Published 1 November 2018

The notice

Announcement of intention not to prepare an environmental statement - Regulation 5 of the Environmental Impact Assessment (Land Drainage Improvement Works) Regulations 1999 as amended by SI 2005/1399 and SI 2006/618.

The work

The Environment Agency gives notice that it proposes to carry out improvement work to the flood defences on the Mevagissey Stream in Mevagissey adjacent to Mevagissey Community Fire Station on Valley Road (NGR SX 01180 45162).

The proposed improvement work will involve the installation of a new trash screen in the channel, a short distance upstream of the existing one to reduce the impact of screen blockages on the stream.

Intention not to prepare an environmental statement

The Environment Agency considers that the improvement work is not likely to have significant effects on the environment and does not intend to prepare an environmental statement in respect of it.
