The Portlaoise model (Model 6) includes the Triogue River and a number of its tributaries as listed in Section 4.12.1(4). Portlaoise is the most upstream model of the Triogue River with the Mountmellick model located immediately downstream. The Triogue flows through Portlaoise and to the east of Mountmellick before joining the River Barrow. Its upper reaches comprise the Cush and Foyle Rivers which rise in the northern foothills of Cullenagh Mountain. In addition to the Triogue, three unnamed urban watercourses and their tributaries flow through the AFA extent. The total contributing catchment area at the downstream end of the model is approximately 84 km2 (at HEP 14_1018_1_RPS). Portlaoise hydrometric station is located within the AFA on the River Triogue (Stn no. 14014). It is relatively new with data from 2000 and was not classified under FSU. Similarly, the gauging station at Kyleclonhobert (Stn no. 14101) on the Boghlone River is relatively new with nine years of AMAX data, and was not classified under FSU. Rainfall runoff modelling was undertaken at these stations during the hydrology analysis to augment the data and provide statistical robustness to the index flow (refer to UoM 14 Hydrology Report ibe0601Rp0011, Chapter 4.6). Both stations were used as pivotal sites in adjusting Qmed estimates (based on FSU WP 2.3 and catchment descriptors) at HEPs across the model. They were also used in to anchor the model to observed data as detailed in Appendix A.3. A rating review was conducted at Station 14014 but the outputs did not warrant a change in design Qmed as discussed in Section 4.12.3 (5). The Hydrology report (IBE0601 Rp0012) contains full details of hydrology analysis for this model. The majority of the rivers in the Portlaoise model are HPW and are being modelled as 1D-2D using the MIKE suite of software. The only exceptions to this are small stretches of the Borris and Triogue River to the north of the AFA that are MPW and are being modelled in 1D only.

The catchment contains 10no. Upstream Limit HEPs, 1no. Downstream Limit HEP, 3no. Intermediate HEPs and 10no. Tributary HEPs. There are two gauging station HEPSs (Stn nos. 14014 and 14101). The Station at Kyle (Stn no.14032) on the River Triogue has no useable flow or water level data and essentially serves as an Intermediate HEP in anchoring the model to hydrological estimates (Appendiz A.3).

It also shows the area covered by the 2D model domain. The detailed maps show the areas where there is the most significant risk of flooding. These diagrams include the surveyed cross-section locations, AFA boundary and river centreline. They also show the location of the critical structures as discussed in 4.12.3 (1) along with the location and extent of the links between the 1D and 2D models. For clarity in viewing cross-section locations, the diagrams show the full extent of the surveyed cross-sections. Note that the 1D model considers only the cross-section between the 1D-2D links.

Offaly and the Breretons of Tipperary Page 2 of 84 Author: Faye Brereton-Goodwin, Ontario, Canada I was born in Canada, daughter of Albert (Bert) Lionel Brereton and Mabel Doak. Dad’s paternal grandparents, James Westropp Brereton and Ursula Harnett (along with four children) arrived in Canada from Listowel, Ireland in 1878 after the Captain had been appointed a Dominion Commissioner of Police by Queen Victoria. Dad’s maternal grand-parents were Dan Martin of Northern Ireland and Julia Crowley identified as of the Province of Munster, Ireland. My mother’s great grandparents, both the Willis and Doak families, also immigrated to Canada from Northern Ireland. So it is little wonder that I went in search of my Irish ancestors. As my great grandfather Captain James W. Brereton kept a diary and there were family tales and newspaper clippings of Brereton and Handford Halls, I became intrigued with my Irish Brereton ancestors at an early age. While all my ancestors were Irish, to date it is the Brereton line that continues to intrigue me. They certainly were a fascinating family who travelled the world, were knighted and held positions of power.
