What’s proposed

The proposed development will consist of: the deepening of the existing permitted limestone, sand and gravel quarry by 20 metres (i.e. 1 no. extractive bench), which will extend the existing quarry below the water table level and extend the life of the quarry by approximately 15 no. years; the provision of an infiltration pond system for managing the groundwater generated (including 1 no. attenuation pond, 2 no. settlement lagoons, and 1 no. infiltration pond, together with maintenance access road and perimeter fencing); a westward realignment and widening of the existing private access road adjoining the site with new entrance onto the east-west public road to the north (LP3619-0); the existing private road access point to public road (LP3619-0) to be revised to provide private entrance to public road for lands adjacent to residential property adjoining the road; the waiving of Condition No.2 of An Bord Pleanala Ref. No. PL04.203762 (Planning Reg. Ref. 02/5476), to allow for the continuance of use of the quarry together with the asphalt plant and ancillary site works as permitted. The proposed development will not result in any increase in either the permitted area of the existing quarry void or the permitted output rate of the existing quarry, which is proposed to be maintained at a rate of 250,000 tonnes per annum. The proposed development will utilize the existing on-site haul road from the site entrance adjacent to the asphalt plant and proceed one-way around the south/west of the lagoon to a proposed two-way haulage ramp, which will extend from the southern boundary of the proposed extractive area. Traffic is proposed to exit from here one-way via the north east of the lagoon towards the site exit. The proposed development will also include landscaping, reduced screening berms to a minimum of 5 metres high at the northern boundary and all other site development works above and below ground, including a new restoration plan for the final quarry void
