Volume 4 - Environmental Report Waterford County Development Plan 2011-2017 Plean Forbartha Chontae Phort Láirge 2011-2017 Volume 4 - Environmental Report Waterford County Council STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT STATEMENT WATERFORD COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW 2011 - 2017 February 2011 Waterford County Council Comhairle Chontae Port Láirge SEA Statement An Environmental Report was prepared by Waterford County Council on the potential significant environmental impacts of the Draft County Waterford Development Plan 2011-2017. Alternatives were considered for the future growth of the county that included continuing with existing amount of zoning in the County Development Plan 2005-2011 or reducing the area of zoned land in support of objectives in the Regional Planning Guidelines, Water Framework Directive and national energy policy. The preferred strategy was a reduction in zoned land to an area of 461 ha for residential development. Publication of the South East Regional Planning Guidelines 2010-2022 and provisions of the Planning Act 2000 (as amended) has stipulated the need for alignment of the Core Strategy with the Regional Planning Guidelines population thresholds and consequently a review of the Core Strategy contained in the Draft County Development Plan will commence in 2011. The Environmental Report highlighted key environmental pressures in the county that include water quality with the need to restore surface water quality in Dungarvan Bay, and Waterford Estuary, groundwaters around the River Suir, bathing waters in Ardmore and Dunmore East, continued monitoring of public water supplies and provision of sufficient capacity in waste water treatment plants and the Seven Villages Scheme. The need to maintain water quality is key to conservation of biodiversity and water dependant habitats and species. Climate change impacts involving floodrisk and coastal erosion will also be required to be considered in future land use and development patterns in the county. The Draft County Development Plan 2011-2017 and Environmental Report were put on public display from 23rd February 2010 until 4th May 2010. Submissions on the Environmental Report were received from the Office of Public Works (OPW), Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DoEHLG) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Amendments proposed to the Draft County Development Plan including amendments to existing policies and zonings and insertion of additional policies and objectives were screened for SEA. The SEA matrix did not any identify any significant negative impacts arising from the amended or additional policies contained in the Draft County Development Plan. Material Amendments and the Environmental Report including SEA screening matrix were put on display from the 27th October to the 24th of November 2010. Submissions were received from the Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DoEHLG) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Assessment of the policies and objectives in the Draft County Development Plan indicated that, in the main, the policies and objectives would not pose a significant ii adverse impact on the environment. Positive impacts will be realised through policies for protection of wetlands as sites of local biodiversity interest and protection of floodplains in zoned settlements. The findings of “uncertain” impacts on the range of Environmental objectives in the SEA matrix will be determined at a lower level of environmental assessment largely through EIA and AA at the project level. These assessments will involve application of Appropriate Assessment, landscape appraisal, archaeological and architectural heritage appraisal and flood risk assessment to accurately determine the impacts under the range of environmental headings. The finding of uncertain impacts on Natura 2000 sites through the Appropriate Assessment process were addressed through the incorporation of amendments to Draft Plan policies and zonings as recommended in Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 of the AA report. This included exclusion of a tourism zoning proposed for an area of land at Bunmahon within the boundary of the Mid-Waterford Coast SPA. Integration of environmental considerations into the final Plan is indicated in Table 1. below detailing the relevant Plan section and policy addressing key Environmental Topics detailed in the Environmental Report.

Integration of environmental issues in County Development Plan policies Monitoring of any significant environmental effects arising from the County Development Plan 2011-2-17 will be carried out by Waterford County Council at the mid-term implementation review post adoption of the Plan. Data sources that will be used include, NPWS Article 17 Conservation Assessment Reports, EPA and local authority water quality data, OPW flood reports and EPA data on carbon emissions.

Tipperary, Commandant Vlll Battalion, 3rd Tipperary Brigade. 1 was a youth of 17 years of age when the Insurrection took place in Easter Week of 1916. I had just finished my school-going days and had commenced to assist my father in his hardware business in my native town of Carrick-on-Suir. There was then no unit of the Irish Volunteers in Carrick-on-Suir.. There were, however, in the town a. few nationally minded people, such as Dr. Murphy, Maurice Hickey and some members of the Dowley families, who had broken away from the Redmond ite Party and the Irish National Volunteers when the split took place in that body a few years before, but, as far as I am no effort was made to establish an aware, Irish Volun6eer company. On the other hand, Carrick-on-Suir held amongst the towns of Ireland the unenviable distinction of, in proportion to its population, giving the second highest percentage of recruits to the British Army.

The AA Screening Report details the conservation objectives for the range of Natura 2000 sites in County Waterford to identify sites that may have been impacted by policies/objectives in the Draft County Development Plan 2011-2017. A review of each of the policies, objectives and zonings contained in the Draft County Development Plan was undertaken and these were screened for their potential impacts on the Natura 2000 network in the county. Amendments were made to Draft Development Plan policies and objectives to ensure any plans or projects arising from the Plan and that may impact on Natura 2000 sites within the county will be subject to an appropriate assessment in compliance with Article 6 of the Habitats Directive. The Draft County Development Plan and AA Screening Report were made available for public consultation from 23rd February 2010 until 4th May 2010. One submission on the AA Screening Report was received from the Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DoEHLG).

Waterford SURVEY OF PRE-1923 COUNTY WATERFORD INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE 1. INTRODUCTION Waterford County Council, supported by the Heritage Council, commissioned Dublin Civic Trust in July 2007 to compile an inventory of the extant pre-1923 industrial heritage structures within Waterford County. This inventory excludes Waterford City from the perimeters of study, as it is not within the jurisdiction of Waterford County Council. This survey comes from a specific objective in the Waterford County Heritage Plan 2006 – 2011, Section 1.1.17 which requests “…a database (sic) the industrial and engineering heritage of County Waterford”. The aim of the report, as discussed with Waterford County Council, is not only to record an inventory of industrial archaeological heritage but to contextualise its significance. It was also anticipated that recommendations be made as to the future re-use of such heritage assets and any unexplored areas be highlighted. Mary Teehan buildings archaeologist, and Ronan Olwill conservation planner, for Dublin Civic Trust, Nicki Matthews conservation architect and Daniel Noonan consultant archaeologist were the project team.

Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Ph.D. School of Humanities College of Arts University of Glasgow August 2014 Abstract Much concerning the disease termed leprosy is accepted as received knowledge, without thought to time and place, but there were many differences in how leprosy sufferers were treated across regions and eras, and so diversity should be regarded as normal. This thesis will examine what was meant by the term leprosy during primarily the medieval period between the sixth and fifteenth centuries in Ireland in order to see if this equates with the disease called Hansen’s Disease in the twenty-first century.
