Council in row with Navy over gunfire

Cobh Town Council is writing to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) demanding it monitor what the local authority claims is “unacceptably high noise levels” coming from the Naval Service’s firing range at Haulbowline.
Councillors supported the motion by Cllr Sean O’Connor (Ind) who said he had received a number of complaints from people in the area and had personally heard the gunfire.
