LBAP partnership 1997 - 2007 Cotswold Water Park Biodiversity Action Plan (Marsh and Swamp) MS-T02
To create small areas of marsh and swamp habitats including reedbeds in the Cotswold Water Park. Target Date:- to be determined after survey described in Standing Open Water Habitat Action Plan, SOW-A01.

Methodology:
Record restoration plans of areas of new mineral extraction and plans for change of use for existing water bodies and monitor use of Water Park Society/EN Grants while in existence.

Target achieved 31/12/2007 SITA (Landfill Tax) 2008-2011.
Cotswold Water Park Society Project: Reedbed Creation at Cleveland Lakes (Project 1601): Funded by SITA Trust / ALSF, Creation of 6ha reed bed commencing spring 2008 as part of wider habitat creation and enhancement at Cleveland Lakes, ongoing reedbed monitoring and fencing with supplementary reed planting in 2009-2011

Small areas of reed bed created at:

Friday Island (Lake 55) 2003 onward. 2ha approx.

Lower Mill Estate, Lake 57, 2002 onwards: 1 ha approx of reed bed and lagoon created.

Lower Mill Estate, Lake 45, 2004: less than 0.25 ha of reed bed created around the central island.

Lake 75, Cerney Wick 2004. Construction of a single holiday lodge was accompanied by limitations to use of lake for water sports during the winter and accompanying habitat creation and enhancement for breeding and wintering waterbirds. 0.25 ha of reed created.

Lakes 31 and 32, Keynes Country Park: main reedbed of 0.25 ha is maintained by good management with accompanying areas of smaller reed cover established elsewhere on site.
LBAP partnership 1997 - 2007 Cotswold Water Park Biodiversity Action Plan (Otters) OT-T01
Maintain and enhance suitable habitats for Otters in the Cotswold Water Park.

Methodology:
Continue to monitor the Otter population in the Upper Thames Catchment on a monthly basis through the establishment of a network of volunteers recruited from the local population and through Wildlife Trusts. Ensure all information is passed to local EA officer for regional and national monitoring and reporting schemes.

Undertake a fuller assessment of the lake habitats in the CWP to identify habitat enhancements to improve the lakes for Otters, providing safe corridors of movement between lakes and rivers, and identifying quiet no-development areas to ensure any future Otter population remains viable.

Monitor implementation of enhancement agreements under the Upper Thames Otter Habitat Project.

More >
Target achieved 31/12/2007 In 1996, Otters were yet to be recorded using the Cotswold Water Park (based upon Sykes 2004, Upper Thames Otter Habitat Project: Habitat Assessment. A report by EA and BBONT). Otter field signs had been recorded on several of the Upper Thames tributaries during the early 1990’s including the Rivers Windrush and Coln. It is likely that Otters were starting to naturally recolonise the Cotswold Water Park, and during the lifespan of the CWP Biodiversity Action Plan 1996-2007, the Otter fully recolonised and established a breeding population in the Cotswold Water Park.

During 1999, The Otter Trust, Bungay, Norfolk, released 17 Otters in the Eastern Cotswold Water Park in a series of phased releases from several release locations. A number of these were killed within 12 months, e.g. road casualties. Successful breeding was recorded in the years following the release programme. The release programme undoubtedly supported the existing population present and enabled a more rapid establishment of a breeding population.

Habitat enhancements and provision of otter holts during 1996-2007, has undoubtedly enabled a more rapid colonisation of the Cotswold Water Park. During 2007, the Otter was considered by the Cotswold Water Park Society to have established breeding populations upon the River Thames and its tributaries; breeding was recorded in a number of locations during this time, with 2-3 breeding females suspected (anecdotal observations, G Harris 2007).

