Proposal description

(RED III) development will consist of; laying of underground 33kV medium voltage electrical cables, 6 no. joint bays, with associated ducting and ancillary development. The cables will be laid under public roads and private lands within the townlands of Clohoge and Graigue Co. Tipperary, with c. 860m within the L-4156 and c. 540m within the L-41561 public road and c. 1,092m located on private agricultural land within the townland of Graigue. The underground cable is intended to connect the permitted Killough Solar Farm, approved by Tipperary County Council (Pl. Ref. 2560003), and An Coimisiún Pleanála (Ref No. 323453-25), to a proposed 110kV Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) substation, which will be subject to a separate application for consent to An Coimisiún Pleanála. Temporary alternative access to residential properties on the L-41561 will be provided during the laying of the cable, provided by an existing access track on lands in the townland of Graigue which will connect to the future access track associated with the substation site, allowing direct access to the L-4156 from the L-41561 for the duration of the construction period. A Natura Impact Statement (NIS) will be submitted to the Planning Authority with the Application. Permission is sought for a period of 10 years.
