1 INTRODUCTION
Licensee: St. James‟s Gate Brewery
Location of Activity: St. James‟s Gate, Dublin 8
Licence Register Number: P0301-01
The St. James‟s Gate Brewery (SJGB) is based in Dublin at National Grid Reference 3392 E,
1430 N. It covers an area circa 24 hectares.
The Brewery was granted an Integrated Pollution Control (IPC) licence on the 4th
July 2000.
This licence was converted to an Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) Licence
on 9th
November 2005 through the addition of Amendment A to the licence.
Condition 2.9.2 requires the Brewery to prepare an Annual Environmental Report (AER) for
submission to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
This report, in compliance with condition 2.9.2 of the IPPC licence, details the environmental
performance at the site for the period January to December 2010 and has been prepared in
accordance with the Guidance Note for Annual Environmental Reports, published in October
2000.
1.1 Description of Activity
1.1.1 St. James’s Gate Brewery
The Brewery is engaged in the brewing of stout for the UK, Irish, mainland Europe and North
American market. Following the closure of the Guinness Park Royal Brewery in London in
mid-2005, all UK stout production was transferred to St. James‟s Gate. As a consequence the
St. James‟s Gate site underwent a capacity expansion programme during 2005.
Stout is produced using traditional brewing materials: malt, barley, roast barley, hops, water and
yeast.
In the Brewhouse, malt and barley are milled into coarse flour (grist), keeping the barley husk
material as intact as possible. The milled grist is then mixed with hot water in a process known
as mashing, in which the starches in the malt are converted into fermentable sugars.
The porridge-like mash is transferred to a kieve and the sweet wort is filtered off to a third
vessel, the kettle.
In the kettle, hop extract is added and the wort is boiled. The hops are used to give bitterness,
aroma, flavour and some preservative value to the beer, while roast barley provides the unique
colour and some of the flavour components of Stout.
After boiling in the kettle the wort is decanted and pumped, with cooling en route, to the
Fermentation Plant.
The Fermentation Plant receives chilled stout wort directly from the Brewhouse. Yeast is added
to carry out the primary fermentation, converting the sugars in the wort into alcohol and carbon

dioxide, which is a by-product of the fermentation process. Afterwards, stout is centrifuged to
remove the yeast and the green beer is matured in Maturation Vessels, clarified and blended to
Bright Beer Tanks for subsequent packaging in the Keg Plant or despatch in bulk from the Tank
Station.
In the Keg Plant, beer from Bright Beer Tanks is pasteurised before racking into four sizes of
kegs (60, 50, 30 and 20 litres) for distribution to the domestic and export markets or is
dispatched in bulk via tankers to packaging sites within Guinness Supply in Ireland and UK.
In July 2010, kegging of all stout ales and lagers in the Island of Ireland Diageo portfolio was
transferred from the St. Francis Abbey Brewery, Kilkenny, and the Great Northern Brewery,
Dundalk, to the St. James‟s Gate Brewery. High gravity beer is now blended, nitrogenated
and carbonated en route from the Fermentation Plant to the Keg Plant. As a result of the
consolidation of keg plant operations, the logistics operations were reorganised to cater for
the increase in activity.
Beer is produced 24 hours per day and 365 days per year. There are 40 people currently
employed at the Brewery in production units.
1.1.2 Beverage Blending Agents Plant
The Plant consists of a Brewhouse, evaporation/concentration unit, a storage tank farm and a
packaging facility. It is designed to produce a concentrate, which is exported to over 50
countries worldwide. The concentrate is produced using malt, roast barley, yeast, hops and
water. It will go on to produce bottle, canned and draught products wherever Guinness stout
is sold.
The product is exported in Unitanks, flexitanks and road tankers via Dublin port.
1.2 Management Structures
The St. James‟s Gate Brewery is part of Diageo Global Supply, which in turn is a subsidiary
of Diageo plc.
The Brewery has a structured management approach to the operation of the business in terms
of product quality, environment, process control, safety, training and analytical capability.
Management systems for quality, environment, energy, safety, food safety and training are
audited on an on-going basis through internal audits and external third-party surveillance
audits.
Registration to specific management systems has been achieved as follows:
ISO 9001: 2008 Quality Management 2009
ISO 14001 Environmental Management 2008
EN 16001:2009 Energy Management Standard 2009

