The Department received an application from Clonakilty Town Council for a foreshore lease for the construction of a tidal barrage at Clonakilty. Following a technical examination of the application by the Department, the town council was asked to consider revising the operating conditions applying to the barrage, with a view to ensuring its optimal effectiveness. Proposed revised conditions were received from the local authority in March 2005 and the Department is now satisfied with the proposals.

The Department has requested clarification from Clonakilty Town Council on the relationship between the revised operating conditions and the terms of the permission for the project granted by An Bord Pleanála, and will be in a position to finalise consideration of the application when a response has been received.
