Waterways Ireland advises masters and owners of vessels on the Shannon Navigation that a water quality monitoring buoy will be deployed on the western side of Lough Derg close to the entrance to Dromaan Harbour in Co Clare this week.
The monitoring buoy will be yellow in colour and be approximately three metres in height. The buoy will remain in position for up to four years.
Masters of vessels are requested to navigation with additional caution in the vicinity of the buoy.
