Approximately 2km of new drainage networks and collection systems have been put in place to date. A flood risk assessment was completed and a flood relief scheme proposed for the downstream extent of the watercourse close to its confluence with the Dodder. Emergency support. This measure does not provide protection downstream of the Church Street Bridge. The Scheme, that comprises mainly of tidal Flood Defences walls and upstream storage in a retention basin upstream of the town, in addition to pump stations, localised defences and repair works to the existing channel banks, to provide protection against a 100-Year flood (1.0% Annual Exceedance Probability) for fluvial and a 200-Year flood (0.5% Annual Exceedance Probability) for tidal for 296 properties against flooding from either fluvial flooding, tidal flooding or both. The low benefit-cost ratio is due to the relatively low risk to properties during the 1% AEP fluvial flood event in Trim, resulting in a small benefit value. The Scheme, which comprises conveyance improvement, Flood Defence embankments and walls, and pumping stations is expected to provide protection against the 100-Year flood (1% Annual Exceedance Probability) for about 285 properties from the River Bride. The Dodder CFRAM Study included an assessment of the Little Dargle Stream. This dataset provides an estimate of extreme water levels around the coast of Ireland for a range of Annual Exceedance Probabilities (AEPs). This dataset shows the shoreline combined wave climate and water level conditions for the Coastal Areas Potentially Vulnerable to Wave Overtopping (CAPOs) that were included The Tolka Flood Alleviation Scheme was initiated in 2002 following a major tidal flooding event in February of that year and a major fluvial flooding event in November 2002, these had estimated return periods of 68 and 100 years. The location and volume of storage determine the locations and heights of hard defences required downstream, these issues will be considered at project-level assessment stage. Arterial Drainage Schemes are schemes the OPW has a statutory duty to maintain. The High-End Future Scenario extents where generated taking in the potential effects of climate change using an increase in rainfall of 30%. The proposed measure consists of a series of flood walls and embankments, along with the replacement of a footbridge on the Cullion watercourse. The National Indicative Fluvial Mapping, and the content on this Website, are provided to comply with the requirements of the Regulations and do not, and are not intended to, constitute advice. Layer Information This service does not tell you: how likely it is that an individual property will flood about flood risk from sources such as blocked drains and burst pipes Other ways to get this information. The proposed measure for Sutton & Howth North that may be implemented after project-level assessment and planning or Exhibition and confirmation might include physical works, such as a combination of wave return walls and flood defence walls with an average and maximum height of 1.1m and 2.4m respectively. The Scheme comprises of flood defence walls, embankments, flood gates and pumping stations for storm water that would otherwise accumulate behind the defences. These hard defences would protect to the 0.5% AEP coastal event with an average height of 1.13m and a total length of 2.4km. Installation of a simple flood-forecasting unit, including an addition of telemetry to an existing hydrometric gauge to send warning messages when water level reaches a specified trigger point. Waterways Ireland owns, maintains and operates further infrastructure, such as weirs and some navigation canals, related to navigation on the River Shannon. This is also referred to as an Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) of 0.5%. Such was the case in the Manning catchment in 1978. Medium Probability flood events have approximately a 1-in-a-100 chance of occurring or being exceeded in any given year. However, Trim could benefit from the implementation of the Boyne Flood Forecasting and Warning System, The Ashbourne Flood Relief Scheme was initiated in 2015 following major flooding in November 2014. agus sonra a bhaineann le creimeadh a chuirtear i lthair ar na larscileanna seo. This data is an update of the extreme water level estimation undertaken as part of the Irish Coastal Protection Strategy Study (ICPSS) between 2004 and 2013. The OPW, ESB and WI are working together, through the Shannon Flood Risk State Agency Co-ordination Working Group to build on the existing co-ordination of water level management activities and to trial the lowering of the lake levels in Lough Allen to help mitigate potential flood risk during Winter months. Measures at this level are aimed at managing or reducing flood risk in more than one community. The Scheme will provide protection for approximately 80 properties against for 1% Annual Exceedance Probability flood event from the Clare River and Turlough areas at Carnmore / Cashla and Lakeview and which comprises of the following: The proposed measure would include the placement of quay defence walls in order to protect against the 0.5% AEP design event with an average wall height of 1.2m, as required for public safety.

Survey points will also be recorded on a 10m grid in the intertidal foreshore and other areas as required. Construction was undertaken within three local authority areas Meath, Fingal and Dublin City. The option also involves rehabilitating of the flapped gates on the Sluice River at Portmarnock Bridge and the construction of a flood embankment on the left bank of the Sluice River upstream of Portmarnock Bridge.The existing flood walls and their foundations would be strengthened using structural engineering works to allow walls to provide sufficient flood defence function up to the 0.5% AEP tidal event. The Scheme is currently at design stage. Layer Information It should be noted that the predictive maps are limited to locations where the flood pattern was detectable and capable of being hydrologically modelled to a sufficient level of confidence. The Raheny (Santry River) Flood Protection Project was initiated following major fluvial flooding in 1986, 2008, 2009 and 2011, and a first phase was constructed in 2013. They are community-based maps. This risk can only be reduced/removed with the use of structural defences. The purpose of the schemes was to create land for agriculture. These hard defences would protect to the 1% AEP fluvial flood event with an average height of 1.36m and a total length of 0.64 km. The Duleek Flood Relief scheme was initiated in 1995 and was constructed from 1997 to 1998. The maps do not, and are not intended to, constitute advice. A 5-year programme has been agreed to oversee the establishment of this new service.

