LII ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1.
It is unclear from the submitted Site Location Plan, the full extent of the applicant's land
ownership, and therefore whether or not the applicant owns the area of land on which the
development is proposed. In this regard the applicant is requested to provide the following
information:
a) A revised Site Location Plan showing the full extent of the applicant's land
holding surrounding the application site.
b) Confirmation that the applicant has control of the land within the visibility
splays.
2.
The proposed development is considered insufficient in terms of the environmental
information provided. In this regard, the applicant is requested to provide the following
information:
a) Submit an up-to-date signed letter for the collection of dead birds from the
proposed development.
b) Submit an up-to-date signed letter from a registered contractor for the
collection of all poultry manure arising from the development, the information
submitted shall include details on the outlet for all poultry manure arising
from the proposed development. Details shall be sufficient to demonstrate
compliance with the European Union (Good Agricultural Practice for
Protection of Waters) Regulations, 2025.
c) In order to demonstrate compliance with the European Union (Good
Agricultural Practice for Protection of Waters) Regulations, 2025, submit
records of organic fertiliser movement and final destination thereof for the
current poultry house at Gola, Scotstown for calendar year 2025.
d) In Appendix 1 of the submitted Natura Impact Statement the proposed barn
style poultry development recommends a stocking rate of not more than 9
birds per sqm. As per drawings submitted the proposed unit will have a nett
bird area of 2882.9m2 so can only accommodate a maximum number of
25,946 birds not the proposed 30,000. Please demonstrate compliance of the
proposed unit with the guidelines submitted as part of this application.
e) The application proposes increased bird numbers from 9000 to 39000 on
completion of this development with cumulative ammonia reductions of 8%
from the unit. The documentation submitted with the application indicates
that the reduction is partly as a result of weekly removal of manure from both
poultry units. Given the 'free range' design of the existing poultry unit please
provide further detail as to how this can be achieved as it is not clear from
drawings submitted.
f) An N&P statement for the holding 2024 has been submitted. An updated
'farmer full' NMP for the entire holding is required in order to demonstrate
compliance with the European Union (Good Agricultural Practice for
Protection of Waters) Regulations, 2025 and should include the N & P
statements for 2025.

The Planning Authority has received a third -party submission in respect of the proposed
development. The applicant is requested to review the content of same and provide a detailed
response to the specific issues raised.