2 SUMMARY INFORMATION
2.1 Self Monitoring Data
Except where otherwise stated, summary information is provided for the period from January
2010 to December 2010 inclusive, as specified in the EPA‟s Guidance Note for Annual
Environmental Reports. The information is presented in line with the Guidance Note as an
annualised mass emission figure, derived from the average measured mass emission value
multiplied by the duration of the emission.
2.1.1 Emissions to Sewer
The following sub-sections present the Brewery‟s self monitoring data for emissions to sewer
at the three emission points (SE-1, SE-2 and SE-3) during 2010.
2.1.1.1 Overview
There are three licensed emission points to sewer from the site: SE-1, SE-2 and SE-3. The
discharge from SE-1 consists of process effluent and surface water run-off and is screened
and then pH-adjusted in the on-site Effluent Neutralisation Plant before being discharged to
the Dublin City Council sewer for final treatment in the Ringsend Wastewater Treatment
Plant. In late 2005, the process emission from SE-2 was diverted to the Effluent
Neutralisation Plant, ultimately discharging via SE-1. The discharge of process emissions
from SE-3 was also discontinued in late 2005 and only surface water run-off has been
discharged from this point since then.
In November 2009, the Brewery submitted a proposal to the Agency to reduce the frequency
of monitoring at SE-2 and SE-3 from daily to monthly. In December 2009, the Agency
agreed to this proposal and therefore from 2010 onwards the monitoring frequency for SE-2
and SE-3 has been reduced to a monthly frequency.
Samples from all three emission points are collected on a 24-hour flow-proportional
composite basis and are monitored for the parameters set out in Table 1.

Note 1: Compliance is assessed in accordance with Condition 3.3.2 of the licence.
The non-compliances shown in Table 5 were attributable to a combination of factors,
including our reduction in effluent flow arising from our water usage reduction initiatives,
which results in higher concentration effluent; and production activities (e.g. accidental
release of small quantities of product). There were no non-compliances in relation to BOD
load.
A number of initiatives under the Effluent Reduction Programme continued in 2010.
Figure 5 shows the average daily BOD concentration since 2002 and Figure 6 shows the
average daily BOD load since 2002.

2.1.2 Emissions to Water
There is a single licensed emission point to water from the site, SW-1, which discharges to
the River Liffey. Up to March 2007, this emission point discharged cooling water which
originated from an underground well at the site. However, in March 2007, the discharge of
cooling water ceased and since then only surface water has been discharged via an interceptor
at SW-1.
The licence requires that flow, temperature and pH are monitored on a continuous basis; that
BOD and COD are monitored on a monthly basis; that suspended solids, sulphates (as SO4),
fats, oils and grease, detergents (as MBAS), ammoniacal nitrogen, total oxidised nitrogen,
total phosphorus (as P) and heavy metals are monitored on a quarterly basis; and that
pesticides and biocides are monitored annually at SW-1.
In addition, the licence requires monitoring at two locations in the river upstream (ASW-2)
and downstream (ASW-3) of SW-1.
However, since there is no longer any process emission to surface water from SW-1,
monitoring at this location has been discontinued. The Brewery continues to carry out
monitoring at the two ambient monitoring locations (ASW-2 and ASW-3) in accordance with
the conditions set out in the licence. The results of this monitoring are summarised in Table
12.

