  • Chapter 4: Biodiversity
    EIAR Kilcumber Bridge 110kV substation Chapter 4: Biodiversity 4 BIODIVERSITY 4.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the ecology in the environs of the proposed substation site and grid connection route and assesses the potential effects of the project on identified ecological receptors. A detailed description of the project assessed in this chapter is given in Chapter 2 Project Description. A Natura 2000 Appropriate Assessment Natura Impact Statement (NIS) report has also been prepared and completed for the project. This Ecological Impact Assessment was carried out with regard to the following publications: • Guidelines on the Information to be Contained in Environmental Impact Assessment Reports (EPA, 2017); • Guidelines for Ecological Impact Assessment in the UK and Ireland - Terrestrial, Freshwater, Coastal and Marine (IEEM, 2019); • Guidelines for Assessment of Ecological Impacts of National Road Schemes (NRA, 2009). 4.1.1 Legislation and Policy Context The most important legislation underpinning biodiversity and nature conservation in Ireland are the: • Wildlife Acts 1976 to 2012; • European Communities (Birds and Natural Habitats) Regulations 2011-2015 (transposes EU Birds Directive 2009/147/EC and EU Habitats Directive 2009/147/EC, 92/43/EC); • European Communities (Quality of Salmonid Waters) regulations (S.I. No. 84 of 1988); • Freshwater Fish (78/659/EEC) The Wildlife Act, 1976, is the principal national legislation providing for the protection of wildlife and the control of some activities that may adversely affect wildlife. The aims of the Wildlife Act, 1976, are to provide for the protection and conservation of wild fauna and flora, to conserve a representative sample of important ecosystems, to provide for the development and protection of game resources and to regulate their exploitation, and to provide the services necessary to accomplish such aims.

  • Appendix A: River Basin District Maps the Numbers on the Maps Correspond to the WWDL Registration Number of Each Agglomeration E.G
    Appendix A: River Basin District Maps The numbers on the maps correspond to the WWDL Registration Number of each agglomeration e.g. 34 is D0034-01. The full list of numbers is located at the end of Appendix A. To view a larger version of each map go to www.epa.ie/downloads/pubs A pass (green circle) indicates that the agglomeration complied with effluent quality and monitoring frequency standards. Agglomerations that failed due to effluent quality are divided into those that failed with <50% of samples taken over the limits for any parameter in the Directive (amber circle) and those plants with ≥50% of samples over the limits for at least one parameter (red triangle). This separates plants with occasional failures from those with persistent effluent quality failures throughout the year. Agglomerations that failed due to lack of secondary treatment in place (as per the Directive) are also shown (red square). A fail due to inadequate sample numbers taken is shown as a red circle. Agglomerations with no treatment (black square), preliminary treatment (black triangle) and primary treatment (black circle) are also indicated on each RBD map.
