  • Chapter 4: Human Beings
    Lower Lee (Cork City) Drainage Scheme in association with Chapter 4: Human Beings Environmental Impact Statement Lower Lee (Cork City) Drainage Scheme in association with 4. HUMAN BEINGS 4.1 Introduction This section of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) describes the potential impacts of the proposed development on human beings and has been completed in accordance with the guidance set out by the Environmental Protection Agency in ‘Guidelines on Information to be contained in Environmental Impact Statements’ (EPA, 2000). One of the principle concerns in the development process is that people, as individuals or communities, should experience no diminution in their quality of life from the direct or indirect impacts arising from the construction and operation of a development. Ultimately, all the impacts of a development impinge on human beings, directly and indirectly, positively and negatively. The key issues examined in this section of the EIS include population, employment and economic activity, land-use, residential amenity, community facilities and services, tourism, and health and safety. Reference is also made, in this chapter, to nuisance impacts on human beings that are dealt with in other sections of this EIS such as flooding from Chapter 7 - Hydrology and Hydrogeology; dust and noise from Chapter 8 - Air and Climate; and traffic from Chapter 11 - Material Assets. 4.2 Receiving Environment 4.2.1 Methodology The following sources of information and literature pertinent to the area were used in the preparation of this section: .

  • Down the Lee and up the Sabhrann
    CORKUMNAVIGATION A Guide to circumnavigating Cork City 2nd Edition, Published March 2016 Addendum: Commentary written by the late Cian Ó Sé CORKUMNAVIGATION: Down the Lee and up the Sabhrann It was said that the city of Cork was built on a series of 13 islands. The channels between all these islands have all been arched over or filled-in in various ways over the centuries, so that only two remain open : the river Lee (North Channel) on the north, and the river Sabhrann (South Channel) on the south. It is possible to navigate both those rivers, but only in very small boats or kajaks, and even then, one has to keep a close eye on the tide. It has to be low enough to go under all the bridges, and yet high enough to clear all the weirs. The main river derives its name from the Irish "Laoi", a word meaning torrent or flood. We have been recently reminded as to how appropriate the word is. Sudden flooding has always been a particular characteristic of the Lee, or "Flood River". It was only controlled in recent generations by the construction of the hydro-electric dams at Scórnach (lit. "the canyon") and Carraig a'Droichid. However, flood-control is an art - which seems to have been lost with the passing years ! Man has been trying to control the river for centuries. One of the earliest references to works on the river comes from the Popes Decretal (taxation-list) of 1199. In it is mentioned the "Clochán". This is derived from "cloch" meaning stone, so this refers to the stone-structure or weir at the Waterworks I, the highest point to which tides go (at present.
