Planning permission has been approved for the upgrade of an existing boat slipway at the Inland Fisheries Ireland base at Mullaghboy in Kilnaleck.
The approved development will consist of an extension in length to the existing slipway to make it more usable in low water conditions.
The addition of a bumper to the existing quay wall was also a part of the application which will reduce damage to tied up boats.
An Appropriate Assessment and a Natura Impact Statement were prepared and submitted with this application.
Cavan County Council gave Inland Fisheries Ireland the green light for these upgrade works with five conditions attached.
