Flood Risk Management Plan

The draft Flood Risk Management Plan (or the draft Plan) is a non-technical document for consultation, and it summarises what has been done and elaborates on the findings and recommendations of the Study. In summary, the draft Plan provides details on the following:

assessment of flood risk, through the identification of flood hazard areas and the associated impacts of flooding; and
identification of viable structural and non-structural flood defence measures and options for managing the flood risks

An indicative programme for implementation of these measures and options is set out in the draft Plan with timescales suggested according with the cycles of the EU Floods Directive. The draft Plan for the FEM FRAM study area is available to download at the following link.

Comments on the draft Plan are invited until the 30th of January 2012. Following a review of comments received, the draft Plan will be amended, finalised and published, together with a post-adoption SEA Statement, documenting how the comments received have been addressed.

All comments, feedback and observations should be submitted by email to fem-frams@fingalcoco.ie or in writing to: Denise Treacy, Water Services Department, Fingal County Council, Grove Road, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15.
