Proposed development

Application description published by Cork County Council.
The development will consist of quarrying activities within the red line application area of 40.17ha of an existing permitted quarry (06/13499 and PL04.226347). Development is sought for a period of 20 years. The proposed development will comprise the extension of the existing quarry excavation area vertically by an additional 2 X 18m high benches from the current floor level of ca.4mAOD to -32mAOD and a deepening of the quarry sump from the current level of ca -22mAOD to -36mAOD within the permitted extraction footprint area of 20.2ha. The proposed development will involve the stripping of overburden and its storage for use in environmental bunds and site restoration; the extraction of rock by means of blasting, the crushing and processing of rock. The proposed development will utilise the existing quarry infrastructure and other ancillaries to complete the works. An Environmental Impact Assessment Report and Natura Impact Statement will be submitted to the planning authority with this application.
