1.0 Introduction

The Ballybeg Composting Facility operated by Acorn Recycling, Ballybeg, Littleton, Co. Tipperary commenced waste acceptance on the 21st June 2010. The facility is a fully enclosed forced aeration in-vessel composting facility with air extraction and biofiltration. The facility is licensed by the EPA under waste licence W0249-01 for the acceptance of 45,000 tonnes per annum of a biodegradable wastes. In accordance with condition 11.12 of the licence this report is the Annual Environmental Report (AER) for 2012. The report covers the period 1st January 2012 to 31st December 2012.

2.0 Waste Activities carried out at the Facility

The facility is licensed to carry out the waste activities listed below in accordance with the third and fourth schedules of the waste management acts 1996 – 2008. The extent to which the waste activity was carried out is detailed for each activity Third Schedule Activities

- 6. Biological treatment not referred to elsewhere in this Schedule which results in final compounds or mixtures which are disposed of by means of any activity referred to in paragraphs 1 to 5 or paragraphs 7 to 10 of this Schedule (Code: D8) No wastes were accepted for treatment under this activity in 2012)

- 13. Storage prior to submission to any activity referred to in a preceding paragraph of

this Schedule, other than temporary storage, pending collection, on the premises where the waste concerned is produced (Code: D15) (Not carried out during the reporting period)

Fourth Schedule Activities

4.2 Diesel Usage Table 4. and Figure 2. below show diesel and kerosene consumption in 2012. The Diesel consumption remained fairly steady during 2012. The facility was not fully operational in Jan/Feb 2012 which explains the low diesel consumption in these months. In January 2012 kerosene fuelled power washer was installed, 1065 litres of kerosene was delivered to site in Jan2012 & this lasted 1 full year until Jan 2013. Table 4. Diesel Consumption 2012

4.3 Compost Amendment Materials 950.98 tonnes of woodchip was accepted at the facility for use in the composting process. 4.4 Water Water usage on site is minimal. A power washer is used on site to wash vehicles upon exit as well as cleaning equipment on site. Other uses on site include use in the canteen. A review of water usage on site was carried out. Following this review a new pressure washer on site was purchased. The water usage when operational is 15l min. Total estimated water usage on site is 450 litres per day.

5.0 Report on the assessment of the efficiency of use of raw materials is

processes and the reduction in waste generated.

Specific changes in operations resulted in cleaner/drier overs produced resulting in reduced woodchip use compared with 2011. Total woodchip used was 950.98 tonnes down from 1203.38 tonnes per annum in 2011. In proportion to the quantity of waste received for processing the use of woodchip was reduced from 86kg per tonne of waste received in 2011 to 48kg per tonne of waste received in 2012. The plastics produced for disposal offsite was down from 5.94% in 2011 to 5.75% in 2012 despite an increased proportion of brown bin waste in the waste received. A slight improvement in the quality of feedstock supplied by waste collectors as well as increased process efficiency resulted in this downward trend. We expect an increase in plastics production in 2013 however due to a higher volume of brown bin throughput.

6.0 Complaints Summary

There was 1 complaint made to the facility in 2012 which related to odour. A neighbour complained of experiencing odour in the vicinity of the site on 06Sept2012. Full details of all complaints are detailed in the complaints log on site.

7.0 Reported Incidents Summary

There were no incidents in 2012

8.0 Review of Nuisance Controls

Every effort is made to eliminate nuisance problems on site. Potential nuisance problems include the following; Dust: During normal operations dust has not been an issue at the site whatsoever. 3 times per year monitoring will continue and no high levels of dust have been recorded. The potential for dust arise from compost that sometimes can become very dry in the maturation area. When a trailer is being loaded with compost the shed doors must be closed down to prevent any dust emissions. Odour: The biofilter continued to operate well throughout 2012. Continuous monitoring continues as per licence requirements (See 11.4 Odour & Bioaerosols). As part of our environmental objectives and targets a full assessment of the biofilter will be carried out in 2013 with a view to establishing when the biofilter media will be replaced and what the methodology will be. Litter: No litter nuisance has occurred outside the boundary of the site. Good housekeeping has ensured that any litter present within the site is quickly removed. Work practices on site, such as all loads tipped inside the building with doors closed, ensure there is little risk of litter generation outside the building. A member of staff patrols the site to collect any litter every day. Vermin: A comprehensive pest control programme is in place whereby a specialist pest company puts out bait and monitors activity on site. Birds: Birds are not an issue at the site. All waste activities are carried out within the closed building. Noise: Noise monitoring has shown that no noise levels in excess of licence limits have been caused by noise from the facility at the noise sensitive locations. As all activities are carried out within a closed building this reduces the risk of nuisance caused by noise from the facility. There have been no complaints relating to noise from the facility.

10.0 Environmental Monitoring

10.1 Noise Monitoring Day and Night noise monitoring was carried out at the facility by an independent consultants Panther Environmental on 3rd Aug 2012. The results showed no significant noise nuisance being caused by the facility. Daytime and night noise levels at NSL1 & NSL2 above the licence limits were recorded but these were caused by high noise levels at the road and were not caused by the composting facility. There was no noise audible noise from the compost facility.

NSL1 Daytime

The dominant day-time noise source at this location is road traffic passing along the public road which was almost continuous during the busy monitoring period. Noise from the facility was not addible at this location at any time during the monitoring period. The Leq10 was high due to this almost continuous traffic during the monitoring period. The Leq90 which may be used to give an indication of the actual back-ground noise was determined to be 44 dB(A) during both surveys. Facility noise at this location does not therefore appear to constitute a nuisance, as the dominant noise source is traffic from the main road during day-time periods. NSL2 Daytime The dominant day-time noise source at this location is road traffic passing along the public road which was almost continuous during the busy monitoring period. Noise from the facility was not addible at this location at any time during the monitoring period. The Leq10 was high due to this almost continuous traffic during the monitoring period. The Leq90 which may be used to give an indication of the actual back-ground noise was determined to be 43 and 45 dB(A) during both surveys. Facility noise at this location does not therefore appear to constitute a nuisance, as the dominant noise source is traffic from the main road during day-time periods. NLS1 Night-time Noise from the facility was not addible at this location at any time during the monitoring period. The Leq10 was high due to the passing traffic during the monitoring period. The Leq90 which may be used to give an indication of the actual back-ground noise was determined to be 39 and 40 dB(A). Facility noise at this location does not therefore appear to constitute a nuisance, as the dominant noise source is traffic from the main road during day-time periods. NSL2 Night-time The dominant night-time noise source at this location is road traffic passing along the public road, although not as frequent as the day-time period. Noise from the facility was not addible at this location at any time during the monitoring period. The Leq10 was high due to the passing traffic during the monitoring period. The Leq90 which may be used to give an indication of the actual back-ground noise was determined to be 38 and 39 dB(A). Facility noise at this location does not therefore appear


10

to constitute a nuisance, as the dominant noise is traffic from the main road during day-time periods. Table 6. Noise Monitoring 2012 (NSL1/NSL2) 03rd Aug 2012. A survey was carried out twice at each location day & night
