The Plan has been prepared on behalf of the Office of Public Works (OPW) and their partners and sets out a programme of prioritised studies, actions and works (including both structural and non-structural measures) to manage predicted flood risk in catchments within UoM 22 in the short to long-term. The purpose of the Environmental Report is to identify, evaluate and describe the likely significant effects on the environment of implementing the Flood Risk Management Plan (FRMP) for UoM 22. Once the environmental effects have been identified, then mitigation measures are developed in tandem with an effective monitoring programme to ensure that the potential environmental impacts are minimised. The Environmental Report also specifically identifies the impacts of the Plan on sites of international and national nature conservation importance within UoM 22. A “Habitats Directive Assessment” (HDA) was undertaken in tandem with the SEA process and the outcomes of this assessment are included in the overall SEA appraisal presented in this Environmental Report 1.2 Flood Risk Management Plan for Unit of Management (UoM) 22 For the purpose of delivering on the components of the National Flood Policy and on the requirements of the European Union Floods Directive, the OPW, in conjunction with local authorities and stakeholders, is conducting a number of Catchment Flood Risk Assessment and Management (CFRAM) Studies. These studies are the core activity from which medium to long-term strategies for the reduction and management of flood risk in Ireland will be achieved. The overarching objectives of the CFRAM Studies are to: ¡ Identify and map the existing and potential future flood hazard within the study area; ¡ Assess and map the existing and potential future flood risk within the study area; ¡ Identify viable structural and non-structural options and measures for the effective and sustainable management of flood risk within the study area; ¡ Prepare Flood Risk Management Plans (FRMPs) setting out recommendations to manage the existing flood risk and also the potential future flood risk which may increase due to climate change, development, and other pressures that may arise in the future. FRMPs will set out policies, strategies, measures and actions that should be pursued by the relevant bodies (including the OPW, Local Authorities and other Stakeholders), to achieve the most cost-effective and sustainable management of existing and potential future flood risk within the study area, taking account of environmental plans, objectives and legislative requirements and other statutory plans and requirements1. 1 The Floods Directive requires that Flood Risk Management Plans should take into account the particular characteristics of the areas they cover and provide for tailored solutions according to the needs and priorities of those areas, whilst promoting the achievement of environmental objectives laid down in Community legislation. 1 296235/IWE/CCX/ES011/A July 2017 P:\Cork\DESIGN\projects\296235, SWRBD CFRAM Study\Reports\Strategic Environmental Assessment\Non Technical Summary\UoM 22_Environmental Report_NT_REVA.docx South Western RBD CFRAM Study SEA Environmental Report - Non Technical Summary UoM 22 The OPW has commissioned a CFRAM study for each of Ireland’s seven River Basin Districts (RBDs)2. Unit of Management 22 is located within the South Western River Basin District (SWRBD) which covers an area of approximately 11,160 km2. The study area of the SWRBD includes most of county Cork, large parts of counties Kerry and Waterford along with small parts of the counties of Tipperary and Limerick. The study area contains over 1,800 km of coastline along the Atlantic Ocean and the Celtic Sea. (Refer to Figure 1.1) In total, six Local Authorities administer the regions within the SWRBD: Cork County Council, Cork City Council, Kerry County Council, Waterford City and County Council, Tipperary County Council and Limerick City and County Council. Much of the SWRBD is rural and the predominant land usage is agriculture. Figure 1.1: South Western River Basin District (SWRBD) 2 River Basin Districts (RBDs) are the main units for the management of river basins and have been delineated by Member States under Article 3 of the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC). RBDs are areas of land and sea, made up of one or more neighbouring river basins together with their associated groundwaters and coastal waters. 2 296235/IWE/CCX/ES011/A July 2017 P:\Cork\DESIGN\projects\296235, SWRBD CFRAM Study\Reports\Strategic Environmental Assessment\Non Technical Summary\UoM 22_Environmental Report_NT_REVA.docx South Western RBD CFRAM Study SEA Environmental Report - Non Technical Summary UoM 22 The Laune / Maine / Dingle Bay Catchment UoM covers an area of approximately 2,031km 2. The large majority of the area is in County Kerry with parts in County Cork. The main rivers within UoM 22 are the Maine, the Flesk and the Laune. UoM 22 also has a number of large lakes including Lough Leane and Muckross Lake (Refer to Figure 1.2). Six Areas for Further Assessment (AFAs) have been identified within UoM 22 (Refer to Table 1.2). Associated with the AFA’s is over 134km of high and medium priority watercourses.

