Schedule of Accreditation

Permanent Laboratory: Category A

THE IRISH NATIONAL ACCREDITATION BOARD (INAB) is the Irish body for the accreditation of

organisations including laboratories.

Laboratory accreditation is available to testing and calibration facilities operated by manufacturing

organisations, government departments, educational institutions and commercial testing/calibration

services. Indeed, any organisation involved in testing, measurement or calibration in any area of

technology can seek accreditation for the work it is undertaking.

Each accredited laboratory has been assessed by skilled specialist assessors and found to meet criteria

which are in compliance with ISO/IEC 17025 or ISO/IEC 15189 (medical laboratories). Frequent audits,

together with periodic inter-laboratory test programmes, ensure that these standards of operation are

maintained.

Testing and Calibration Categories:

Category A:

Permanent laboratory calibration and testing where the laboratory is erected on a fixed

location for a period expected to be greater than three years.

Category B: Site calibration and testing that is performed by staff sent out on site by a permanent

laboratory that is accredited by the Irish National Accreditation Board.

Category C: Site calibration and testing that is performed in a site/mobile laboratory or by staff sent

out by such a laboratory, the operation of which is the responsibility of a permanent

laboratory accredited by the Irish National Accreditation Board.

Category D: Site calibration and testing that is performed on site by individuals and organisations that

do not have a permanent calibration/testing laboratory. Testing may be performed using

(a) portable test equipment

(b) a site laboratory

(c) a mobile laboratory or

(d) equipment from a mobile or site laboratory

Standard Specification or Test Procedure Used:

The standard specification or test procedure that is accredited is the issue that is current on the date of the most

recent visit, unless otherwise stated.

Glossary of Terms

Facilities:

Public calibration/testing service: Commercial operations which actively seek work from others.

Conditionally available for public

calibration/testing:

Established for another primary purpose but, more commonly than not,

is available for outside work.

Normally not available for public

calibration/testing:

Unavailable for public calibration/testing more often than not.

Laboratory users wishing to obtain assurance that calibration or test results are reliable and carried out to the Irish

National Accreditation Board criteria should insist on receiving an accredited calibration certificate or test report.

Users should contact the laboratory directly to ensure that this scope of accreditation is current. INAB will, on

request, verify the status and scope.

DESCRIPTION OF RECEIVING ENVIRONMENT

F.1. Description of the Receiving Environment

The Riverstown WwTP discharges to the Unshin River. In terms of designations this River is a designated SAC. There is no drinking water abstractions downstream/ down gradient of the discharge. The river is however designated a river for Drinking Water upstream of the WWTP in the townland of Bellanascarva. The river is not a nutrient sensitive river.

Although not a Salmonid designated river, the Unshin and its tributaries is the most important salmon producing river in Co. Sligo. The system also supports a good population of trout. Suitable spawning ground was located along this stretch, both upstream and downstream of the discharge location. There was a greater proportion of spawning grounds upstream of the discharge location, however, suitable spawning and resting pools were also recorded downstream of the discharge location.

Otter are widespread throughout the Unshin River catchment, and otter signs were also recorded downstream of the discharge location. This watercourse was the subject of recent flooding, and so further signs of otters (e.g. spraints, feeding remains, paths/slides) could have been recently washed away.

Monitoring data from 2012/2013 from both upstream and downstream of the discharge locations demonstrates that the water quality within the Unshin River is in compliance with Schedule 5 of the European Communities Environmental Objectives (Surface Water) Regulations 2009 (S.I. No. 272 of 2009) (see Table 1.0 below).

Table 1.0 Monitoring Data both Upstream and Downstream of WwTP Discharge**

BOD ≤2.6 1.5 1.5

Ammonia (as NH3 – N) ≤0.14 0.041 0.040

Orthophosphate ≤0.075 0.01 0.01

*European Communities Environmental Objectives (Surface Waters) Regulations 2009, S.I. No. 272 of 2009 (95%ile standards presented).

** Data from 2012/2013 monitoring (averaged measured from 3 sampling occasions)

In addition, the 2012 EPA Biological Water Quality monitoring data upstream of the disharge at Riverstown Bridge (Station 0200) was Q4 and the nearest monitoring point downstream (approx. 5.5 km) at Lisconny Bridge (Station 0400) was 4. Further downstream at Ballygrania Bridge (Station 0500) the Q value was 4-5. This 2012 data indicates Good Status water both upstream and downstream of the WwTP discharge.

