Move to increase dumping near beach condemned
The plan by Waterford County Council to increase dumping at its landfill site close to Tramore beach has been slammed by Tramore town councillor Michael Flynn. He has mounted a campaign to stop the council from proceeding with its plans to increase dumping at the local landfill. Up to 15,000 tonnes of refuse per annum are landfilled at Tramore.
But the council plans to boost this to 22,000 from this summer due to the closure of its Dungarvan landfill.
