5 Identification of Potential Water-Based Receptors Final Report 1: Baseline Characterisation of Groundwater, Surface Water and Aquatic Ecosystems 5 Identification of Potential Water-based Receptors Potential receptors of UGEE-related contamination are surface water and groundwater bodies, water supplies (abstractions) that source water from surface and groundwater resources, registered protected areas, and groundwater dependent terrestrial ecosystems (GWDTEs). This section describes potential water-based receptors that are present in each of the case study areas, which depend on the surface and groundwater resources described in Sections 2 and 3. Surface and groundwater resources are inherently linked. Groundwater provides baseflow and supporting conditions for streams, lakes and GWDTEs which is especially important during prolonged dry weather conditions. Daly and Craig (2009) estimated that more than 30% of the annual average stream flow in Ireland can be derived from groundwater. In low-flow periods, this contribution can be significantly greater, exceeding 90% in certain aquifer types. With regard to groundwater resources as receptors, there is no fixed depth which can be assigned to define when groundwater ceases to be a usable water resource. This issue is relevant in a UGEE context because of the risks of impact from hydraulic fracturing on groundwater quality. The UK Technical Advisory Group (UKTAG) on the Water Framework Directive (WFD) defined 400 m below ground level as a depth below which it may become increasingly difficult to obtain: a) adequate quantities of groundwater for supply purposes; and b) water that is of a quality that can be used for potable supply purposes. The 400 m depth limit was specified in context of WFD groundwater body delination purposes (to the EC), and should not be interpreted or regarded as a fixed limit for usable groundwater resources in either of the case study areas. There are indications from past gas exploration wells drilled in the NCB that formation waters of variable salinity are present in bedrock formations at depth (see Section 2.11). This indicates that groundwater quality deteriorates with depth and that beyond a certain depth, the resource value of groundwater, e.g. as a usable source of water supply, is lost. Depths, configurations and circumstances of such water quality deterioration remain poorly understood, but would be expected to vary in three dimensions as a function of geological structures, stratigraphy and heterogeneity, degree of bedrock fracturing, and possible hydrogeological connections with shallow water resources. 5.1 Water Supply Abstractions Both surface and groundwater resources are used for water supply purposes. As part of the UGEE JRP, relevant public bodies and private entities involved in public and private regulated supplies were contacted for information on existing sources of abstraction in both case study areas. As well, ground-truthing surveys were carried out to: Verify the information obtained; Improve the overall understanding of water users and related abstractions pressures; and Assist in the determination and specification of which water supplies would be suitable for potential baseline monitoring purposes. Details of the ground-truthing survey are presented in Appendix G and findings are summarised below. The survey followed a three-tiered approach. Priority was given to inspect and document the suitability of public water supplies and group water schemes for sampling purposes. Second priority was assigned to industrial or commercially active supplies which are monitored as ‘regulated supplies’ by local authorities. Third priority was afforded to “other” private wells that supply farms, other facilities (which do not require monitoring or reporting by public bodies) and single houses. 138 Final Report 1: Baseline Characterisation of Groundwater, Surface Water and Aquatic Ecosystems Time constraints did not allow for all wells to be identified, but a substantially updated database of abstractions and understanding of groundwater use resulted from the survey work in both study areas. 5.1.1 Water supplies (abstractions) from groundwater Verified groundwater abstractions from wells and springs are shown in Figure 5.1 and Figure 5.2 for the NCB and in Figure 5.3 for the CB. In the NCB, groundwater is sourced for public supply, private regulated supply (e.g. group water schemes) and ‘other’ private supply (e.g. single homes, farms, industrial and commercial facilities). Public supply wells pump water from several of the rock formations of the Tyrone Group, whereas spring-sourced supplies are mostly linked with formations of the Leitrim Group. General information on wells and springs in the NCB are summarised in Table 5.1 and Table 5.2. Only public and private regulated supplies are included in the tables, but other private supplies that were identified from the ground-truthing survey are also shown on the maps (green symbols). In the CB, there are no groundwater-based public or group water schemes within the UGEE licence boundary. The Lissacasey GWS is located immediately to the east of the licence boundary and elsewhere in the study area groundwater is an important source of water for industry/commerce, farms and single houses. An overall summary of verified groundwater abstractions in the two study areas is presented in Table 5.3 and Figure 5.4. Regarding private wells serving single homes and farms, not all homes or farms could be visited during the ground-truthing survey, and thus not all potential abstractions could be verified. For this reason, the total number of abstractions in the lower abstraction categories (<50 m3/d) is to be under-represented in Figure 5.4. Additionally, the data from the CB is believed to under-represent private regulated supplies as there were a small number of commercial enterprises which could not be verified following the initial inquiries that were made. The largest groundwater abstraction in either of the two study areas is the Rockingham PWS which abstracts 2760 m3/d on average. It is located marginally outside the UGEE licence area, but abstracts water from a limestone aquifer that is linked to the UGEE licence area in the NCB. 139 Final Report 1: Baseline Characterisation of Groundwater, Surface Water and Aquatic Ecosystems Figure 5.1.

  • Exploring the Musical Traditions of Co. Leitrim & Co. Fermanagh
    Exploring the Musical Traditions of County Leitrim & County Fermanagh In May 2020 Irish Arts Foundation launched a pioneering research programme. It centred on specific regional playing styles and influences within Irish traditional music originating from rural communities around the border counties of: Leitrim in the Republic of Ireland and Fermanagh in Northern Ireland. Themes 1. Regional identity. 2. Local musical traditions in Co. Leitrim and Fermanagh. 3. The families and individuals who kept the music alive, and their legacy today. Regional Identity In the time of the horse and cart - the ‘candle to bed’ age - each village, town and county had its own tunes and dances; a musical accent and dialect. This was due to relative rural isolation. So despite the close proximity of Co. Leitrim and Fermanagh, distinct regional identities - musical, religious and political – formed. When talking about regional identity and style there will always be generalisations; tunes do not carry passports and music has never been constrained by borders. Despite this, we will look at what can be widely termed, a Leitrim and a Fermanagh musical tradition. County Leitrim Leitrim is in the province of Connacht and part of the Border Region. Its largest town is Carrick-on-Shannon with a population of 3,134. Although one of Ireland’s smallest counties, Leitrim has a distinct musical tradition of flute and fiddle music. We will look at some of the individuals and groups who have shaped the Leitrim style of traditional music. Leitrim Flute Music “Co. Leitrim has preserved a distinct musical identity and tradition based largely on the flute.

    Measuring What Matters A pilot project carried out by Rural Community Network (NI) & Rose Regeneration Key Findings (See Page P10) 1. Every project analysed is delivering a positive social return. 2. Every project delivered several valuable and common outcomes. 3. Every project plans to use their SROI assessment as a way of demonstrating impact to current and potential new funders. 4. Projects value the importance of partnership working & collaboration to achieve results. 5. Measuring Social Value assists groups in better planning and delivery of projects. 6. Outcomes are as important as targets when planning project delivery. 7. Using this approach, is a user friendly, efficient way for small community/voluntary groups to evidence and measure their impact. 8. Funding bodies should encourage funded groups to adopt this model of measuring Social Value. 9. Groups that measure their impact get validation in the work that they carry out. 1 Table of Contents 1.