Waste Assimilative Capacity

Table 2.0a summaries the assimilative capacity calculations which are based on the 2021 estimated loading of 468p.e., 95%ile river flow and water quality standards in the European Communities Environmental Objectives (Surface Water) Regulations, 2009 (S.I. No. 272 of 2009). Assimilative capacity calculations used both actual background concentrations and the notionally clean river concentrations and the WWTP effluent design standards.

Table 2.0a: Assimilative capacity calculations at estimated 2021 loadings of 468p.e. for actual background concentrations and for a notionally clean river using effluent design standards.

Assuming notionally clean water in the Unshin River, the receiving water does not have adequate waste assimilative capacity for the Riverstown WwTP, specifically, for Ammonia.

The WAC was also carried out using the mean discharge concentration for Ammonia for 2015 (i.e. current situation). Based on this calculation it would suggest that the Unshin River has available assimilative capacity to accommodate the WwTP discharge in terms of Ammonia using both the actually background concentrations and the EPA notionally clean river concentrations (see Table 2.0b).

Table 2.0b: Assimilative capacity calculations at estimated 2021 loadings of

468p.e. for actual background concentrations and for a notionally clean river using the 2015 mean effluent concentration for Ammonia (based on 10 samples).

Parameter Background (mg/l)

Predicted downstream quality (mg/l)

EQS* (mg/l)

Ammonia Actual Background

Based on the above it appears that the operation of the Riverstown WwTP and associated discharge to the Unshin River is not noticeably affecting biological water quality. Likewise, the impact of the current discharge on chemical water quality is not considered to be significant.

STATUS/IMPACTS

Overall status The majority of the river water bodies are at High (20) or Good (59) status with some river water bodies, such as the main channel of the Owenmore and upper reaches of the Unshin River, at Moderate (11) or Poor (10) status. For the 8 lakes within the WMU 4 are at Moderate status and 4 are at Good status .

Status elements For river water bodies Q values (macroinvertebrates) dictates status for the most part with fish data and physio-chemical data determining status on only 3 rivers. All rivers pass on all physio-chemical monitoring and there is no chemical monitoring within the WMU. For 7 of the lakes within the WMU the macrophytes and nutrient concentrations dictate the overall status combined with expert opinion in some cases. Templehouselake which is at bad status is dictated by macrophyte and total phosphorus status.

Status of the main rivers within the

WMU

The main rivers in the Owenmore WMU are the Owenmore river system, the Arrow (Unshin) river system, the Owenbeg and Easky river system and the Ballysadare river.

The most recent EPA status classifications for these rivers indicates that only 9% of all river channel length is of High status and 63% is classed as Good. The remainder are classed at moderate, (16%) poor (12%).

OWENMORE – The headwaters of the Owenmore river are at Good status. The Liskeagh tributary joining the main Owenmore channel is at High status, however the first section of the Owenmore River is at Poor status (poor biological assessment). The Black River (Clooneen river) and the Owenbeg River flowing into the main Owenmore channel are at Good status. The river flowing into and out of Bellanascarrow Lough (east of Ballymote) is at Poor status (biological assessment). The lake itself is a Moderate status. The section of main channel from the confluence of the Clooneen River to Templehouse Lough is at Moderate status. Templehouse Lough is classed at moderate status. The section of river from the lake to the confluence of the Owenbeg River is at Moderate status. The latter section of the Owenmore river, flowing through Collooney is at Good status.

UNSHIN (ARROW) – The river flowing into Lough Arrow at Ballinafad is at High status. Lough Arrow is at Good status, and the small lake, Lough Arkedy to the south of Louth Arrow is at Moderate status. The stretch of river from Lough Arrow is at Moderate status until it joins the Unshin river at Ardkeeran Townland.. The Douglas river is classed at Moderate status and joins the main channel downstream of Riverstown. The Drumflintributary joins the Unshin river at Drumflin and is at Moderate status. From here, to where the Unshin meets the Ballysadare river, nearly all tributaries and the main channel are at Good status. There is a short stretch after Ballydawley which is at High status. Dargan Lough, near Ballydawley is at Moderate status. There is a local authority pumping station which may be impacting on water quality status at the sampling location (North

Bridge in Riverstown).