2.1.3 Emissions to Atmosphere
The following subsections summarise the emissions to atmosphere from our licensed
emission points at the Combined Heat & Power Plant (A1-3, A1-4, A1-5, A1-6 and A1-7),
the afterburners in the Roasthouse (A2-1 and A2-2) and the grain intake area (A2-3, A2-4 and
A2-5).
2.1.3.1 Combined Heat & Power Plant
There are three main emission points associated with the three CHP turbines (A1-3, A1-4 and
A1-5), each of which is monitored for Nitrogen Oxides (as NO2) on an annual basis. There is
also a bypass stack on Turbine 1 (A1-6) and a stand-by boiler (A1-7), which are also
monitored for Nitrogen Oxides on an annual basis.
Monitoring of the emissions from emission points A1-3, A1-4, A1-5, A1-6 and A1-7 was
carried out in March 2010. Table 13 summarises the monitoring results.

Note 2: A1-6 is the bypass stack on Turbine 1 (A1-3) and only operates at low load.
There were no non-compliances of emissions to atmosphere from the CHP plant during 2010,
with an overall reduction in NOX mass emissions of approximately 10%, compared to 2009.
Table 14 summarises the performance of the CHP plant during 2010.

2.2 Monitoring and Enforcement
2.2.1 Agency Site Audit
On 26th
February 2010, the Agency carried out an Audit at the site. The Agency‟s Audit
Report of 31st May 2010 identified four non-compliances in relation to the conditions of the
licence, and a total of five observations. The Brewery responded to the Agency‟s Audit
Report on 16th
June, setting out corrective actions for each of the non-compliances and
observations, including the target date for completion and the status of the actions that had
already been closed out.
2.2.2 Agency Monitoring – Emissions to Sewer
The Agency visited the site in March, May, August and November 2010 and collected grab
samples from emission points SE-1, SE-2 and SE-3. The results of these grab samples are
summarised in Table 18, with the corresponding results from the Brewery‟s analysis also
shown. At the time of preparing this AER, the results from the Agency for the samples
collected in August and November had not been received by the Brewery.
All of the results determined by the EPA, the Brewery laboratory and the Third Party
laboratory were below their respective limits set out in the licence. While there is some
variation between the results obtained by the EPA and those from the Brewery‟s monitoring
programme, in general the two sets of results are consistent with one another.
In September 2002, the Brewery joined the EPA laboratory inter-calibration scheme. Results
to date for the Brewery in the scheme have indicated that the Brewery is analysing at the
same level versus its peers in the scheme.

Overall energy usage fell in 2010 compared to 2009. A focused energy efficiency
programme, coupled with the on-going implementation of the Energy Management System
drove the decrease in energy usage on the site. A number of energy efficiency projects were
delivered in 2010, and this programme will continue into 2011.
2.3.2 Water Consumption
Water (Town and Service) is supplied to the site by Dublin City Council. Town (Potable)
Water is used during the brewing process. Service Water is used in fire hoses and other
ancillary activities.
Historically, cooling water has been drawn from an underground well on site; however, since
March 2007 this cooling water has no longer been in use, with the cooling water replaced by
an alternative cooling medium. Water consumption at the site is summarised in Table 22.

2.4 Environmental Incidents and Complaints
2.4.1 Environmental Incidents
Table 23 summarises the environmental incidents that occurred during 2010, setting out the
cause and corrective action, and identifying the relevant authorities that were notified of the
incident.
A total of 51 incidents occurred during 2010, 24 of which arose due to higher than normal
temperatures at SE-1. As a result of successfully implementing a number of initiatives to
reduce water usage at the site over the last number of years, the cooling buffering capacity at
SE-1 has been reduced. A team has been established to identify and assess the options for
recovering heat from the high temperature sources, primarily the hot medium used in the
cleaning programmes. The team is also investigating the potential for temperature quenching
prior to effluent entering the Waste Water Treatment plant.

