Angry residents gathered outside the gates of the proposed site for a new AES Ireland waste management company in Portlaw, Waterford, last night, vowing not to be saddled with another industry which might create a nuisance on their doorstep.

The developers, AES Ireland Ltd, have an exemplary record at their other sites and say the key issues raised by protestors have been addressed in the planning application.
