The role of the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) of my Department is to promote awareness of natural heritage and biodiversity issues through education, outreach to schools and engaging with stakeholders and to designate and advise on the protection of habitats and species identified for nature conservation, having particular regard to the need to consult with interested parties.
With specific regard to this area, my Department does not have any designated sites at this location.