FOR FURTHER PROGRESS ON OT-T01, SEE PLAN OVERVIEW REPORT
LBAP partnership 1997 - 2007 Cotswold Water Park Biodiversity Action Plan (Standing Open Water and its Margins) SOW-T08
Seek to manage existing areas of shallow water as a duck marsh or wader scrape and to create two more extensive areas of shallow water of this kind, at least one by 2005. These areas of shallow water should be between 5-10 ha in size, consisting of 2 or more shallow basins with an average winter depth of 0.3-1.5m. If water level control is not feasible, the bed should be constructed to a range of depths relative to the known water levels in different seasons. Top soil should be spread inside the basins and trees and scrub kept away from the area.


Methodology:
Record restoration plans of areas of new mineral extraction and plans for change of use for existing water bodies and monitor use of Water Park Society/EN Grants while still in existence.

More >
Target achieved 31/12/2007 2007: In responding to both the Consultation Draft Gloucestershire Local Minerals Plan and the Deposit Draft of the Wiltshire & Swindon Local Minerals Plan conservation bodies have highlighted the opportunities for minerals extraction to deliver CWP BAP Targets and have recommended that if the restoration is to be open water, then part should be shallow wetlands.

Shorncote reedbed (Lakes 84/85): established as a maturing shallow water wetland with extensive shallows and muddy margins. Supporting high numbers of wintering waterbirds, in particular Teal and Shoveler.

Wheatleys Barn farm (Lake 95): purchased by new landowner in 2006; Cotswold Water Park Society staff working with landowner to create an extensive area of shallow wetland including extensive scrapes, shallow margins and wet grassland. Target species: breeding and wintering waterbirds and waders, water vole, invertebrates especially dragonflies.

Shorncote Quarry & Cotswold Community: Cotswold Water Park Society staff working with Hills Minerals & Waste and Wiltshire County Council to create an extension to the adjacent Shorncote Reedbed site; new habitats to include shallow water wetland, scrapes for waterbirds and invertebrates.

SITA (Landfill Tax) 2008-2011.
Cotswold Water Park Society Project: Reedbed Creation at Cleveland Lakes (Project 1601): Funded by SITA Trust / ALSF, Creation of 6ha reed bed commencing spring 2008 as part of wider habitat creation and enhancement at Cleveland Lakes, ongoing reedbed monitoring and fencing with supplementary reed planting in 2009-2011. Restoration scheme includes the creation of 3 gravel-topped islands and several reed-fringed islands for nesting waterbirds. Also 6ha or more of shallow water wetland, scrapes and ponds.
LBAP partnership 1997 - 2007 Cotswold Water Park Biodiversity Action Plan (Tufted Duck) TD-T02
To maintain and enhance the breeding Tufted Duck populations in the Cotswold Water Park by 20 broods by the year 2202.

Methodology:
Systematic recording of breeding population

Identify water bodies holding breeding Tufted Duck.

Monitor management for the identified sites.

More >
Target achieved 31/12/2007 Breeding waterbird surveys were undertaken again in 2007 by the Cotswold Water Park Society and a team of volunteers in order to assess summer water bird populations and the estimated number of breeding pairs of waterbirds in the CWP.

• Adams N, Harris G 2008. Breeding Waterbird Surveys of the Cotswold Water Park 2007. Part of the CWP BAP Implementation Project. Cotswold Water Park Society & Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. IN PRESS

Based upon these surveys, the CWP appears to support more than 1% of the national breeding population (and therefore meeting criteria for national importance) of Coot, Mute Swan, Great Crested Grebe, Tufted Duck, Gadwall and Red Crested Pochard.

During the 2007 surveys a methodology was established to be replicated 5 years hence. A series of key sites for breeding waterbirds was also established in order to promote protection and enhancement of the best sites for breeding waterbirds.

During these surveys a maximum of 124 pairs of Tufted Duck were recorded across the CWP (key limitations included the exceedingly poor weather during the 2007 breeding season). This accounts for approximately 1.55% of the Upper Range of national estimate (National data as per Baker et al 2005).

