Is Míse Boann - A video poem in aid of Save The Boyne campaign. 



The River Boyne is one of the finest examples of a salmon river in Ireland.
It is habitat to a variety of endangered species. 
This is recognised by making it a Special Protection Area and a Special Area of Conservation. 

The bio-diversity of the river is under ecological threat, by existing pressures and has only achieved moderate water quality status.

Now a local meat processing plant is proposing to pump 400,000l litres of waste water effluent per day into the river. 

Objections to the planning application No. 21424 can be made in writing to:
Meath County Council till the 7th of April