On 18th
July, a fault occurred on the pH probe at SE-3.
The probe was replaced and returned to normal
operation. A grab sample taken during the period
showed that the licence limit was not exceeded.
On 26th

EPA
August 7 Between 6th
and 7th
August, the temperature at SE-1
exceeded 42°C intermittently, with a maximum
recorded temperature of 44°C. During this period,
restrictions on the water supply to the Brewery due to
a leak in the Dublin City Council water supply
resulted in a lower effluent flow and therefore a lower
cooling effect on the small volumes of hot condensate
generated during the brewing process. The burst
water main was repaired.
On 10th
August, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C, with a maximum recorded temperature of 43°C.
The cause was attributed to two processes that release
hot liquid to drain coinciding with a fault with a valve
in the CHP plant, which caused a boiler blow down.
The valve in the CHP plant was repaired and the
brewing programme was reviewed to prevent two
brewing processes occurring simultaneously.
On 15th
August, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C intermittently, with a maximum recorded
temperature of 44°C. This was attributed to a fault
with the evaporator which resulted in larger volumes
of hot condensate being released to drain. The
evaporator was taken out of service and repaired.
On 19th
August, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C, with a maximum recorded temperature of 44°C.
This was caused by a small overflow from the warm
and hot water storage tanks, for which corrective
actions were taken.
On 21st and 22
nd August, the temperature at SE-1
exceeded 42°C intermittently, with maximum
recorded temperatures of 43.7°C and 46.8°C,
respectively. An investigation identified the causes to
be the warmer ambient temperatures combined with
high temperatures used during routine plant cleaning.
The monthly mean BOD concentration at SE-1
exceeded the licence limit (2,715 mg/l -v- 2,500 mg/l).
Two losses of beer during the month, due to a pump
and a valve failure, contributed to the higher than
normal concentration. In both cases, the equipment
was replaced.

September 6 On 11th
September, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C. The cause was attributed to the release of
excess hot condensate coinciding with routine
cleaning. A low effluent flow reduced the overall
cooling buffering capacity.
On 12th
September, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C. The cause was attributed to an inefficient heat
exchanger on the evaporator. A new plate pack was
ordered and subsequently installed.
On 13th
September, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C. The cause was attributed to the fault with the
heat exchanger (from above) combined with draining
of hot water from the boiler in the CHP plant as part of
its normal start-up process.
On 15th
September, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C, caused by the fault with the heat exchanger
(from above).
On 15th
September, the in-line pH probe at SE-2
recorded high pH levels, with a maximum reading of
11.2. No process drains discharge via SE-2. A CCTV
survey was conducted to identify the drains that
discharge via SE-2.
The monthly mean BOD concentration exceeded the
licence limit (2,594 mg/l -v- 2,500 mg/l) caused by a
loss of product to drain due to a fault with the flow
meter and evaporator. Both items were repaired.

release of excess hot condensate to drain was
commenced.
On 2nd
October, the temperature at SE-1 exceeded
42°C from 16.40 until 17.51. No specific cause was
identified, other than normal process cleaning which
was underway at the time.
On 4th
October, the temperature at SE-1 was elevated
from 00.38 until 01.23. The maximum temperature
recorded during this period was 45.1°C. A normal
stream-cleaning programme in the Brewhouse was
underway at the time using hot caustic, which was
found to be the cause of the elevated temperature.
The in-line pH probe at SE-2 failed on 5th
October.
The failure arose from a loose electrical connection
during routine cleaning of the probe. The connection
was repaired and the probe returned to service.

November 2 The in line pH probe at SE-1 gave erratic readings on
1st November. The pH probe was cleaned and the
readings returned to normal. A second, backup, in-
line pH probe showed that during the period of erratic
readings, the pH was within the emission limit value.
The monthly mean BOD concentration exceeded the
licence limit (2,758 mg/l -v- 2,500 mg/l), caused by a
loss of product to drain from a fault with a valve and
freezing of equipment due to the adverse cold weather.
The valve was repaired and the options for preventing
future freezing of equipment are being assessed.

