The responsibility for the maintenance of this channel rests with Meath County Council. Following a request made by Meath County Council after the flood event of 24 October, 2011, the Office of Public Works undertook, on this occasion, to carry out minor maintenance works on the Castle stream on the Council's behalf.

It is planned to commence the works before April, 2012. The works will involve the removal of trees and vegetation from the channel.
