Implementation of WFD River Basin Management Plans for Northern Ireland Bridgeen Magorrian

Introduction Background to the River Basin Management Plans. Update in the development of the plans. Structure of the 2009 Plans The results of the plans Implementation of the plans Future work

What is a River Basin Management Plan? The plan addresses: groundwater wetlands rivers lakes/loughs transitional waters (eg estuaries) coastal waters It sets out objectives to be achieved in water bodies and the actions or measures required to improve their status. The plan is an integrated approach to protecting, improving and sustaining the water environment.

Every 6 years Classify water bodies Set objectives to deliver improvements Proportionate measures The Planning Process

Percentage Good Status in Groundwater River Basin District North East 87.5% 100.0% North West 100.0% Neagh Bann 92.9% 100.0%

Local Management Area Documents Description of catchment Water quality status of water bodies in the LMA Protected areas included Pressures preventing good status Objectives to be achieved Measures planned and proposed Local measures/initiatives

Where to from here Launch of plan 21 Jan 09 Report to WISE (Water Information System for Europe) by 22 Mar 2010) Meeting with local groups to further develop localised measures – early in 2010 Catchment Stakeholder Group meetings - Spring 2010 to set out a more detailed localised implementation plan Carry out investigations and site visits to take forward implementation. Increase liaison and education activities.
