What’s proposed
backfilling a sand and gravel pit to its original ground level using approximately 8,225,000 tonnes of imported natural inert waste materials, principally soil and stone generated by construction and development projects; Establishment and operation of an inert soil waste recovery facility to provide for the recovery through backfilling, of natural inert soil and stone waste, at a maximum rate of 500,000 tonnes per annum; Installation of site infrastructure adjacent to the pit, including a weighbridge, a shared site/weighbridge office, staff welfare facilities, a paved refueling area with hydrocarbon interceptor and equipment/sample storage facilities. Construction of a portal frame structure for a waste inspection and quarantine facility; Construction of an access ramp parallel to the southern pit face; Use of an existing internal haul road across Roadstone lands to the south (through Doran’s Pit, Co. Wicklow), between a junction with the N81 National Secondary Road and the pit; Widening of the access road into Redbog pit to provide a separate access to third party lands and the erection of a security barrier and dividing palisade fence to restrict access to the recovery facility; Progressive restoration of the backfilled landform to long-term grassland/agricultural use and installation of long term drainage/soakaway trenches. Planning permission is sought for period of up to 30 years. The proposed development requires a waste licence from the Environmental Protection Agency. An Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIAR) will be submitted to the Planning Authority in connection with the application