December 5 On 10th
December, the pH probe at SE-2 recorded a
high pH level for a period of 30 minutes. The cause
was investigated and was attributed to the large
volume of melting snow at the time.
On 11th
December, a fault occurred on the in-line pH
probe at SE-1, which incorrectly recorded low pH
results. The backup pH probe was used to monitor
pH, which showed the pH level to be within the
licence limits. The probe was repaired and replaced.
On 16th
December, a fault occurred on the continuous
pH and temperature probes at SE-1, resulting in a loss
of readings. The fault was caused by a blown fuse,
which was replaced. The composite samples for the
period met the licence limits.
As a result of the adverse cold weather, no composite
sample could be taken at SE-1 between 25th
and 27th
December. The automatic pH probe wash at SE-1 also
froze, resulting in irregular pH readings between 26th
and 27th
December.
On 28th
December, the suspended solids concentration
exceeded the licence limit (3,540, mg/l -v- 1,400 mg/l)
due to the use of grit on the roadways at the site during
the adverse cold weather and the increase in surface
water following a leak in the water main.

2.4.2 Environmental Complaints
In 2010, there were six incidents at the Brewery that gave rise to complaints. Table 24
summarises the complaints received, the identified cause and the corrective actions taken.
Table 24: Summary of Complaints Received in 2010
Date Complaint Cause Corrective Action
25/01/2010 A complaint was received
from a local resident in
relation to a noise from the
rear of the spent grain yard.
The source of the noise was
identified as an auger on one
of the dust skips.
The skip was removed from
service and was subsequently
removed from the site for
repair by the supplier. The
skip was returned to the site
and to service once it was
repaired.
26/05/2010 A complaint was received
from a local resident in
relation to a noise from the
rear of the spent grain yard.
The source of the noise was
identified as an auger on one
of the dust skips.
The skip was removed from
service and was subsequently
removed from the site for
repair by the supplier. The
supplier set out the actions
required to prevent a
recurrence of this noise and
the skip was returned to the
site and to service once it
was repaired.
13/07/2010 A complaint was received
from a local resident
regarding noise levels from
the spent grain yard.
Upon investigation, no noise
source was identified.
The complaint was closed to
the satisfaction of the
complainant following
communication of the
Brewery‟s investigation and
the outcome.
23/07/2010 A complaint was received
from residents in the
apartments adjacent to the
site, relating to noise
emanating from the CHP
plant.
The source of the noise was
identified as the lifting of a
pressure relief valve on the
CHP plant which, in turn,
was attributed to a power
outage in the vicinity of the
site.
The relief valve returned to
normal operation following
the restoration of power to
the area. The operators of
the CHP plant investigated
the root cause of the
activation to prevent a
recurrence.
09/12/2010 A complaint was received
from a local resident relating
to a „banging‟ noise from the
spent grain yard.
Due to the extremely cold
weather at the time, the slide
valves controlling the
transfer of grain to the
production area had frozen.
To free the valves, the
maintenance team had
„banged‟ the valves and the
vessels.
The maintenance teams were
reminded to consider the
effect of their actions and the
Brewery‟s responsibilities to
its neighbours in relation to
noise.
19/12/2010 A complaint was received
from a local resident about a
loud banging coming from
the spent grain yard
The cause was found to be a
faulty gearbox in one of the
dust skips.
The skip was taken out of
service and the gearbox was
repaired.

3 MANAGEMENT OF THE ACTIVITY
3.1 Environmental & Energy Management Plan
St. James‟s Gate Brewery is certified to the International Standard for Environmental
Management Systems (ISO 14001), and to the Energy Management System standard
EN 16001. The Environmental & Energy Management Plan for 2011 is a combined plan
covering both Environmental and Energy targets. It defines a set of objectives and targets for
the company to work towards. Of its nature, it is liable to alteration in the light of changing
circumstances and the company‟s future plans. It is also subject to revision from time to time
and proposals, plans, targets and goals may vary accordingly. Therefore, progress on a
particular objective or target is subject to change. Progress on the objectives and targets
achieved during the previous year is reported in the Annual Environmental Report.
In addition to the EEMP, a Register of Opportunities (or Ideas Log) is maintained for
potential Energy Usage reduction initiatives. The process by which ideas are generated,
sourced, captured, reviewed and assessed for progression is shown in Figure 10.

