What’s proposed

project works will include permanent renovation works to existing masonry lock chamber at Staleen Lower and the provision of new timber and steel Lock Gates at each end of the lock. The works will include enabling works to facilitate access to and a working platform for machinery at the lock, the construction of temporary timber stop-board dams and the pumping of standing water and dredging of accumulated silt from the bed of the lock. This silt will be stored and dried out on site, in a lined bunded storage area, adjacent to the north side of the lock. The works will also include the repair and re-pointing of the 100 metre long masonry wash wall to the west of the lock. Altogether the permanent renovation works at the lock and wash wall will extend over a length of about 150 metres. The temporary and enabling works will extend further westwards to the Site Compound. The projects includes for the provision of a temporary Site Compound on the south side of the canal that will have access via a private road to the L1601 Donore-Slane road to facilitate site traffic. Machine and construction access from the Site Compound to the Staleen Lock will be via a temporary earthen causeway, constructed across the Canal at a point about 260 metres to the east of Fullam's Bridge, and then eastwards across privately owned lands. An Appropriate Assessment Environmental Screening and Natura Impact Statement (NIS) report was prepared for the project by Dr. Patrick Moran of Forest Environmental Research and Services, FERS Ltd, in compliance with Appropriate Assessment of Plans and Projects in Ireland - Guidance for Planning Authorities (DoEHLG 2011). A Habitat Map, Plant Species List, Bat Survey and Archaeological Assessment have also been prepared. These are all included in the Planning Application documentation
