Formal Public Consultation for the Application took place between Wednesday 11th March and Thursday 4th June 2020.
- Submissions were received by the DoHLGH from both the public and statutory bodies and sent to DP Energy for response.
- DP Energy returned a ‘Response to Submissions’ document to the DoHLGH to address matters raised in these submissions.
- We are currently awaiting the decision regarding our Foreshore Licence Application.
As a result of the feedback we received from the public during phase one consultation we will not progress investigations within the eastern-most ‘leg’ (leading to the coast off Helvick Head).
A separate Foreshore Licence Application will be submitted to the DoHLGH in June 2021 for an alternative investigation area between Youghal and Ballymacoda. This broadly follows similar routing to the Celtic Interconnector.
