Eirgrid Community Update, May 2011

Eirgrid have circulated information relating to progress on the proposed 400kV North-South Interconnector, which is planned to pass through our area. Eirgrid have prepared a preliminary re-evaluation report which reviews the issues raised during the previous Strategic Infrastructure Act Application made to An Bord Pleanala in 2009 (and subsequently withdrawn during the Oral Hearing Stage in 2010). A non-statutory consultation process is now taking place in relation to the re-evaluation report.

The DDCDA intends to make a submission in relation to the non-statutory consultation on behalf of the community of Doohamlet. Details of the re-evaluation report are available to download from the Eirgrid website, or are available to view in;

Carrickmacross Information Centre, The Workhouse, Shercock Road, Carrickmacrosson Wednesdays between 1pm and 7pm.

Alternatively phone 1890 25 26 90 or email NorthSouth@eirgrid.com for more information.

The closing date for submissions for this phase of the project is the 17th June 2011.
