The white-clawed crayfish is Ireland’s only crayfish species and Ireland is thought to hold some of the best European stocks of this species, under least threat from external factors. Lake populations of white-clawed crayfish are rare in Britain and across Europe so this adds to Ireland’s unique position in harbouring populations in lime-rich lakes. The current study sought to add to the body of existing knowledge on crayfish stocks in Irish lakes and provide a baseline reference for future studies.

Tourism is an important indigenous industry for Ireland, its benefits influencing many different sectors within the wider economy. The purpose of this strategy is to provide a road-map for the development of the tourism industry in County Westmeath over the next five years. In its preparation input was sought from public representatives, community groups, tourism providers, state agencies and the wider public. Public consultation workshops were held in Mullingar and Athlone providing opportunities for engagement and discussion. County Westmeath while not a traditional tourism destination has the potential to develop a unique and high quality tourism product. With its central location, proximity to Dublin and served by quality infrastructure, Westmeath is easily accessed from any part of Ireland. It has an abundance of natural assets, valuable historical built heritage as well as important ancient sites.

  • The Meanderthalltale of the Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin in Joyce’S Notetaking
    GENETIC JOYCE STUDIES – Issue 16 (Spring 2016) The meanderthalltale of the Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin in Joyce’s notetaking Viviana Mirela Braslasu and Robbert-Jan Henkes The Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin, written as a meandering series of footnotes and side notes and appendixes, reminiscent of the Night Lessons chapter in Finnegans Wake, looms large in Joyce’s 1930 notebook VI.B.29. The merchant-historian Charles Haliday published his account of Dublin as a Viking seaport in 1881 (republished 1884, M. H. Gill & Son, 50 Upper Sackville Street, Dublin), but it’s not only about the era of the ninth century till 1014, when the Vikings after the battle of Clontarf were sent back to sea. We learn immediately that the pyramids in Egypt were called, in the middle ages, ‘the seven granaries of S. Joseph’ and almost one-third of the book is taken up by equally heavily footnoted appendixes, about the ancient name of Dublin. Haliday’s reveling in details and his unique inability to stick to the story is one of the things that must have appealed to Joyce in the book. In VI.B.29, Joyce read only up to page 173, but that was, as Vincent Deane mentions in his introduction, because Joyce had already read the book in the Spring of 1925 and made notes in VI.B.7. 1 A random double page of The Scandinavian Kingdom of Dublin It now turns out that Joyce not only made notes in VI.B.7, but also in the next notebook, the non- extant VI.D.2 of April-May 1925, and (on rereading a passage) in Notebook VI.B.8 of July- September of that year – with in Notebook VI.B.9 of June-July 1925 perhaps an intermediate insight.

  • Phosphate Implementation Report 2006 ______
    Phosphate Implementation Report 2006 _____________________________________________________________________ 1.0 Introduction. Environmental Protection Agency reports have clearly documented that surface water quality in Ireland has declined over the last 30 years, with a slight improvement in some water bodies in recent years. The agency has identified eutrophication (excessive plant and algal growth) as the major threat to water quality. The third report of the E.P.A. on the state of the Environment – Irelands Environment 2004 indicated that agriculture is responsible for a significant proportion of Irish water pollution in rivers, lakes, estuaries and groundwaters. Agriculture is considered by the E.P.A to be a major cause of water pollution in Ireland. Agriculture is the largest source of inputs to Irish waters of phosphorus and nitrogen contributing an estimated 73% and 82%, respectively. Interim water quality targets set by the E.P.A, for maintaining and improving the quality of water in Irish rivers and lakes have been given statutory recognition, by passing into law of the Local Government (Water Pollution) Act, 1977 (Water Quality Standards for Phosphorus) regulations, 1988 (S.I. No. 258 of 1998). These interim quality standards are to be achieved over a 10 year period. Westmeath County Council has a responsibility under the phosphorus regulations 1998 (S.I. No. 258 1998) to maintain and/or improve surface water quality in rivers and lakes in their functional area. This report is the fourth implementation report setting out the overall management approach by Westmeath County Council to implement the 1988 Phosphorus Regulations. The Regulations require that water For quality inspection purposesbe maint only.

    Draft Offaly County Development Plan 2014-2020 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (October 2013) Draft Offaly County Development Plan 2014-2020 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment October 2013 Page | 2 Draft Offaly County Development Plan 2014-2020 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment 1. Introduction Flooding is a natural process that can happen at any time in a wide variety of locations. Flooding has significant impacts on human activities; it can threaten people’s lives, their property and the environment. Assets at risk can include housing, transport and public service infrastructure, commercial, industrial and agricultural enterprises. The health, social, economic and environmental impacts of flooding can be significant and have a wide community impact. Understanding flood risk is a key step in managing the impacts of flooding. Spatial Planning has a significant role to play with respect to flood risk management, in particular in ensuring that future development needs avoid or minimise future increases in flood risk. The ‘Planning System and Flood Risk Management’ Guidelines for Planning Authorities issued in November 2009 reinforce the responsibility of Planning Authorities to ensure that flood risk is managed effectively and sustainably as an integral part of the planning process balancing socio-economic needs, environment, and infrastructure and flood risk. As part of the management of flood risk, the guidelines, published jointly by the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DoEHLG) and the Office of Public Works (OPW) set out the requirement for Planning Authorities to undertake a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) examining the risks of flooding in order to aid in making informed and sound planning decisions such as the zoning of particular areas for development or the development of land for particular uses.

Geological history The very oldest rocks in the county are marine sandstones of Silurian age, about 425 Ma, found around the summit of Sion Hill, north of Killucan. Younger rocks, of Devonian age around 400 Ma, are also found on Sion Hill and further west in low hills near Moate. These sandstones and conglomerates, with some volcanic ash layers, were deposited on a low flood plain. The dominant rock types in Westmeath belong to the early part of the Carboniferous, between about 360 and 330 Ma. At that time the region was covered by a shallow tropical sea (Ireland was just south of the Equator then). The sea teemed with life, with animal communities changing as sea levels changed. Also different marine environments formed different types of limestone. Carbonate mud banks or “reefs” (Waulsortian Limestones) developed as upstanding mounds on the sea floor across parts of Westmeath (and much of the Midlands of Ireland). Growth of these mounds was probably due to the rapid accumulation of fine carbonate mud produced by unknown Westmeath: COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND 3 Panorama of Lough Derravaragh organisms.
