The documents relating to the confirmation of the River Suir (Clonmel West) Drainage Scheme have been forwarded to the Department of Finance and are currently being considered. The scheme is estimated to cost approximately €16 million and is expected to be completed within 18 months of commencement. Once the scheme is confirmed, OPW hope to commence the embankment works within a few weeks with the main contract expected to commence in the third quarter of 2007. Provision has been made for the scheme within the OPW's budget for flood relief activities.
