Aspects environnementaux
The project is subject to the EU directive concerning Environmental Impact Assessment, which has been transposed directly into national law. It is anticipated that most of the project will fall under Annex II of that directive. ESB is known for being proactive with regard to the requirements of the directive and the national law. Mitigating measures are expected to concern mainly to the visual aspects of overhead lines, which can be minimised by design and careful choice of routes. Overall, the environmental impact of the project is expected to be limited and acceptable.
