| dc.description | The Department of Housing, Planning, and Local Government (DHPLG) has prepared a River Basin
Management Plan (RBMP), hereafter referred to as the RBMP. This is a requirement under Article
13 of Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2000
establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy, better known as the
Water Framework Directive (WFD). The first cycle RBMP covered the period from 2009 to 2015. Due
to some delays in developing the second cycle, the plan which is subject to this Natura Impact
Statement (NIS), will cover the period from 2018 – 2021. A third plan will subsequently be required
to cover the period 2022 – 2027. The second cycle RBMP sets out the framework for ensuring the
water environment of the Republic of Ireland is protected and improved, in line with the objectives
of the WFD.
The preparation of this Natura Impact Statement (NIS) complies with the requirements of Article 6 of
the Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and of Wild
Fauna and Flora (as amended) (hereafter referred to as the Habitats Directive). This is transposed in
Ireland principally through the Planning and Development Act 2000 (as amended) and the European
Communities (Birds and Natural Habitats) Regulations 2011 (as amended). The NIS has been
prepared by RPS on behalf of the DHPLG (the Competent Authority) and facilitates the appropriate
assessment (AA) by the Department. The DHPLG’s AA decision will mark the conclusion of the AA
process. | en |
