This scheme, completed in 1957 involved the construction of 2 dams and ancillary works on the River Lee at Inniscarra and Carrigadrohid in County Cork. Besides the harnessing of the River Lee to produce 'green' electricity, the scheme has delivered other important benefits to the people of Cork. These included the management of flood waters, storage of water for the Cork Harbour water supply and the creation of a significant leisure amenity. However there were major social upheavals and environmental losses, examples of which were the loss of private lands and homes, the destruction of the Gearagh forests and the collapse of the prestigious wild salmon fisheries of the river. |
