Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

Hydraulic Fracturing: Discussion

10:20 am

Mr. Ciaran Ó hÓbáin:

That is the point of what we have outlined. There is a process in place to help to inform decision making when such an application is received. The EPA research and findings will inform the company's decision that it can carry out this work without significant adverse impacts on the environment and inform the regulator's assessment of the application through the environmental impact assessment process.
