The levels of Toluene and Xylene obtained in the current work are far below ambient
guideline values, and all results fall
results fell into the MfE
‘Excellent’ air quality category. Three of the four
benzene results were within the MfE ‘Acceptable’
category. One result fell within the ‘Good’ category.
The Council also monitors for VOCs around
significant potential sources, such as gas production
stations, as part consent compliance programmes.
Results always fall well within guideline values.

tunnels, where the water flows from the river into the canal. It is likely that flow velocities through the tunnels
are the primary influence on fish passage, although during low lake levels, water will fall into the intake, which
smaller fish will struggle to negotiate.
Previous survey data show that smelt and torrentfish have been recorded upstream of the weir, with torrentfish
recorded more frequently, though not in abundance. In addition, the station owner/operator reports observing
