Applications are invited for the following LAWPRO positions:(1) COMMUNITY FUNDING LEAD (Grade VII)
The EU Water Framework Directive [WFD] 2000 seeks to protect and improve our natural waters, including rivers, lakes, groundwaters, coastal waters and transitional waters. The Water Framework Directive objectives are implemented through the National River Basin Management Plans (RBMP) and measures to achieve them in the Programmes of Measures (POMS).
The European Union [Water Policy] Regulations 2014, gave effect to a new, three-tier, governance framework and placed new obligations on local authorities to co-ordinate the catchment management and public participation elements of the Water Framework Directive.
To enable local authorities to meet their objectives, they have established the Local Authority Waters Programme [LAWPRO] to facilitate a co-ordinated regional approach. Kilkenny County Council and Tipperary County Council, acting jointly, have been appointed as lead local authorities to act on behalf of all local authorities in managing this Programme.
