Anti-Dublin incinerator campaign call for all concerned to attend EPA Oral Hearing

Press release by CRAI

The Combined Residents Against the Incinerator (CRAI) is currently making presentations to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Oral Hearing on the proposed mass-burn incinerator, planned to be built by Dublin City Council on the Poolbeg Peninsula in Dublin City.

Those who oppose the incinerator can come and speak at the oral hearing if they join CRAI. There is a time allocated to CRAI membership to attend the hearing this Tuesday 6.30pm-8pm at the Gresham Hotel, O Connell St. Short Statements can also be given in writing by members and the will be read into the evidence or members can attend in person and make a statement.

CRAI held a protest at the first day of the Environmental Protection Agency's oral hearing into the proposed Dublin Incinerator on Monday April 14th. CRAI has asked Minister Gormley to expand on his recent statements that incineration is no longer government policy and clearly define what will replace incineration. If this were known the campaign believes it would be a matter of considerable influence on the outcome of this oral hearing.
To date at the oral hearing issues that have been raised include the health impact of the incinerator's nano-particles by an Italian expert on the formation and distribution of very small particles that can wreak havoc on the human and other receptor bodies, leading to long term serious illnesses like cancers, diabetes, vascular disease and many others. He also explained that it is now possible to identify the source of these very small particles so that, in future, the cause of fatal illness can be identified after death. The operation of the Public Private partnership set up to design, build and operate the facility was also questioned.

The evidence given to date will require analysis by the Chair and the EPA Board, but the general trend is that it adds strength to the argument that the proposed facility is the wrong project in the wrong place.
