Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Ireland's Water Quality: Discussion
Mr. David Flynn:
There will be 46 catchment plans, which are sub-plans of the river basin management plan. They will look at each of the 46 catchments and what is required for urban waste water; hydromorphology, which is the flow and shape of rivers; forestry; and agriculture. It will involve engaging through the local authorities with the local stakeholders in the catchments, taking the national level requirements and commitments and bringing them down into the catchments. We will start with five pilot catchments.
