Description of Geographical Characteristics of This Resource

The Connacht WMR is made up of Galway city and county, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo counties. The Cork Waste Management Plan covers both the county and city areas with the revised Plan being published in 2004 to cover the period 2004?2009. The residual waste is largely landfilled within the region at the council?s Youghal and Kinsale Road Landfills. Donegal?s Replacement Waste Management Plan estimated that approximately 52% of households within the region are without a collection service. The review of the Dublin Waste Management Plan began in 2004 and considered the current capacity available for the treatment of waste and what future capacity would be required to meet the Plan targets.

Resource Lineage Information

The project, entitled ?Critical Analysis of the Potential of Mechanical Biological Treatment for Irish Waste Management?, is led by Fehily Timoney and Company with assistance from project partners Rambøll (Denmark) and Veolia Environmental Services UK. The project is based on both desktop and field studies of the existing mechanical and biological treatment situation in Europe and on first-hand information provided by project partners on the operational performance of several mechanical and biological facilities across Europe and in the UK.
