There have been calls on the Office of Public Works to review the €140 million flood relief plan for Cork launched in December.
Work on the project - the biggest flood relief scheme ever undertaken in this country - is due to begin before the end of the year.
But pressure group Save Cork City claims there are better solutions, and it wants the plan reviewed.
The owners of homes and businesses in Cork regularly dice with the threat of flooding.
This week saw renewed flood warnings in the area, but high tide passed without major incident.
Last December, the Office of Public Works published details of a €140 million flood relief plan for Cork.
The project aims to protect more than 2,000 homes and businesses from flooding, by creating washlands for flood waters upstream, and by constructing walls and embankments along the river's edge in the city centre.
But not everyone agrees that this is the best plan.
Save Cork City wants the OPW to review the Cork Flood Relief Scheme. But the OPW says its plan follows a decade of study and is the best way forward.
The public can make submissions on the plan until 17 February.
