Planning for the Greater Dublin Regional Drainage Project – North Dublin Treatment Plant and Orbital Sewer is being progressed by Fingal County Council.

Under the Alternative Sites Assessment and Route Selection Report (Phase 2) for the scheme, three possible treatment sites and two possible outfall locations have been identified by the Council as emerging preferred options, and a non-statutory public consultation process was carried out during 2012. I understand that the Council and the Project Team are now assessing the submissions made and hope to complete their deliberations in the first half of this year.
