Two more reports highlight Poolbeg site risks of methane gas emissions

Dublin City Council last month said the authorisation by Simon Coveney, the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government, to designate the Poolbeg West lands a strategic development zone would fast-track the development of 3,000 homes across a large part of the Poolbeg Peninsula.
The Irish Examiner last week reported on a study by a senior inspector at the Environmental Protection Agency on the potential for methane emissions still existing on parts the 34-hectare strategic development zone.
