs., 3 tables. Printed in Northern Ireland The Glen Kyllachy Granite and its bearing on the nature of the Caledonian Orogeny in Scotland 0. van Breemen & M. A. J. Piasecki SUMMARY:The Tomatin (Findhorn) Granite in the NW GrampianHighlands has been separatedinto two distinct complexes: alate-tectonic Glen Kyllachy Granite (tectonically foliated) and a post-tectonic Findhorn Granite (flow foliated). For the Glen Kyllachy complex, Rb-Sr analyses of muscovites from the granite and from an associated suite of cross-foliated pegmatites yield an emplacement age of 443T:5 Ma. Whole-rock Rb-Sr data support field and textural evidence that the pegmatite and granite emplacement was late-tectonic to the last (F3) phase of Caledonian folding. Initial granite X7Sr/X6Srof 0.7176 supports field and geochemical evidence of derivationfrom upper crustal metasediments first metamorphosedduring the Grenville event. For the Findhorn Granite, concordant Rb-Sr and K-Ar mineral data establish an age of 413 2 5 Ma, and an initial *'SriX6Sr of c. 0.706 indicates a lower crustal and/or mantle source. Thisage and isotopiccontrast between these granites is characteristic of the whole Grampian region, in which a plutonic hiatus between c. 440 and 415Ma coincides with the peak of sedimentary accretion in the Southern Uplands, and may be explained in terms of the lack of hydrous materials passing down the associated subduction zone. Structural, metamorphic and radiometric evidence suggests (a) that the late-F3 Glen Kyllachy pegmatites are comparable with the 442 f 7 Ma old, syn-F3 pegmatites in the N Highlands- both pegmatite suites are situated in the axial zone of the metamorphic Caledonides displaced by the GreatGlen Fault; and (b) thatthe Caledonian, c.