OWENBOY – The head waters of the Owenbeg River system rises in the Ox Mountains and are all at High status. The tributaries join at Glenmore to form the Owenboy river, the main channel of which is classed at Good status throughout the river system. Some tributaries are classed at Poor status at Carrowmurray, Ballinvally and at Seevness. The Owenboy meets the Owenmore river at Annagh Beg.

EASKY – The head waters of the Easky River entering Easky Lough are at High status. Lough Easky itself is at Good status, and so too is all of the main channel of the Easky River at Good status, up until it enters the

sea at Easky. A small tributary entering the main channel downstream of the lake is at High status. The Owenwee river is a tributary of the Easky. Its head waters are at High status, but the main Owenwee channel itself is at Poor status (extrapolation from similar monitored water body). The Gowlan river is another tributary of the Easky river. The upper part of this river is at Good status, and the lower part of the river, where it joins the main Easky river is at Moderate status. The Buncrowey tributary joining the Easky is also at Moderate status. Lough Easky Water Treatment Plant may be having an impact of the water quality in the Buncrowey River (WE_35_207).

FINNED – The river Finned flows to the sea and is classed at Good status.

BALLYBEG – Bally Beg river (Owenbeg) flows to the sea and is classed at Good status.

DUNNEILL – The Dunneill river network flows to the sea and is classed at Good status.

LUGDOON – The small tributaries of the Lugdoon stream are classed at good status, however, the main channel of the Lugdoon which flows to the sea is classed at poor status (based of biological assessment).

DOONFLIN – The Doonflin river flows to the sea and is at Good status.

ARDNAGLASS – The Ardnaglass river system is mainly at Good status, with the head waters, the Dunmoran river at High status. The Ardnaglass flows to the sea at Sligo Bay.

Abstractions


SELECTED ACTION PROGRAMMENB All relevant basic measures and general supplementary measures/surveys apply

Point Sources WWTP licensing and upgrades will be applied where identified in the needs assessment. Ballymote WWTP has been prioritised for capital works upgrades as these schemes are necessary to ensure compliance with the Water Framework Directive. Coolloney, Ballymote & Ballinacarrow have been prioritised under the 2009 needs assessment for inclusion on the WSIP 2010–2012. Investigation of sewage and trade discharges and licence review where appropriate will also be carried out. The following Point source supplementary measures have been suggested for certain river water bodies within the WMU for municipal and industrial pressures: Capital works, Investigation prior to capital works, Implementation of pollution reduction programmes for Shellfish Waters, Implementation of an Appropriate Performance Management System, Investigation of CSO’s and Ensure Capacity of treatment plant is not exceeded.

Diffuse Sources Particular measures will be required to address diffuse pollution pressures from agriculture such as the Good Agricultural Practices Regulations investigations and

enforcement.

Supplementary measures apply within WMU for septic tanks (OSWWTS) including compliance with the new binding EPA Code of Practice for Wastewater Treatment

Systems and Disposal Systems.

In relation to existing unsewered properties, improvements are required regarding the operational performance, maintenance and monitoring arrangements of septic tanks and other on-site waste water treatment systems serving such properties. In response,

the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government intends to bring forward and consult on proposals for legislation during 2010. It is intended that this legislation will be in place by quarter 3 of 2010. The proposed legislation will provide standards for the performance, operation and maintenance of septic tanks and similar on-site wastewater treatment systems. It will also provide for the monitoring and inspection of the performance of such treatment systems and will set out the responsibilities of

households served by those systems, including requirements to carry out remedial actions where necessary.

Supplementary measures that apply for forestry include: Riparian zone management, enhancement of sediment control and drainage management for both eutrophication and sedimentation for the following water bodies WE_35_789, WE_35_1161, WE_35_2219, WE_35_127, WE_35_939, WE_35_3140 and WE_35_2244..

Other Supplementary measures that apply to address morphological pressures include: Channelisation investigation so that any impact on status caused by past drainage schemes in the WMU can be determined and addressed. The following water bodies have channelisation investigation assigned as a supplementary measure for morphology: WE_35_420, WE_35_4066, WE_35_2496, WE_35_3966 and WE_35_4012.

Protection of drinking waters and future abstraction licensing control will also be important basic measures required to ensure good water quality. Further investigation of quarry risk is needed before measures can be identified.
