Model 2 represents the Tullow AFA and encompasses the River Slaney upstream and downstream of its extent, plus associated tributaries. Modelled tributaries include the Derreen River and one of its tributaries (Coppenagh stream); and two urban tributaries of the Slaney (Tullowphelim and Mount Wolseley streams) that flow through Tullow AFA. Model 1 (Baltinglass) is located upstream of Model 2 (Tullow). Model 2 (Tullow) then drains into Model 3 (Bunclody), all of which are located on the River Slaney. The total contributing area at the downstream limit of the model is 564 km2. The Derreen River catchment 2 area is 236 km , accounting for just over 40% of the overall model. Rathvilly gauging station (Stn no. 12013) is located near the upstream limit of the model (refer to Section 4.9.2(1)). There are 28 years of available data and it has a B classification under FSU (refer to Section 4.9.5). Rainfall runoff modeling was conducted at this station during hydrological analysis (refer to HA 11, 12, 13 Hydrology Report (IBE0601 Rp0012_F02 for details) to increase the statistical robustness of the index flow. This station was subsequently used as a pivotal site for adjusting initial Qmed estimations (based on catchment descriptors and FSU WP 2.3) at HEPs along the River Slaney. Full details of hydrology estimation are in the HA 11, 12, 13 Hydrology Report. The Tullow Flood Relief Scheme was completed in 2011. It consisted of a combination of river widening and deepening, flood walls and embankments. The River Slaney is a MPW for the modelled upstream and downstream reaches. A 4 km reach of the Slaney flowing through the Tullow AFA, together with the tributary watercourses included in the AFA, have been modelled as 1D-2D using the MIKE suite of software. The 1D-2D extent has been extended to the confluence of the River Slaney and Derreen (12_531_8_RPS). Outside of this area, the River Slaney is modelled as 1D only.

The Slaney catchment contains one Upstream Limit HEP, one Downstream Limit HEP, five Intermediate HEPs and five Tributary HEPs. The Derreen catchment contains one Upstream Limit HEP, two Trib HEPs and discharges into the Slaney catchment at 12_531_8_RPS. Tullowphelim and Mount Wolseley streams contain one Upstream Limit HEP each and both discharge into the Slaney (at 12_1830_1 and 12_1707_2_RPS respectively). Coppenagh Stream contains one Upstream Limit HEP and it discharges into the Derreen at 12_535_7_RPS. There are three gauging stations located along the River Slaney catchment but flow data is available for only one of the stations, the aforementioned Rathvilly Station (12013 – EPA), which represents also the upstream HEP of the catchment (12013_RPS). Tullow Town Bridge (12005) and Tullowbeg (12006) have no flow or water level data available and so were used as Intermediate HEPs in anchoring the model to hydrological estimates as detailed in Appendix A.3.

For example, when I was psepnrj.ng my second paper on. She Galwey Fishery (No, 6 on list below) I made inquiries at the National Museum, Dublin as to what Irish fishing spears were preserved in that museum. I was surprised to learn that very little material of this kind was available, although I knew that '?loardsw of salrnon spears, seized by the Boards of Fishery Consesvato~-s, were kept in various parts of Iruln~ld. Fortunately 1 was able to have these, and other spears, mainly for eels, collected up and deposited in the Wational Museum, which can now claim to have a good representative collection of Irish traditional fishing spears for salmon and eels. My paper on Irish fishing spears (No, 29 on list below) resulted from the collection of the fishing spears referred Lo above. Articles in newspapers and other popular journals have generally been omitted from the list below, because they were usually based on information given in contribations to the journals etc.

