Proposed development

Application description published by Limerick County Council.
A ten year permission for development on this site of c. 7 hectares located adjoining the existing Aughinish Alumina Ltd plant for the provision of a Borrow Pit with an extraction area of c. 4.5 hectares to extract c. 374.000 m³ of rock over a 10 year period. The extraction area is sought up to a maximum depth of c. 8.5 m O.D., with extraction to occur between April and September each year. The proposed development includes the demolition of a contractors shed and all ancillary site development, areas of stockpiling, landscaping and boundary treatment works above and below ground, including restoration of the extraction area. Aughinish Alumina Limited carries out an activity requiring an Industrial Pollution Prevention and Control Licence (now replaced by an Industrial Emissions Licence – Licence Register No. P0035-06). The development and operation of the proposed Borrow Pit is not a licensable activity. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be submitted to the Planning Authority with the application.