Diageo Ireland
Licence Register No. P0301-01 40 March 2011
Objective 1.0
To protect soil, surface waters and groundwater from pollution.
Rationale
Specific requirements relating to the protection of groundwater and surface water are contained in Guinness Ireland‟s (St. James‟s Gate Brewery) IPPC
Licence Reg. No. P0301-01.
No. Target Time scale Comment
1.1 To carry out a comprehensive
hydrogeological monitoring programme for
the site to identify any soil and groundwater
contamination.
Ongoing until October 2010
and then review with the
Agency.
The long-term monitoring programme that had been agreed with the Agency
has been implemented. This involves quarterly sampling of the groundwater on
site for a suite of parameters.
Variations in concentrations between sampling rounds occurs for all parameters,
although there are no obvious trends for any parameter.
1.2 To undertake a programme of remedial work
on foul sewer pipelines and storage tanks.
December 2010 Remediation work recommended as part of the Phase 1 CCTV survey is on-
going, as access to drains in production areas are made available. Phase 2 (of 3)
of the CCTV survey is complete and Phase 3 is underway. Recommendations
from Phase 2 and Phase 3 will be initiated on receipt of the final report.
1.3 To protect soil, surface waters and
groundwater from contamination from
materials stored on the site.
Ongoing The planned approach to bund integrity testing was signed off in December
2010. Integrity testing of bunds under this approach commenced in January
2011, and will be undertaken on a phased process.
1.4 To improve the identification of the foul
sewer system from the surface water
drainage system.
December 2010 A review of the site drainage system was undertaken. Approximately 1,200
manholes and 800 gullies were identified. The project proposal to colour code
all manholes is currently being developed by the Business Engineering
Department.

Objective 2.0 To improve control of air emissions from the site.
Rationale Conditions 5 and 11 of Guinness Ireland‟s (St. James‟s Gate Brewery) IPPC Licence requires the company to prepare proposals for the reduction of
certain emissions to atmosphere and prepare air quality monitoring programmes.
No. Target Time scale Comment
2.1 Continue to monitor emissions of nitrogen
oxide from the CHP plant.
Ongoing
Air monitoring is carried out as per licence and emissions of nitrogen oxide
have remained below the emission limit value set out in the licence.
2.2 To sustain the improved ratio of CO2
recovery to enable the site to sell maximise
the sale of excess CO2 per annum.
December 2010
Since July 2010, the Great Northern Brewery and St Francis Abbey Brewery no
longer require CO2. Fermentation control has been maximised and the
installation of an additional meter has improved quantification of secondary
CO2.
2.3 To reduce the Environmental impact of
employees travelling to work.
December 2010
The cycle to work scheme was successfully rolled out in 2010.

Licence Register No. P0301-01 42 March 2011
Objective 3.0 To implement the site Waste Management Strategy 2006-2007.
Rationale In line with European and Irish waste management policy Guinness is striving to introduce the prevention and reduction of waste as far as practical.
Condition 8.3 of Guinness Ireland‟s IPC Licence (Reg. No. P0301-01) required the company to develop and maintain a site management record.
No. Target Time scale Comment
3.1 To ensure that the situation achieved in
2004-2009 of zero waste to landfill is fully
maintained.
Ongoing St James Gate continues to strive to achieve zero waste to landfill. The
GreenIQ team rolled out waste segregation site wide in non-production areas.
A programme of communication ran in tandem to increase employee awareness.
Communication tools, such as Insight Magazine and the Facilities newsletter,
have been used to promote the programme. An Environmental day was held in

