This report and accompanying presentation was considered by the Council at the Monthly Meeting held on 7th November 2011 (Report 338/2011 is appended as Appendix 1 of this report). It was agreed that Emergency Motions 1, 2, 3 (Amended), 8 and Motion 64 from the North Central Area Committee be referred to the Environment and Engineering Strategic Policy Committee for further consideration at a meeting of the SPC scheduled for 15th December 2011. This report is intended to : Brief the SPC on progress since Meeting of City Council on 7th November 2011. Brief SPC on meetings with OPW in relation to Capital Funding for Flood Relief Schemes Address motions referred by Council to SPC. Introduction. This report is to be read as a follow up report to the report No. 338/2011 made to the City Council Meeting on 7th November 2011 covering Dublin Flood Risk and interim report on extreme pluvial flooding event affecting the East Coast and Dublin City on 24th October 2011. The cause of the flooding on 23rd and 24th November was extreme pluvial rainfall which exceeded the capacity of the Drainage system and in turn gave rise to fluvial flooding, which was particularly evident in the River Dodder and in the smaller Dublin Rivers especially in the Camac, Poddle, Wad, Bradog, Zoo Stream. -
2003 Tolka Valley Park Mammals
THE MAMMAL FAUNA OF THE TOLKA VALLEY PARK AN INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF THE RESIDENT FAUNA For Fingal County Council, Parks Department Daubenton’s bat in bridge over the River Tolka. (c) Brian Keeley 2003 Brian Keeley B.Sc. Hons. in Zool. Mammalogist November 2003 INTRODUCTION It is acknowledged by all environmentalists and ecologists that in order to ensure that native fauna may flourish, it is essential that there is a mechanism for continuity provided for interchange between naturally accessible parts of the species’ range. For many mammals, this means of continuity is provided in two main ways: vegetation corridors (hedgerow, trees, scrub) and waterways. Tolka Valley Park provides a link between suburban and rural areas of Fingal. The river itself creates a natural channel for the movement of aquatic or semi-aquatic mammals. The riverside vegetation and the remnant greenery that has survived on the flood plain of the river serves as the vegetation corridor, dwelling and resting place for mammals necessary to sustain and allow the movement of these survivors of increasing urbanisation. To appreciate what the resident fauna of this relatively new park is, it is necessary to examine the site in a number of ways. Different mammals are located by the use of different techniques. This current assessment looked at the bat fauna and the non-volant fauna by different means. Bats were sought during the summer period by means of a bat detector survey. Non-volant mammals were investigated by a walk-through of the Park to identify their tracks etc. rather than any visual determinations. -
