As a result, it is important to manage forestry within vulnerable areas to ensure that the problem is not exacerbated and opportunities for improvement are realised. Areas vulnerable to acidification are defined as the catchments of river and lake water bodies identified by Natural Resources Wales as the water regulatory body, as failing or at risk of failing Good Ecological Status due to acidification. Failing water bodies are those where the acidity of out-flowing waters exceeds the Water Framework Directive chemical standards for pH or Acid Neutralising Capacity. The UKFS Practice Guide Managing forests in acid sensitive water catchments - Forest Research describes measures that can be taken to minimise adverse impacts. NRW has also published guidance on how it implements this aspect of the standards in Wales - gn001-managing-forests-in-acid-sensitive-water-catchments-in-wales.pdf (cyfoethnaturiol.cymru). New woodland creation proposals in acid sensitive areas should be considered in relation to these guides and actioned accordingly. See GN002 for more detail. completed originator ESRI Shapefile 1.0 features GWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments theme Global place license Open Government Licence for Public Sector Information (OGL): (https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/) en utf8 -5.0606401049907275 -3.0160936452958134 51.54105393917697 53.188687862719604 https://datamap.gov.wales WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Online link to the 'WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment' description on GeoNode https://datamap.gov.wales/uploaded/thumbs/layer-2a89be28-f283-42ae-a65e-2a1bb12c0280-thumb.png?v=1c673012 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .png WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (Thumbnail Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WMS&request=GetLegendGraphic&format=image/png&WIDTH=20&HEIGHT=20&LAYER=geonode:GWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&STYLE=GWC21_acid_sensitive_catchments&version=1.3.0&sld_version=1.1.0&legend_options=fontAntiAliasing:true;fontSize:12;forceLabels:on WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .png WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (Legend Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=json&srs=EPSG%3A27700&srsName=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .json WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (GeoJSON Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=excel&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .excel WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (Excel Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=csv&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .csv WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (CSV Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=text%2Fxml%3B+subtype%3Dgml%2F3.1.1&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .gml WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (GML 3.1.1 Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=gml2&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .gml WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (GML 2.0 Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=dxf&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .dxf WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (DXF Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=gpkg&srs=EPSG%3A27700 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .gpkg WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (OGC Geopackage Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&outputFormat=SHAPE-ZIP&srs=EPSG%3A27700&format_options=charset%3AUTF-8 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .zip WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (Zipped Shapefile Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WMS&request=GetMap&layers=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&format=image%2Fpng&height=550&width=410&srs=EPSG%3A27700&bbox=195450.0%2C186590.0%2C329680.0%2C366250.0 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .png WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (PNG Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WMS&request=GetMap&layers=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&format=application%2Fpdf&height=550&width=410&srs=EPSG%3A27700&bbox=195450.0%2C186590.0%2C329680.0%2C366250.0 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .pdf WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (PDF Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows?service=WMS&request=GetMap&layers=geonode%3AGWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments&format=image%2Fjpeg&height=550&width=410&srs=EPSG%3A27700&bbox=195450.0%2C186590.0%2C329680.0%2C366250.0 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .jpg WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (JPEG Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/download/1551 WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download .zip WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment (Original dataset Format) https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows OGC:WFS geonode:GWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments Service - Provides Layer: WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment https://datamap.gov.wales/geoserver/ows OGC:WMS geonode:GWC21_Acid_Sensitive_Catchments Service - Provides Layer: WOM21 Acid Sensitive Catchment dataset Data source: https://datamap.gov.wales/layers/inspire-nrw:NRW_ACID_SENSITIVE_WB_CYCLE2_2016