Layer Information The Arklow Flood Relief Scheme [Avoca River (Arklow) Drainage Scheme] was initiated in 2002 following major flooding in 1986, 1989 and 2002. The OPW requires that insurers, who are party to the agreement, take full account of the information provided by the OPW when assessing exposure to flood risk for private dwellings and small businesses. Areas where, based on the Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment, the risks associated with flooding are considered to be potentially significant. The development of a flood forecasting system for the Boyne River Basin will progress as part of the development of the National Flood Forecasting Service. It is currently at the Outline Design and Exhibition stage, and is expected to go to construction in 2018. Upgrading existing walls (average height 1.3m and a total length of 116m). This scheme provides protection against 100-Year flood (1% Annual Exceedance Probability) for 25 properties against flooding from the Morell River, the Annagall Stream, the Tobenavoher Stream and the Hartwell River. The potential measure would protect at-risk properties against the 1% AEP Fluvial flood event by flood defences. The purpose of the survey was to obtain a comprehensive and up to date record of the present coastal erosion situation around the entire coastline of Ireland in order to facilitate the identification of priority areas for future expenditure. The High End Future Scenario (HEFS) flood extents represent a projected future scenario for the year 2100 and Existing arterial drainage maintenance scheme will need to be maintained as part of this option. These datasets show the detailed shoreline combined wave climate and water level conditions for the Coastal Areas Potentially Vulnerable to Wave Overtopping (CAPOs) This is also referred to as an Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) of 10%. Hard Defence would also include a 253m long section of raised road where space is restricted for walls or embankments. The floods are shown as polygons. Manning river at sunset. This layer shows the predicted location of the coastline in 2050. With more than 70,000 volunteers across the state, we provide fire and emergency services to more than 95 percent of NSW. The proposed measure consists of using storage areas providing a combined volume of 66,310m 3 on the Ballywilly Brook along with a series of embankments and walls along the Donagh River. Nor cheart na sonra a sid gan nta seo, agus nor cheart iad a sid ina n-aonar.

The proposed measure consists of a series of walls and embankments. Expand this section to see national measures under consideration at the selected location. the 200-year flood), although this period is not the length of time that will elapse between two such events occurring, as, although unlikely, two very severe events may occur within a short space of time. The Scheme, which comprises mainly of flood defence walls and embankments, provides protection against a 200-Year flood (0.5% Annual Exceedance Probability) for an estimated 1,000 buildings in Dublin City from tidal flooding. The OPW carried out a survey of these embankments in 1939 and 1940 as part of the work of the Browne Commission. In accordance with the Guidelines on the Planning System and Flood Risk Management (DECLG/OPW, 2009), planning authorities should seek to reduce the extent of hard surfacing and paving and require the use of sustainable drainage techniques to reduce the potential impact of development on flood risk downstream. The invert level of these culverts is 35.3m; Regarding of the riverbank 130m upstream and downstream of the bridge to 35.3m to maximize efficiency of the flood alleviation culverts; Construction of two Lock Gates across the Canal and a sluice gate across the channel flowing into the marina from the canal; Upgrade existing culvert to a 2.0m dia. Construction 1,799m of new flood defence walls, 846m of new embankments and a 2m floodgate.

Consequently, there would be flood risk reduction juxtaposed with a reduced sediment and pollutant load entering the protected watercourses. over 6m and 1 No. Full details are available here. These studies provide an improvement and update to the wave climate and water level combinations of known Annual The scheme includes consideration of the provision of an early flood warning system and flood barriers for individual property protection in Graiguenamanagh. Printable maps have been produced for the Dublin and Raphoe to show the potentially significant flood risk from rainfall (pluvial) source of flooding. Admhaonn an t-sideoir gur cipcheart dOifig na nOibreacha Poibl na sonra a bhaineann le tuile (lena n-irtear fairsing, doimhneachtai tuile, etc.) Construction of a new flood defence embankment, floodgate and pump. The proposed hard defences avoid impinging on the qualifying habitats for which the SPA / SAC were designated but does not protect a local recreational area. This would reduce flow along the Ballyhale watercourse therefore significantly reducing the extent of hard defences required. The ESB owns, maintains and operates a range of infrastructure along the River Shannon related to power generation at Ardnacrusha hydro-power station. The purpose of the Pilot Coastal Monitoring Survey Programme is to obtain up to date coastal survey data to inform and facilitate enhanced management of the associated coastal risks; quantify and identify ongoing rates of change (e.g. The Irish Coastal Protection Strategy Study (ICPSS) flood hazard mapping is for strategic purposes, and any defence works potentially The Scheme, that comprises flood defence walls, embankments, and a pumping station for storm water that would otherwise accumulate behind the defences, provides protection against empirically observed flood levels for 22 properties along the Kings River. This number was significantly increased during the 1954 flood when the railway bridge from Fairview Park to East Wall Road collapsed during this river flood. Professional or specialist advice should be sought before taking, or refraining from, any action on the basis of the National Indicative Fluvial Mapping or the Website content. The development of a tidal flood forecasting system was proposed for Whitegate under the Lee CFRAM Study. A study is currently underway to review the hydrology and hydraulic analysis completed under the Lee Pilot CFRAM Study to determine whether a flood protection scheme may be potentially viable for Macroom.

The Brosna (Westmeath, Offaly and Laois) was the first scheme, which commenced in 1947. It is important for the avoidance of increased flood risk that this infrastructure is operated according to the relevant regulations and is maintained in good working order into the future. A Government decision was taken on 5 January 2016 to establish a National Flood Forecasting and Warning Service. These hard defences would protect to the 1% AEP fluvial flood event and 0.5% AEP coastal event with 197m of wall height between 0.6m and 1.2m, and 160m of wall height between 1.2 and 2m. These works were completed in late 2017 and involved the removal of debris from the channel and banks, to make safe prior to building a foundation and retaining wall along the banks. These hard defences would be set back from the river channel where possible and would protect to the 1% AEP fluvial flood event with an estimated average height of 1.2m and length of 2.9km.
