AIE: Assessments of the impact on carbon sequestration / emissions from forestry as a consequence ofStorms Darragh and Eowyn

AIE 25 105 Request

1) Assessments of the impact on carbon sequestration / emissions from forestry as a consequence of
Storms Darragh and Eowyn.
2) An assessment of the impacts on water quality from forestry as a consequence of Storms Darragh
and Eowyn.
3) Maps in GIS format of forest areas impacted by the two storms.

DAFM assesses each licence application on its own merits, part of this assessment includes assessing the potential impact on receiving waterbodies. This was the procedure pre-storm and continues to be the procedure for all applications post-storm. All licences utilised to deal with storm damage arising from Storms Darragh and Eowyn will have undergone this assessment.

Assessment of forest wind damage is ongoing at this time. These spatial data should be available by the end of April 2025, however, this date for completion of the mapping exercise is indicative only as cloud free satellite imagery is required to complete the mapping work and availability of cloud free imagery is weather dependent.
