Cork councillors unanimous in decision to oppose Indaver incinerator

After a lengthy debate in County Hall yesterday, elected members decided to draft a five-point letter outlining their reasons for objecting to the proposed project, which is the subject of a Bord Pleanala oral hearing, due to commence next Tuesday.
Main concerns of councillors are a risk of flooding at the Ringaskiddy site; risk of coastal erosion; poor road infrastructure locally; incompatibility with nearby research centres; and a threat to tourism initiatives.
