Provision of ecological services to Tóchar Midlands Wetland Restoration

Department of Housing Local Government and Heritage

Tóchar Midlands Wetland Restoration seeks proposals for the provision of ecological services to support the delivery of project outputs for the restoration of wetland habitats within the EU Just Transition Territory in Ireland. The Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage (DHLGH) was awarded funding of €12m from the EU Just Transition Fund 2021-2027 for a wetlands restoration scheme in Ireland’s Just Transition Fund (JTF) territory. Named the Tóchar Midlands Wetland Restoration Scheme, it is supporting a set of actions for wetlands restoration in a distinct area comprising all of counties Westmeath, Longford, Roscommon, Laois, and Offaly and parts of Galway, Kildare and Tipperary. The geographical area has a rich wetlands and peatlands heritage, notably of raised bogs, fens and callows. Tóchar will run until June 2027. It is managed by a small multi-disciplinary Project Team, under the direction of the National Parks and Wildlife Service, with offices in Birr, Co. Offaly. Tóchar is working across a large number of wetland sites, including fens, callows, blanket bogs, alluvial woodland, state-owned and privately owned. This particular contract will support the overall project in general, with a particular focus on wetland sites that come into the project via expressions of interest calls or via regional NPWS staff.
