In early May, Mayo County Council contacted the Office of Public Works (OPW) in relation to the collapse of sections of retaining walls along the Castlebar River. The OPW understands that the Council will shortly submit an application for funding for remedial works under the minor flood mitigation works scheme. If an application is received, it will be assessed by the OPW having regard to the eligibility criteria of the scheme and the overall availability of resources.
