Re: Reg. No. A0369-01, Aglish Waste Water Discharge License.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I refer to our letter of 14th December , 2010 regarding Waste Water Discharge License application for Aglish, Co. Waterford.

(1) We have assessed the likelihood of significant effects of the waste water discharges from the agglomeration on the relevant European sites by referring to Circular

L8/08, issued by Department Forof inspectionEnvironment, purposes only. Heritage and Local Government and Consent of copyright owner required for any other use. have concluded that there will be no significant effects and it is therefore not necessary according to L8/08 to assess the impacts.

The agglomeration is small with a population of 450 p.e.. The closest SPA is the Blackwater Estuary which is approx. three Kilometers away. The Goish Rivers flows in to the Blackwater SPA. We are satisfied that the river has more than sufficient dilution to take the treated effluent from this agglomeration. We have recently spent a considerable amount of money in providing a new sewerage treatment plant for the area. The treatment plant is on the same site as the original septic tank. There are no industrial discharges to the sewerage system and therefore the effluent being treated is purely domestic sewerage and with the level of treatment provided we do not envisage a negative effect on the environment.

[2] Section C. WWTP commissioned in 2008 with SLI. funding replaced the existing septic tank. The treatment plant takes a max. flow of 6dwf. and the remainder flows to the original septic tank for settlement prior to discharge. Effluent is screened, oxygenated using diffused air and discharged to the Goish River after settlement. The WWTP is designed for 750pe. Present DWF being treated is 90,000 l.p.d..

EPA Export 01-03-2011:20:21:44 You will see from the Non Technical Summary in the submitted application form that the sewerage from the agglomeration flows by gravity to a new sewerage treatment plant. Part of the old scheme is pumped to the gravity sewer.

[3] Revised agglomeration map attached.

[4] Discharge is to Goish River.

[5]SW2 is an emergency overflow as stated in B.4 of submitted application.

[6]Map 4 submitted with application shows primary discharge location and map 5 submitted with application shows secondary / emergency discharge location [copies attached].

I attach hereunder a screening flow diagram adapted from Circular L8/08:-
