Cork harbour incinerator hearing to last weeks

An oral hearing into proposals to build a massive incinerator in Cork Harbour is expected to take at least three weeks to complete.

Thousands of people have made objections to Indaver’s plans to build a €160m incinerator in Ringaskiddy. An Bord Pleanála plans to start the public hearing on the matter on April 19 at the Carrigaline Court Hotel.

The plan is surrounded in controversy and so too is the date for the start of the inquiry.
