NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY This Environmental Impact Assessment Report (E.I.A.R.) has been prepared by C.L.W. Environmental Planners Ltd. on behalf of Mr. Anthony McCluskey, Coskemduff, Cootehill, Co. Cavan in respect of the operation of 2 No. poultry houses together with all ancillary structures and associated site works, on an existing site. The E.I.A.R. has been prepared by Mr. Paraic Fay B.Agr.Sc and Mr. Oliver Leddy B.Agr.Sc. of C.L.W. Environmental Planners Ltd. with the assistance of persons and bodies referred to hereafter. The farm will operate under Licence by the Environmental Protection Agency, and this E.I.A.R. has been completed in respect of this licence application. The operation is to be completed an existing site at Coskemduff, Cootehill, Co. Cavan. The E.I.A.R. has been prepared after an Environmental Impact Assessment (E.I.A.) of the operation carried out by C.L.W. Environmental Planners Ltd., in accordance with the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended), Planning & Development Regulations 2001-2015 and the Protection of Environment Act 2003. The existing farm operated by the applicant has operated as a poultry farm for a long number of years. The operation is located on a site previously approved by Cavan Co. Co. and will access on to the adjoining public road via the existing entrance. The operation of 2 No. Broiler rearing houses is, and will be, carried on within the existing site. The capacity of the farm is/will be 50,000 birds exceeding the threshold required for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Assessment Report as per 5.1. 600 of 2001 (Planning and Development Regulations 2001), Schedule 5 Part 2 1 (e) (i) as follows; "Installations for intensive rearing of poultry not included in Part 1 of this Schedule which would have more than 40,000 places for poultry." For inspection purposes only. As all manure is to be moved off-siteConsent of by copyright a registered owner required contractorfor any other use. in line with the requirements of 5.1. 31 of 2014. The additional structures and site works required as part of the operation will include meal storage silo(s), soiled water tank, and gas storage tanks etc. The operation is located in the townland of Coskemduff, Cootehill. The operation of the operation is integrated, in so far as is possible, with the operation of the existing farming activities, and provides for a sustainable diversification of activities on the farm. The capacity of this farm is and will be in excess of that for which a Licence from the Environmental Protection Agency (E.P.A.) is required. This E.I.A.R. will be submitted to the EPA as part of the Licence application process. The application site lies within the North-Western River Basin District, the Erne Hydrometric Area and Catchment and the Annalee sub-catchment. There are no mapped watercourses within or immediately adjacent to the application site. C.L.W. Environmental Planners Ltd. November 2017 Page 1 EPA Export 28-06-2018:03:59:52 Mr. Anthony McCluskey Environmental Impact Assessment Report (E.I.A.R.} The closest relevant watercourse (i.e., within the same sub-catchment) is Coskemduff Lough, which is 497m south-west of the application site. This is fed by the Kilclogha Stream, which exists the lake and flows in a northerly direction until its confluence with the Madabawn Stream, where if flows briefly until it reaches the Annalee River, approximately 1.2km north­ west of the application site. The EPA have defined the ecological status of the Kilclogha and Madabawn Streams and the Annalee River at points close to the application site as good. Under the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, this is satisfactory and it is important that this status is maintained. The site in question is located in a rural area within the townland of Coskemduff. The site is c. 0.6 hectares in area and it is accessed via a local third class road. It is 7.5 km south east of Cootehill and 7.5 km north west of Shercock. The activity on the farm is, and will be, a poultry farming activity appropriate to the area and consistent with the development plan for Co. Cavan. The site is well serviced by the current road infrastructure and is accessed by a local road which subsequently connects with the Regional Route, the R192 Cootehill - Shercock Road, c. 3 km from the farm. The poultry houses are located c. 275 m from the adjoining local road. The finished floor level is in keeping with existing ground levels minimising potential visual impact. The location of the operation, screened by the existing land topography and the existing hedgerows together with the existing external finishes and existing landscaping will mean that the development is well integrated into the existing landscape. The site is located c. 22 Km from the closest Natura 2000 site - Lough Oughter and associated Loughs SAC. For inspection purposes only. Consent of copyright owner required for any other use. Hazardous waste generated at this site is / will be in the form of spent fluorescent lighting tubes. The annual quantity of each of this class of waste generated on the site is and will be mimimal. It is proposed to accumulate the used fluorescent tubes in a specialised storage area in the site pending periodic disposal at the Cavan Co. Co. civic amenity centre. Alternatively these tubes may be returned to the supplier. The existing poultry houses are similar in design principles to other broiler houses constructed throughout this part of Co. Cavan. The type of house is a simple closed building of concrete and timber panel construction, thermally insulated with a forced computer controlled ventilation system and artificial lighting. Birds are housed on a solid floor, with litter (wood shavings/chopped straw) spread over the entire floor area. Automated feeding and drinking systems are utilised and are in line with Best Available Techniques (BAT) requirements. A button nipple drinking system is used as this is the most efficient type of drinking system and will ensure that the manure/litter remains as dry as possible.

