CONCLUSION 19 Executive Summary 1.0 Introduction This report provides a detailed assessment of the impact that the ‘Pilot’ Rural Renewal Tax Scheme for the Upper Shannon Area has had on lands adjacent to the River Shannon and hence the heritage of the River Shannon Waterway Corridor; a ‘waterway corridor area’ of international significance. The assessment focuses on the resulting impact of increased development pressures on the heritage within the River Shannon Corridor and the implications for the planning and development system within this area. Four detailed Case studies are provided (two case studies each for Counties Leitrim and Roscommon), in order to illustrate the long-term impact that the tax incentive scheme will have on the River Shannon Corridor Area. 2.0 Overview of the ‘Pilot’ Rural Renewal Scheme for the Upper Shannon Area 1998-2004 The Pilot Rural Renewal Tax Incentive Scheme was introduced by the government in 1998, ‘to help stimulate the development of the Upper Shannon Region’. The Heritage Council highlighted at the time of the introduction of the pilot scheme in 1998, that the programme was introduced without a ‘Baseline Audit’ to inform the level and scale of development to be supported through the scheme and to ensure an effective and efficient monitoring and evaluation system.

  • Understanding Water Levels on the River Shannon
    Understanding water levels on the River Shannon Shannon Catchment-based Flood Risk Assessment and Management (CFRAM) Study Introduction In line with government policy, the Office of Public Works (OPW ) is in the proces s o f un der ta king t he Shannon Catchment-based Flood Risk Assessment a nd Ma nagemen t (CF RAM ) S tudy to g ive us a clear and comprehensive picture of flood risk in the Shannon a rea and set out how the risk can be managed effectively and sustainably. Based on technical work and information from stakeh olde rs and lo cal comm unitie s, we will gener ate detailed flood maps (due by the end of 2013) showing wh er e curr en t and f utu re floo ding is likely to occur. By 2015, we will produce Flood Risk Management P lans ( FRM Ps ) wh ich will set out specif ic programmes of measures and how the OPW, local aut horities and oth er sta keholders, inc luding the ESB and Waterways Ireland, should work together to address flood risks in the catchment. In the meantime, a lot of work needs to be done to help us fully understand the risks of flooding and ensure that the flood maps and subsequent plans are properly informed, accurate and reliable. An important part of this early work is to research and understand the current operations of structures (e.g. weirs and sluices) along the River Shannon, who has responsibilities for water levels and how this impacts flood risk management.

The River Shannon Level Operation Review report is the output from a desk-based technical assessment that was carried out during 2011 which aimed to: l Analyse existing data and available information on water levels and flows, and operating regulations for the control structures and dams at key locations along the River Shannon.
