This dataset represents a subset of Special Areas of Conservation that have protected water dependent habitats or species. Detail on the water dependencies of protected habitats and species was provided by National Parks and Wildlife Service. This snapshot was taken of this subset of national SACs for the purpose of …
The river drinking water protected areas (DWPA) are represented by the full extent of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) river waterbodies from which there is a known qualifying abstraction of water for human consumption as defined under Article 7 of the WFD. This dataset represents a snapshot of river waterbodies …
The dataset represents the areas protected under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands and relevant information about them. The points were compiled from SACs, SPAs, and NHAs, and therefore provide only a general indication of Ramsar areas.
This is a subset of the PRTR Facilities dataset, identifying those classified as Quarry. The Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) provides easily accessible key environmental data from industrial facilities in Ireland. The register contains data reported during for the period of 2007 to 2013 for over 300 facilities that …
All Water Framework Directive (WFD) Groundwater bodies have been identified as Drinking Water Protected Areas due to the potential for qualifying abstractions of water for human consumption as defined under Article 7 of the WFD. The groundwater drinking water protected areas (DWPA) are represented by the full extent of each …
Pollution Impact Potential (PIP) maps were generated separately for nitrate and phosphate to rank critical source areas (CSAs) relative to one another from diffuse agriculture for both the groundwater and surface water receptor. The PIP maps are generated by the EPA Catchment Characterisation Tool (CCT). The CCT delineates the CSAs …