  • Recent Settlement Change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS
    Recent settlement change in County Cavan, 1981-2011 RUTH MCMANUS Introduction Cavan is considered by many to be part of Ireland’s rural heartland, a county of small towns and scenic countryside. This landlocked county of lakes and rolling hills has a timeless image, exploited in its tourism promotion as ‘the Lakeland county’ and a haven for fishing, boating and rural pursuits. However, the period from 1981 to 2011 has seen the emergence of a changed landscape, which challenges these assumptions. This chapter considers the changing nature of the Cavan landscape over the past thirty years, focusing on how this change reflects new patterns of housing, employment and population structure. Cavan before the economic boom At 53,855 in 1981, the population of County Cavan had increased slightly from the all-time low recorded a decade previously. However, the issue of depopulation was an ever-present one. The century had seen a consistent drop in population from a high of 91,173 in 1911. Indeed, Figure X.1 and Table X.1, which shows the population of the county from the first census in 1841, reveals a consistent fall in numbers over more than 130 years. Little wonder, then, that reports of population growth during the boom years were greeted with approval by local newspaper, The Anglo Celt.1 Figure X.1: Population of County Cavan at each census from 1841 to 2011 300000 250000 200000 150000 Total population 100000 50000 0 1926 2011 1851 1861 1871 1881 1891 1901 1911 1936 1946 1951 1956 1961 1966 1971 1979 1981 1986 1991 1996 2002 2006 1841 1 Table X.1: Population of County Cavan at selected census years, 1841-1981 1841 243158 1851 174071 1861 153906 1871 140735 1881 129476 1891 111917 1901 97541 1911 91173 1926 82452 1936 76670 1946 70355 1951 66377 1961 56594 1971 52618 1981 53855 Just 12.7% of the population in 1981 was living in the urban areas of County Cavan.

  • List of Irish Mountain Passes
    List of Irish Mountain Passes The following document is a list of mountain passes and similar features extracted from the gazetteer, Irish Landscape Names. Please consult the full document (also available at Mountain Views) for the abbreviations of sources, symbols and conventions adopted. The list was compiled during the month of June 2020 and comprises more than eighty Irish passes and cols, including both vehicular passes and pedestrian saddles. There were thousands of features that could have been included, but since I intended this as part of a gazetteer of place-names in the Irish mountain landscape, I had to be selective and decided to focus on those which have names and are of importance to walkers, either as a starting point for a route or as a way of accessing summits. Some heights are approximate due to the lack of a spot height on maps. Certain features have not been categorised as passes, such as Barnesmore Gap, Doo Lough Pass and Ballaghaneary because they did not fulfil geographical criteria for various reasons which are explained under the entry for the individual feature. They have, however, been included in the list as important features in the mountain landscape.

    Mainly Ulster families – “B” series – Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Ulster ‘SERIES B’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution. There are further large card indexes of Miscellaneous notes on families which are not at present being digitised, but which often deal with the same families treated below.

  • Rates and Valuation
    Cavan County Council Rates Archives service Cavan County Council Rates Until recent times, the main income of local authorities was derived from rates charged on property. Before the introduction of the Local Government (Ireland) Act, 1898, the principal local taxes were the county cess (collected by the Grand Jury), the poor rate (collected by the Boards of Guardians) and various rates paid in towns including water and improvement rates. After the 1898 Act, the rates were amalgamated into the poor rate for the county. In municipal areas there were additional rates made for particular which were consolidated into one municipal rate during the period 1930-46. County councils, county boroughs and borough corporations and urban district councils are rating authorities, but since 1946 town commissioners are not. The main archives created by the rating activities of local authorities are rate books. These volumes record the names and addresses of ratepayers and the amounts paid. They are arranged by electoral division and townland. The amount due in rates is based on the valuation of the property as set out in the valuation list. The rate books were written annually with the amounts due by each ratepayer and were open for public inspection for a period.