Although there is little comparable data with which to judge any changes in the breeding Tufted Duck population, it is likely that this target has been met. Increasing areas of wetland in the CWP (resulting from ongoing mineral restoration) and the maturation of the existing wetland to habitats suitable for breeding waterbirds (i.e. mature bankside vegetation) and the increase in the number of sites managed for nature conservation will support and enable an increase breeding waterbird populations. Furthermore, ongoing Mink control since 2002 will also support these populations by reducing predation of adults and juveniles during the breeding season.
LBAP partnership 1997 - 2007 Cotswold Water Park Biodiversity Action Plan (Water Vole) WV-T01
To protect all known colonies of the Water Voles in the Cotswold Water Park. Target date: Ongoing

Methodology:
Survey previously known vole sites in the CWP in 1997, as part of joint EA-Severn Trent/WWT/GWT Gloucestershire Vole survey. Pass information to local and national monitoring schemes through the local EA office.

Re-visit all known Water Vole colonies, noting whether Water Vole activity persists. Also note any new colonies that may have become apparent from habitat surveying.

Monitor level of advice given to site managers / land owners on habitat management appropriate for Water Voles.

More >
Target achieved 26/10/2008 Lower Mill Estate: extensive advice and guidance by Cotswold Water Park Society has enabled best practice management of river banks to be undertaken, supporting the large water vole population on site. Project is a demonstration project for other developers in the CWP.

LBAP partnership Brent Biodiversity Action Plan (Hedgerows) Hedgerows
To increase the hedgerow length at Fryent Country Park by 1km by 2012 (2013 survey); and to achieve a net increase in hedgerows in park and suburban locations elsewhere in the Borough.
More >
Some progress (on schedule) 31/12/2004 A baseline survey of remnant hedgerows in the Borough was undertaken in the late 1980s and reported in the London Naturalist. That survey has not been repeated; and the 1980s data is not strictly comparable with BAP habitat as it focused on remnant hedgerows and trees: many of which would now be included in other habitats within the urban area. It is possible that original hedgerow has continued to decline, albeit with some gains to other habitats (e.g. scrub, woodland, gardens).

Data for Fryent Country Park is comparable with that of 'hedgerow' habitat, and data is available at approximately ten year intervals. The following table is from the London Naturalist and published by the London Natural History Society. It shows increases in habitat since 1983 though a slight reduction in standard trees.

Changes in hedgerow features at Fryent Country Park from c.1961 to 2003.

Widths: An estimated average width of 7m was used for the 1983 estimates; in 1993 sample widths were measured in the field; and measurements were made by GIS for 2003.

SNH invites SARF to commission (or contribute to) research into the risk to biodiversity of ‘new’ aquaculture species, or to consider other approaches to this issue. SNH to make recommendations to the Ministerial Working Group on Aquaculture, in light of this research
More >
Some progress (on schedule) 13/04/2007 SARF awarded the project entitled ‘Novel species risk to biodiversity assessment study: as discussed within the Scottish Biodiversity Implementation Plans’ (Co-funded by Highland Council) to Aquatonics Ltd, resulting in a report being published in August 2006. Full details of the project can be accessed from http://www.sarf.org.uk/SARF022.htm.

The main aim of the study was to provide a common framework that the aquaculture industry may use to assess the possible risk to biodiversity of introducing a novel species. There is no suggestion that assessing this risk will be rapid, just that there could be a common framework within which to assess risk. A spreadsheet was produced as part of the project that will allow the relative risk of each species to be assessed. A list of factors related to novel aquaculture species that may affect biodiversity was produced; each of the factors has a weighting score which was developed through consultation with marine biologists and aquaculture scientists.

Mariculturalists may also use the spreadsheet approach to assess the potential reduction in risk to biodiversity if additional mitigation measures are introduced. For a particular proposal the approach may be used to highlight those issues where there is uncertainty and more information is required.

Target not achieved 31/01/2007 This is a long term target and could not have been achieved within the lifespan of this 1st implementation plan but good progress has been made on it in general. Its status is reported as "not achieved" due to the circumstances surrounding action 1.1e.
