Disclaimers:

Coastal Zones/Wind Energy Strategy/Solar Energy Strategy/LCA:

Where discrepancies exist between the digital copy and the pdf copy the pdf copy represents the adopted plan and will take precedence.

Record of Protected Structures:

The adopted Record of Protected Structures is included in Volume 5 of the County Development Plan 2022-2028. In the event of a discrepancy occurring between the digital version and Volume 5, Volume 5 will take precedence.

Flood Zoning:

This flood zone mapping was prepared as part of the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) of the Wexford County Development Plan 2022-2028 to inform a broad flood risk assessment of the county. Please refer to Volume 11 Strategic Flood Risk Assessment for further details. The flood mapping is made up of individual flood mapping datasets, and each dataset has different levels of confidence. To this end, this flood mapping should not be relied upon at individual site or property level. Where discrepancies exist between the digital copy and the pdf copy the pdf copy represents the adopted plan and will take precedence.

As advised in the County Development Plan, flood hazard and flood risk information is an emerging dataset of information and the flood maps used by Wexford County Council may be altered in light of future data and analysis. Wexford County Council will screen for flood risk based on the flood maps that form part of the Strategic Flood Risk Assessment and any future updated versions of these maps or any other future flood maps or risk assessment information provided by the Office of Public Works, or other consultants engaged by the Council for that purpose.

In this regard, some components used in the SFRA flood mapping have been superceded by the publication of the National Indicative Fluvial Mapping (NIFM) and the National Coastal Flood Hazard Mapping (NCFHM). These datasets are available to view on https://www.floodinfo.ie/map/floodmaps/. However, they do not supercede the SFRA mapping in all locations. Users are therefore advised to contact the Planning Department, Wexford County Council to obtain information on the most up to date flood maps relating to a particular area and for user guidance notes applicable to the use of that mapping.
