1. This Scheme may be cited as the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 2010.
2. The Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1955(6) as supplemented and modified by the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1995(7) and the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 2004(8) shall have effect with the substitution of the following for Article 5, that is to say:
-�5. In this Scheme references to the level of the Lough shall be construed as references to the mean level of the Lough as recorded on the system maintained by the Department at Toomebridge on the northern shore of the Lough, at Oxford Island on the southern shore, at Loughview Road on the eastern shore and at Ardboe Point on the western shore-�.
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order confirms and brings into operation the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 2010 (-�the 2010 Scheme-�) which supplements and modifies the Lough Neagh (Levels) Scheme 1955 (-�the 1955 Scheme-�). The 2010 Scheme substitutes a new Article for Article 5 of the 1955 Scheme so that the mean level of the Lough shall now be the mean level as recorded on the systems maintained by the Department at Toomebridge and Oxford Island, on the northern and southern shores respectively, and additionally at Loughview Road and Ardboe Point on the eastern and western shores respectively of the Lough. The range of levels within which Lough Neagh is controlled will not change under the new Scheme.
