Proposed development
SUBMISSIONS TO BE MADE DIRECTLY TO An Coimisiun Pleanala - Strategic Infrastructure Development Planning Application to An Coimisiun Pleanala for permission for the establishment and operation of a soil recovery facility. The facility will import approximately 2,160,000 tonnes imported inert waste, principally from development sites, which will be used to progressively infill a deep sided valley and raise ground levels up to a height of approximately 57mOD to tie in with surrounding land ground levels. The proposed development will take place within a total site area of 17.08 hectares (ha). The infill area extent is approximately 14 ha. The infilled valley will be progressively restored to agricultural grassland / hedgerow habitat, similar to that which existed prior to the proposed development. The lands will be returned to agricultural use. The following temporary facilities will be installed and maintained during the life of the soil recovery facility: office and welfare facilities; weighbridge and associated weighbridge cabin; 1 no. wheel wash, 1 no. spray system wheel wash; 6 no. parking bays; 2 no. waste inspection bays and 1 no. bunded waste quarantine area; hardstanding area (vehicle movement and storage); and, surface water drainage infrastructure from hard standing and discharge to ground (including 2 no. interceptors and 2 no. soakaways), an internal access road, internal haul roads (constructed from recycled aggregates where available), security features including security gates and fencing. The existing land entrance located on R772 will be upgraded and will be retained following the completion of the proposed development. Hedgerow removed from the field boundary opposite the existing land entrance to facilitate sightlines will be replanted following the completion of the proposed development.
