-
This was the first BJRA meeting I had attended and I must say it was most pleasing to hear that the last 12 months had been a relatively quiet period re the two major contentious issues - the Gravel Extraction and Flood Issues . However I was personally assured that the BJRA would continue to be vigilant in the future, with a constant "eye-open" for any possible surreptious advances by those wanting to gain by ressurecting this issue once again.
It was also good to learn at first hand - from existing officers of the BJ Preservation Society, also present at the meeting - that they fully backed and appreciated the work of the BJRA - Julie O'Neill in particular - for her expertise and constant endevours to thwart the development of mineral extration and her personal application in gaining further commitment by the Environmental Agency to finace the Bj Flood Protection with a £490,000 investment .
However we will all await with bated breath for the putting to bed and the completion of these two respective issues
