During the Summer, the OPW invited Local Authorities to apply for funding in respect of minor flood mitigation works that would be carried out by the Authorities in 2009, subject to specific criteria. No application was received from Louth County Council. The OPW will shortly seek applications in relation to works to be undertaken in 2010. It will be open to Louth County Council to apply for funding under this programme.
