An application for funding was received from Kerry County Council on 31 May, 2011, under the Minor Flood Mitigation Works and Coastal Protection Scheme, to undertake works involving the strengthening and extension of the rock armour structure at this location. The Council estimate the cost of the works to be €350,000. The application is one of five schemes for which the Council have applied for funding in 2011.

The application is currently being assessed in accordance with the scheme criteria, and also having regard to the overall availability of resources.
