LAWPRO will hold a community information meeting about water quality and water related issues in the Listowel Municipal District.
The Local Authority Waters Programme is a national shared service working on behalf of the 31 local authorities in Ireland coordinating efforts to achieve good water quality across the country.
The meeting is being held to make people aware of the work to improve water quality in the area and to encourage community engagement.
It takes place on Tuesday June 10th at the Kerry Writers Museum, Listowel from 7.00pm – 9.30pm.
Ahead of the public meeting, Anthony Coleman, Director of Services with LAWPRO said: “As we are coming to the end of 2nd cycle work in the Listowel Municipal District area and begin implementation of the new Water Action Plan we would like to take this opportunity to welcome members of the public to come along and find out more about what’s happening in their local waterbodies and river catchments.
We hope to engage as many people as possible at this meeting in Kerry because public participation and support is key to achieving water quality improvements. We would also like to thank all those whether in a voluntary or paid capacity, working in their local areas to help make a difference to their natural waters and the biodiversity that live in and around them.”
The public meeting will begin at 7pm in the Kerry Writers Museum, Listowel, Co. Kerry and refreshments will be available.
