“This is to coincide with the equinoctial spring tides which is the lowest tide level of the year and is the best time for the work to take place,” said the council.

According to their official announcement, this is essential work to ensure the safe operation of the RNLI Lifeboat, the ability of the lifeboat to affect a rescue and for the safety of those at sea.

All necessary and appropriate Covid-19 protocols will be strictly adhered throughout the process.

The work will be supervised by Donegal County Council.