Diageo Ireland
Licence Register No. P0301-01 43 March 2011
Objective 4.0 To improve the management and control of effluent discharges from the site.
Rationale: Condition 6 of Guinness Ireland‟s IPPC Licence (Ref. No. P0301-01) requires the monitoring and management of effluent discharges from the site.
No. Target Time scale Comment
4.1 To further reduce the effluent load from the
Brewing areas to sustain improvements.
FBP area to target 0.29 kg BOD/hl and
Brewhouse to target 0.12 kg BOD/hl.
December 2010 Potential losses from vessel and line push-outs were minimised in the Brewing
areas. Diageo reviewed its brewing practices in Ireland and in July 2010
kegging activities from all sites in Ireland were consolidated at St James Gate.
Management of returned beer for Ireland was also centralised at St James Gate.
As a result of the increase in beer volumes and beer types, the effluent load
increased. Work is on-going to identify the sources of the increased effluent.
In-line effluent samplers were removed from the drains to facilitate drain repair
and therefore the BOD loads for specific areas are not available. The KPIs will
be agreed with the brewing areas for 2011.
4.2 Manage effluent emissions from the Keg
Plant to maintain the performance achieved
in 2008 of less than 0.045 kg BOD/hl.
December 2010 Keg plant activities changed significantly in 2010 as a result of the kegging
consolidation. An increase in the number of product changeovers has increased
the effluent from push-outs. A project team is reviewing push-outs to minimise
losses to drain.
4.3 To monitor and utilise the real time
information available relating to effluent
performance.
December 2010 Effluent is monitored using two TOC meters. High BOD concentrations trigger
an alert to the shift mangers, prompting investigations into potential leaks.
4.4 Establish a baseline for GFE 2effluent flow
to help reduce the level of process waste in
the BBA area.
December 2010 Push-outs in the BBA were optimised to reduce process waste.
4.5 To reduce the effluent load from the BBA
department.
December 2010 Raw materials usage was optimised to reduce the effluent from the process.
Maximum extraction without adverse effect on quality was achieved.

Note 2: Not detected.
Note 3: The actual specific noise level at the Presbytery is calculated to be 3 dB(A) lower than the measured
level, taking into account façade effect sound build up.
Condition 9.3 of the licence requires that activities on-site shall not give rise to noise levels
off-site, at noise sensitive locations, which exceed the following sound pressure limits, subject
to Condition 3 of this licence:
Daytime: 55 dB(A) Leq, 30 minutes
Night-time: 45 dB(A) Leq, 15 minutes
Locations 1 to 7 in Table 25 are designated as Noise Sensitive Locations. Due to the location
of the Brewery within a city centre, noise levels measured at these locations may not all be
attributable to site activity. Therefore, the noise survey identifies the specific noise level
which is the noise that is attributable to activities at the site. The specific noise level is used
as the basis for determining compliance with the limits set out in the licence.
The results of the 2010 survey indicate that the daytime noise limit of 55 dB(A) was
complied with at each of the seven Noise Sensitive Locations (locations 1 to 7). The results
also indicate that the night-time noise limit of 45 dB(A) was complied with at locations 1, 4,
5 and 6, but that is was exceeded at locations 2, 3 and 7. There were no tonal or impulsive
components to the noise measured at any of the Noise Sensitive Locations.

4.1.2 Noise Reduction Programme
During 2010, two areas were identified for acoustic screening to further reduce the noise
impact from the site. The two areas were:
The extract fan at first floor level of the roasthouse building.
The external equipment at the northwest corner of GFE1 (the „blow-down pot‟).
The screening in these areas was completed during 2010 and the actions taken to reduce the
noise arising from these areas were identified and implemented.
As part of the Brewery‟s continuous Noise Reduction Programme, the following areas of the
Brewery will be targeted for noise assessment and, where identified, noise reduction during
2011:
A detailed noise survey in the Spent Grain Yard, to identify the key areas and
equipment causing noise in the area.
Noise modelling in the logistics yard on the lower level to identify the areas for noise
reduction/improvement.

