The approval this week for a biogas facility in neighbouring Drum, Co Mhuineacháin is a worrying precedent for the wider region.
A similar biomethane / anaerobic digestion plant
is planned for Cootehill town, Co an Chabháin, where the local community were completely sidelined and are overwhelmingly opposed to its proposed location.
✋🛑 Any roll-out of these facilities in Cavan should not proceed until the government puts in place a comprehensive planning framework and guidelines for local authorities in the planning approval process.
