In accordance with the provisions of Article 33 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001
(as amended) you are hereby requested to submit further information as set out on the attached

It should be noted that you will be required to give notice in an approved newspaper under article

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Note: Your assigned agent shall liaise with Planning Section prior to the preparation and submission
of this Further Information.
Should the Further Information materially/significantly alter the proposed development, you are
obliged to re-advertise same in accordance with Article 35 of the Planning and Development
Regulations 2001 (as amended).
1. The site is located within the preferred route corridor for the N2 Ardee to Castleblayney Road
Scheme. Policy NRP 3 of the County Development Plan 2025-2031 seeks to resist development
that could add cost, complexity or prejudice the delivery of National Road projects.
Following extensive discussions on road impacts and lands required to deliver the road scheme,
previous planning application file number 24/60291 was approved on this site based on a pre-
agreed site boundary. Whilst this application proposes a similar development, the site boundary
has changed and now encroaches on the current proposed CPO boundary for the road scheme.
This has the potential to add cost, complexity and/or prejudice the delivery of the project.
Accordingly, please acknowledge said concern and submit revised drawings that comply with
Policy NRP 3 and are to the satisfaction of the Project Liaison Officer.
2. The existing infill and raising of ground levels on-site has not been factored into the proposed
development, as it was previously under planning application file number 24/60291.
Accordingly, in the interests of clarity and to allow for a fully informed decision, please
(re)advertise the development, as significant further information under Article 35 of the Planning
and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended), to also include permission to retain the
existing infill and raising of ground levels on-site.
You will need to submit revised and/or further plans and documents accordingly, along with
copies of the significant further information site and press notices.
3. The information submitted is insufficient with regards environmental protection.
Accordingly, the following is required:
a) The applicant shall submit a revised site layout plan clearly demonstrating:
i. The areas within the proposed development site previously infilled;
ii. Proposed foul water drainage system (marked in red); and
iii. Proposed surface water drainage system and associated outfalls (marked in blue).
b) Submit a completed Water Protection plan checklist for the proposed development.
c) Clarify if further infill material will be required at the proposed development site and the type
of authorisation proposed.
d) A risk assessment shall be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, such as an
Environmental Consultant, to determine if the infilled material on-site is suitable for use as
infill material. A report shall be provided and shall include the following:
i. Origin and volume (tonnes) of fill material already infilled at the proposed
development site;
ii. Representative samples taken from a number of trial holes. The taking of these
samples shall be suitably supervised;
iii. Basic characterisation, i.e. laboratory analysis on the representative samples, shall be
completed and shall include screening for Asbestos. The characterisation shall be used
to classify the infill material which may, in accordance with the Waste Management
Act 1996 (as amended), be required to be disposed of to landfill;
iv. The basic characterisation laboratory results obtained shall be further analysed using
the Haz Waste Online Tool to determine the suitability of the material for infill and to
determine classification;
v. If required, recommendations for the lawful remediation of the lands shall be
proposed; and
vi. A further assessment carried out by an Environmental Consultant shall be completed
to determine the suitability of the proposed surface water disposal method taking into
account the possibility for groundwater contamination arising from the infilled
material. Alternative proposal shall be submitted if required.
