Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme (Confirmation) Order (Northern Ireland) 2004

This Order confirms and brings into operation on 31st January 2005 the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 2004 (“the 2004 Scheme”) which supplements and modifies the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1955 (“the 1955 Scheme”) (scheduled to the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1955 (Operative Date) Order (Northern Ireland) 1958) as supplemented and modified by the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1995, (scheduled to the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme (Confirmation) Order (Northern Ireland) 1999). The 2004 Scheme substitutes a new Article for Article 5 of the 1955 Scheme so that the mean level of the Lough shall now be the mean level as recorded on the systems maintained by the Department at Toome and Oxford Island on the northern and southern shores respectively of the Lough. The reference to Derryadd on the southern shore shall no longer apply.
