1/2 A really good overview of the updated Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive. The changes are a really positive development that address some of the issues identified in our national parks study where some small works were shown to be the most polluting. ohbp.org/2024/11/08/revised-…

Fascinating walk around the village last night with @Addingham_Group and @wns_nats looking at the spaces given over to help nature. Thanks to all the hard work of the volunteers over the years 👏

We are letting the grass grow for No Mow May. This provides food for pollinators and helps lock away carbon underground. No Mow May is a national campaign by conservation charity Plantlife. orlo.uk/ZGmkL

An article in the Yorkshire Post today about the @Riverflies monitoring after a pollution incident on the Holme and Skeeby watercourses which flow into the Swale. Well done, @ProfJGrey @YorkDalesRT and the other angling clubs involved.

2: Malham Beck formerly realigned & shackled with walling to LB (not drystone wall!) to consistent, overly wide & shallow profile. Now walling removed & returned to raise bed + #LWM to kick flow around, giving the beck tools to 'rewiggle' itself + re-engage with floodplain #UAP

SEPA #Hydrometry river flow measurements taken over the weekend are mind blowing! They measured 1600 cumecs on river Tay at Ballathie. That's 1600 tonnes of water every second! Fantastic effort capturing such vital data guys! 👏 3 metres per second speed & pushing 4 in places! 🤯
