Council backs EPA over Roadstone waste

Roadstone has estimated that more than 50,000 tonnes of waste was dumped illegally on its 600- acre site near Blessington without its knowledge or consent.

The majority of the members who attended the council meeting were sceptical about CRH's 25-page submission outlining how it could re-bury the illegal waste satisfactorily, Wicklow County Council chairman councillor Andrew Doyle said.
