The removal of gravel from the foreshore requires a licence under Section 3 of the Foreshore Act 1933. Details of how to make such an application can be found on my Department's website at the following link: http://www.environ.ie/en/Foreshore/ApplyingforaForeshoreConsent/.

A prospective applicant can request a pre-application consultation with the Marine Planning and Foreshore Section of my Department. Contact details can be found at http://www.environ.ie/en/Foreshore/.
