Dublin County Council has been requested to submit an environmental impact statement to the Department of the Marine in respect of its applications for a new lease of the existing reclaimed dump site and for permission to reclaim a further area of foreshore at Baleally. The statement, which is expected in the Department by the end of next month, will examine the likely environmental implications of these applications and will include the council's proposals for the containment and control of leachate.
