Development description

Rilta environmental ltd. Operates a waste transfer station for the handling of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes at site 14a geeenogue business park under planning permission sd02a/0301. The site encompasses 0.5ha and comprises a main warehouse, hazardous chemical store, offices, three covered tanker bays, a covered dispatch area and a weighbridge. The current permission authorises the acceptance, storage and packaging of 60,000 tonnes of waste comprising 27,000 tonnes of non-hazardous, commercial and industrial, construction and demolition wastes, sewage and industrial sludges, and 33,000 tonnes of hazardous waste. Rilta intends to accept, package and temporarily store air pollution control residue (apcr), before exporting it for disposal. This material will be classified as hazardous and the annual acceptance rate will be 30,000 tonnes. Apcr will make up the bulk of the 33,000 of the currently authorised hazardous waste, and it is not proposed to increase either the quantity of hazardous waste (33,000) or the overall quantity of waste (60,000 tonnes) that is currently approved. There will be no change to the waste acceptance and handling procedures. All wastes will continue to be off-loaded, packaged and stored inside the main warehouse and will not be visible from any public road contiguous or adjacent to the curtilage of the building. It is not proposed to change the operational hours and, as the apcr will replace the other hazardous wastes already approved,there will be no increase in traffic movements to and from the facility.
