Document Type: Monograph
Abstract:
The first year of the Action Plan has seen good progress with real improvements to the catchment. The Action Plan set 15 key objectives for the Agency and others to work towards. There has been clear progress towards all those objectives. The objectives have guided our actions and those of others in the catchment to help improve the environment in a coordinated way. There were 37 issues highlighted in the Action Plan with a total of 135 actions over the 5 year plan. Of these a total of 11 have now been completed and 108 programmed specific actions are underway and on schedule. Progress has been made on all these actions. We have not progressed according to plan with 7 actions, but work will continue on them. There are 9 actions which are scheduled to start in the coming years and 1 new action has been added following consultation. The plan will be reviewed again in January 1998. Work on the development of a.Local Environment Agency Plan will commence in April 1998 building upon the success of the Catchment Management Plan and will lead to further protection and improvement of the environment.
