Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 29 - Environment, Climate and Communications
Chapter 9 - Remediation of Landfill Sites

9:30 am

Mr. Mark Griffin:

The bulk of it is going to waste recovery in the Covanta plant in Poolbeg. The three other plants, including Drehid in the Deputy's constituency, Knockharley and Ballynagran are also taking in significant quantities of residual municipal solid waste. I do not have information handy to me on the lifespan of those three landfills. Perhaps Mr. Nugent can provide some information on that but we can follow up on the matter with the Deputy.