  • Salmon and Sea Trout Angling Regulations 2021
    Wild Salmon and Sea Trout Tagging Scheme The Wild Salmon and Sea Trout Tagging Scheme regulates salmon and sea trout fishing in Ireland and is administered by Inland Fisheries Ireland. Please note that the regulations and bye-laws are subject to change. Contact your local Inland Fisheries Ireland office for information on individual rivers. All salmon rod licence holders must affix a gill tag to all retained salmon (any size), or sea trout (over 40cm) once the fish has been killed. 1. BAG LIMITS There is a National angling bag limit of 10 salmon (any size) or sea trout (over 40 cm) on rivers where you may catch and retain salmon (Table 1). The bag limits are subject to any quota allocated to a river and its tributaries. Subject to the maximum annual bag limit of ten fish an angler may take: • Daily Bag Limit - 1st January to 11th May - A total of one salmon (any size) or sea trout (over 40cm) per day (three fish in total may be retained for this period). • Daily Bag Limit - 12th May to 31st August - Three salmon (any size) or sea trout (over 40cm) per day (except where a salmon rod (one-day) ordinary licence is held, 1 fish). • Daily Bag Limit - 1st September to the close of the season: One salmon (any size) or sea trout (over 40cm) per day. • There is a daily bag limit of three sea trout (under 40cm) per angler per day. • Please note that it is an offence to kill any sea trout in the following waters; - Galway, Connemara or Ballinakill Fisheries Districts including at sea from Hags Head in County Clare to Clew Bay (and in any waters flowing into Clew Bay) in the Bangor Fishery District south of a line drawn due east and west through Achill Head, - Kerry District, in that part of the sea east of a line between Bolus Head and Lambs Head and all the waters discharging into it (i.e.

  • A3. Baltinglass Town Plan 2016
    Wicklow County Development Plan 2016‐2022 3. Baltinglass Town Plan 3.1 Context Baltinglass is located on the western fringes of the Wicklow Mountains, in west Co. Wicklow, near the Kildare and Carlow borders. The town is located in the Wicklow rural hinterland, approximately 30km south of Blessington, on the N81 Dublin-Tullow Road. It is also traversed by the R747, from Arklow to Kildare. The town is located on the River Slaney, a protected Natura 2000 site and is located just west of the Baltinglass Hills, a protected archaeological landscape. Historically the settlement developed around the market square, with development spreading out to the east and west along the R747, forming the existing town centre. The town centre is focussed mainly east of the River Slaney, along Main Street and ending at Market and Weavers Square. West of the river, the town centre is focused around the N81/R747 crossroads, along Edward Street, Mill Street and Belan Street. The majority of residential estates and community and employment developments have been developed along the R747, with residential development west of the town mainly in the form of ribbon development along the main road network. A particularly important landmark is Quinn’s Mart Site on Mill Street to the north of the town. The town has grown considerably in recent years to a 2011 population of 1,786 people. Although employment can be sourced locally from activities pertaining to farming, industry and the services sector, a considerable proportion of people commute to Dublin for employment. The town serves the local town and hinterland population, providing mainly local convenience based shopping and service opportunities.

  • River Slaney Valley SAC (Site Code 781) Conservation Objectives Supporting Document- Woodland Habitats
    NPWS River Slaney Valley SAC (site code 781) Conservation objectives supporting document- woodland habitats Version 1 August 2011 Introduction The Slaney river system rises in the Wicklow Mountains and Mount Leinster range and flows predominantly through undulating lowlands apart from a short section which cuts through the mountains. The underlying bedrock of granite, slates and shales produce relatively well-drained soils favourable for cultivation and the catchment includes a considerable amount of arable land as well as pasture. In the valley bottom drainage is locally impeded and subject to flooding. There is relatively little woodland within the SAC, being mostly confined to steeper slopes and localised areas of impeded drainage. In the upper reaches above Tullow the rivers are tree-lined with mostly small patches of woodland. Between Tullow and Bunclody the river is incised and the steep valley sides are wooded. South of Bunclody the valley broadens out and the valley floor is intensively cultivated or under pasture, although there is some woodland on the tributary valley sides. South of Enniscorthy, where the river is subject to tidal influence, there are scattered stands of low willow and alder scrub associated with reed beds. Woodland types This SAC has been selected for two native woodland types listed in Annex I of the Habitats Directive: 91A0 Old sessile oak woods with Ilex and Blechnum in the British Isles 91EO Alluvial forests with Alnus glutinosa and Fraxinus excelsior (Alno- Padion, Alnion incanae, Salicion albae) Native ash (Fraxinus excelsior) woodland also occurs, as do stands of mixed deciduous woodland and a few small conifer plantations.
