Lower Shannon Sediment Survey

Description

The survey shall take place over a reach of approximately 6.7km in the old channel of the River Shannon, between cross-sections 25SHAN08392 and 25SHAN08959 and on the Mulkear from 25KEAR0073 down to the confluence (approx. 0.8km). The Scope is to capture the topography of the River Shannon and River Mulkear as outlined in the drawings in the Appendix to the Lower Shannon Sediment Survey Specification. The Scope also includes liaison with the various Relevant Authorities and Landowners and Utility Service Providers with respect to access to lands. The results of this survey will be used as a basis for the 2d hydraulic modelling of the River Shannon and lower Mulkear River where each of the features of the river channel need to be represented.

The Scope is to capture the topography of the River Shannon and River Mulkear as outlined in the drawings in the Appendix to the Bathymetry Survey Specification. The Scope also includes liaison with the various Relevant Authorities and Landowners and Utility Service Providers with respect to access to lands and temporary traffic management arrangements, if required. The results of this survey will be used as a basis for the 2d hydraulic modelling of the River Shannon and lower Mulkear River where each of the features of the river channel need to be represented. The Surveyor shall employ personnel and sub-contractors where appropriate skilled and experienced in carrying out works of the nature described in this Specification and who are both experienced in and competent to liaise with the Relevant Local Authorities, landowners and Utility Service Providers.
