The Local Authority Waters Programme, known as LAWPRO is linking up with the Galway Bay Southeast catchment area of Galway and Clare to improve water quality.
LAWPRO is a national shared service working on behalf of all the local authorities to achieve good water quality.

This would be part of a wider initiative nationally to develop public participation in the next River Basin Management plan.
