Other

Other structures (e.g. boat moorings, walls, jetties, fishing platforms) should be recorded as follows:


Major: occupying >=25m of bank-length.


Intermediate: occupying 10-25m of bank-length

Minor: occupying <10m of bank-length.

Examples of other artificial structures:

Artificial mooring

Fishing platforms

It is important only to record distinct structures as opposed to bank modifications for buildings and revetments.

Is water impounded by weir/dam?

If a weir or dam is present, indicate if water in the site is affected partly (<33% of its length) or predominantly (>=33% of its length) by artificial channel impoundment. You will need to include the effects of weirs or dams located downstream from the site if appropriate. Effects of impoundment include water velocity reductions (creating ponded water) and increased water depth. Tick one box only.
