Dairygold Co-op defends Cork harbour discharge

More than 100 people from around East Cork lodged objections to the proposed plant, with many citing the location of the wastewater pipe at Rathcoursey as being of particular concern.
However, engineers for Dairygold said wastewater from the Midleton municipal area and nearby industry containing fats, oils and grease (known in the industry as âFOGâ) was already entering this section of the harbour.
