The Local Authority Waters Programme (LAWPRO), working on behalf of Ireland’s 31 local authorities to protect and restore good water quality in rivers, lakes, estuaries, ground and coastal water, is holding a community information meeting about water quality and water related issues in the Castlebar Municipal District.
Under Ireland’s Water Action Plan, formerly the River Basin Management Plan, LAWPRO works in areas where water quality requires protection or restoration. LAWPRO collaborates with other stakeholders in these areas, which are called Priority Areas for Action (PAAs), to implement targeted water quality improvements.
The community information meeting on Tuesday, 30th June in Castlebar is being held to make more people aware of work to improve water quality in the Municipal District and to encourage as much engagement as possible with all stakeholders right across the community, including key agencies, special interest groups, voluntary, public and private sectors.
Details of the meeting are as follows:
• Tuesday, 30th June. 7:00-8:30pm
• The Ellison Hotel, Lannagh Road, Castlebar, Co. Mayo, F23 V279
At the meeting LAWPRO experts will take you through the work that has been carried out in the 2nd cycle and what is being planned for the 3rd cycle Water Action Plan. There will also be opportunities for the public to ask questions and talk to members of the Agricultural Sustainability Support and Advisory Programme (ASSAP).
