Abstract:
The proposed construction of a new coal burning power station at Hams Hall near Birmingham may affect large areas of land. Included in these areas are a number of ponds, ditches and streams. An environmental assessment of the whole site (terrestrial and aquatic habitats) is currently being undertaken before final decisions are made on siting the power station. This report on the aquatic habitats is based upon Information collected during a 2-day visit to the site (29-30 July 1987). This involved visual assessment of all major water bodies and collection of larger Invertebrates from selected representative habitats.
