DatasetVerified2/7DownloadSubscribe🇮🇪Ireland

This dataset identifies Water Framework Directive (WFD) surface water bodies in Ireland that intersect with Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) designated for specific conservation objective species. These SACs are designated under the EU Habitats Directive (Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992) in conjunction with the Birds Directive (79/409/EEC). The dataset supports spatial analysis linking national water body classifications with protected nature conservation sites, helping to identify surface waters relevant to the ecological requirements of species protected under EU nature legislation. It forms part of Ireland's national register of protected areas.WFD Surface Water Bodies intersecting with Designated Special Areas of Conservation Conservation Objective Species under the EU Habitats Directive (together with the Birds Directive) - Council Directive 92/43/EE of 21st May 1992 and Directive 79/409/EEC (2).
