Two questions were not answered. The 25 cu. m threshold is based on the 1977 legislation. Is Mr. Ó Coigligh saying the Department is solely relying on the EPA to advise on the levels? That means if the EPA were to say the data are not sufficient or the levels should be higher the Department would respond.

Will the Department publish the list and the content of the submissions made in 2018?