The intention of this consultation process is to enhance transparency in the decision-making process, to ensure that the relevant authorities and the public are informed and are provided with an early opportunity to express their opinion, and to ensure that the information used in the assessment is comprehensive and reliable. Early consultation and the open delivery of information on the assessment will avoid unnecessary delays in the decision-making process at later stages which may arise due to public opposition. Article 5(4) of the SEA Directive requires that Environmental Authorities (designated by each Member State) be consulted when deciding on the scope and level of detail of the information which must be included in the Environmental Report i.e. consultation is statutorily required at this Scoping Stage of the SEA process.

  • Kerry Manor House Region: County Kerry Sleeps: 8 - 30
    Kerry Manor House Region: County Kerry Sleeps: 8 - 30 Overview The property is an attractive mid-Georgian house situated just off the Ring of Kerry, five miles west of Killarney. Set in forty acres of woodland overlooking the River Laune, it is ideally placed for exploring the many attractions of Kerry. The original building on the site was a short castle, so called because it was only two stories high. It was built by Captain O'Sullivan in 1641 and attacked by Cromwell's forces in 1654. In about 1760, the present house was built including having the remaining three walls of the castle forming the hallway. The interior was altered in 1830 and the chimney pieces and plaster work date from this time. The Manor House is approved by the Irish Tourist Board. It is listed in the current editions of the Fodor's and Karen Brown's Guide. Between the main house and the four cottages, the owners can accommodate any number from one to thirty people. This is ideal for families or groups of friends who wish to travel together but retain their independence.

W. Ireland, was chosen for the investigation, and from the ecological data available on the immature stages of Eurycnemus (Murray & Ashe 1981) it was assumed for the purposes of the search that E. crassipes is ectoparasitic on Hydropsyche prepupae/pupae. By driving long, upright branches into the Substrate, the riffle area was divided into three rectangular, box- like sections each about 1 m wide and 10 m long, the total area studied being about 30 Square metres. Work began on the downstream end of each box and every stone likely to support Hydropsyche pupal cases was examined. Any such cases found were removed, opened and discarded if nothing was found. Suspect cases were placed in a tray of river water for further examination, and those which contained or were suspected of containing larvae or pupae of E. crassipes were preserved in 75 % alcohol. Material found: Ireland, Co. Kerry, River Flesk (Grid reference: V964893), 8.VI11.1994, leg.

  • The Kerry Way Self Guided | Free Download
    The Kerry Way: Self-Guided How to plan your multi-day backpacking trip around Ireland’s scenic Ring of Kerry Many are familiar with the beautiful Ring of Kerry in County Kerry, Ireland, but far fewer are aware that the entire route can be walked instead of driven. Despite The Kerry Way’s status as one of the most popular of Ireland’s National Waymarked Trails, I had more difficulty finding advice to help me prepare for it than I did for hikes in Scotland and the United Kingdom. At approximately 135 miles, it’s also the longest of Ireland’s trails, and in retrospect I’ve noticed that many companies who offer self-guided itineraries actually cut off two whole sections of the route - in my opinion, some of the prettiest sections. In honor of completing my own trek with nothing but online articles and digital apps to guide the way, I thought I’d pay it forward by creating my own budget-minded backpacker’s guide (for the WHOLE route) so that others might benefit from what I learned. If you prefer to stay in B&Bs rather than camping or budget accommodations, I’ve outlined how you can swap out some of my choices for your own. Stats: English Name: The Kerry Way Irish Name: Slí Uíbh Ráthaigh Location: Iveragh Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland Official Length: 135 miles (217 km), but there are multiple route options Completion Time: 9 Days is the typical schedule High Point: 1,263ft (385m) at Windy Gap, between Glencar and Glenbeigh Route Style: Circular Loop Table of Contents: (Click to Jump To) Preparedness: Things to Consider Weather Gear Amenities Currency Language Wildlife Cell Service Physical Fitness Popularity Waymarking To Camp or Not to Camp?

    Kerry Step Challenge The Healthy Ireland Fund supported by the Department of Health, Department of Children and Youth Affairs and the Department of Rural and Community Development. KERRY STEP CHALLENGE Overview The national ‘In This Together’ campaign was launched by an Taoiseach Leo Varadkar to promote activity, mental wellbeing and staying connected as the population deals with the impact of COVID-19. The Kerry Step Challenge is one of the Kerry County Council initiatives launched under this campaign which is designed to promote and support wellbeing in the county. The Kerry Step Challenge is a six-week event designed to promote and support the people living in the county to stay active, connected and apply the Five Ways to Wellbeing. It involves virtually completing routes in the county by accumulating daily steps. As national COVID-19 movement restrictions are in place, participants do not visit the routes to complete the challenge. Instead, participants accumulate an equivalent number of steps that would be taken to complete each route. A total of six routes of varying distances and step counts are included in the challenge.
