Planning decision for Cork incinerator delayed for 10th time

A planning decision on a proposal to build an incinerator in Cork Harbour has been pushed out for the 10th time and could take another three months to conclude.

An Bord Pleanála was due to decide by tomorrow whether to give the go-ahead to Indaver Ireland to build a €160m, 240,000-tonnes-a-year waste-to-energy facility at Ringaskiddy, Co Cork.

A spokesman for the board confirmed to the Irish Examiner that the deadline of February 28 will not be met.
