12. Actions for reducing soil erosion P D N Partner Mechanism Service a. Planning policies to create buffer zones around water courses, ponds and wetlands. This zone should be without structures, hard standing, footpaths, fences or overhanging development such as balconies and should not include domestic gardens or formal landscaping. Local Authorities Natural England Environment Agency Local Development Frameworks NW River Basin Management Plan Surface water River flood Species Water resources Coastal flood b. In areas where there is high visitor pressure, ensure that footpaths are maintained to reduce erosion (see actions 11b and 14b). National Parks Authorities Tourism Managers BTCV Tourism Strategies Management Plans Visitor Tourism policy should recognise the reliance that the visitor economy has and puts on key landscapes and work to ensure that their use as a visitor resource is sustainable. Also see actions 1a-j, 4b, 5b, 6b, 7a, 10a-b, 11a-c, and 14a-b which deliver this service. 52

(Navigate to GRaBS Partners > NW England > Environmental vulnerability > Soil erosion risk). Soil erosion risk here combines soil erodability (taking into account soil texture and slope), soil erosivity (taking into account precipitation and temperature) and land cover vulnerability.
