If you are applying for a foreshore consent you must meet with us to discuss your proposals. Before the meeting you will need to send us a pre-application form giving details of the project.
Before the meeting you must provide:
- a full description of the project
- a project timescale
- details of any other consents required
- details of any consultations undertaken
If you are applying for an Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) project you must show how your proposed project will comply with Ireland's Offshore Renewable Energy Development Plan.
You should be familiar with planning, environmental impact assessment and appropriate assessment rules.
Before sending us a formal application we may advise you to carry out further consultations with State bodies and those with an interest in the project locally.
We may insist that that you consult with particular bodies / interested parties.