4.2 Testing and Inspection of Underground Tanks and Pipelines
4.2.1 Bunding
A bund integrity survey was completed in late 2006. A total of 130 bunds and bunded areas
were inspected and data sheets for each area were compiled. Twenty-one priority items and
forty-one other actions were identified from the survey, with the remedial work completed in
2007.
As part of the bund integrity programme, bund integrity tests commenced in 2007 and were
completed in 2008. During 2009, the bund data sheets were reviewed and updated in light of
changes in their use in recent years.
In 2010, the bund integrity testing programme was reviewed and updated. The next round of
testing will commence in 2011.
4.2.2 Pipelines
In 1995, the Brewery embarked on an extensive programme of inspection of the underground
effluent pipelines within the St. James‟s Gate Brewery site. Subsequently, a significant
programme of remediation and repair work was instigated and this has been completed. This
repair work focused primarily on upgrading large sections of internal sub-floor drainage,
which at the time was found to be defective. (Reference: report 1890-50-RP-001; PM Ltd.).
An additional programme of inspection and testing, directed at the external underground
pipeline network and underground tanks, has also been undertaken.
To facilitate the work, the site was divided into eight zones. During 2002, inspection and
testing was completed on five of the zones and the remaining three zones were completed in
2003. The compilation of the detailed report commenced in December 2003 and was
completed in February 2004. The report identified 100 sewer lines and 105 manholes that
were in need of remedial work and this work commenced in 2005.
The purpose of the drainage and remediation works is to secure the process effluent drainage
system in order to protect the receiving environment of the River Liffey and to allow the site
to function in an efficient compliant manner in terms of its requirements under the IPPC
licence and statutory legislation. Furthermore, the site must remain operational during the
course of the remedial works, and therefore it is proposed to use non-invasive renovation
options where possible.
During 2009, Phase 1 of the remedial works programme on the foul sewer pipelines was
completed, which included a survey of all of the manholes previously identified. Phase 2 of
the programme was developed during 2010, which included a CCTV survey and completion
of additional remedial works identified during Phase 1. Approximately 70% of the remedial
work was completed during 2010; the remainder is scheduled for completion during 2011 as
production areas become available to gain access to the drains in these areas.
The report on the remediation works completed under Phase 2 will be completed during
2011. The CCTV survey under Phase 3 of the programme will take place during the second
quarter of 2011.

4.3 Hydrogeological Investigation
In compliance with Condition 10.3.3 of the licence, a hydrogeological investigation of the
site took place between November 2005 and January 2006. Soil samples and groundwater
samples were collected, the results were reviewed, and a submission made to the Agency
regarding ongoing monitoring.
A programme of quarterly sampling for a range of potential contaminants was agreed with
the Agency. Following the monitoring programme in 2008, O‟Neill Groundwater
Engineering (OGE), the contractor carrying out the monitoring programme, recommended
that the frequency of the programme be reduce from quarterly to biannually. This biannual
programme was carried out in June and November 2010.
During the June 2010 monitoring round, elevated pH, temperature and conductivity were
recorded at MW8 and was notified to the Agency as outlined in Table 23. Additional
monitoring was undertaken at this location and an investigation and remediation programme
was initiated, which will continue during 2011.
The conclusions from the latest monitoring round (November 2010) are set out below (from
OGE Report No. 0411002).
The results from the heavy metal sampling indicate an improvement over June 2010.
The elevated levels of Mineral Oils and DROs from MW1 are anomalous.
Overall, the PAH concentrations are reducing.
The remedial works on the well heads appears to have addressed the issue of surface
runoff potentially contaminating the sample point.
MW8 continues to be the subject of a separate investigation.
In OGE‟s opinion the concentrations of many of the parameters are at or below
background levels. Continued monitoring during 2011 should establish the
background value ranges for many of the parameters. Seasonal effects may also
become apparent as the water table rises and falls in response to recharge.
