i live fairly close and the smell is unbelievable at times, as far as i know the council built the extension onto the school and built the astro turf pitch and gives x amount to the local commitee, to stop them complaining. very cheaply silenced if you ask me.

I'm sure they'd consider any viable solutions you may have for reducing the odour.

Here's some info on landfills in Ireland - http://www.citizensinformation.ie/categories/environment/waste-management-and-recycling/landfill_sites

Maybe get a committee together and press the council/EPA to undertake a review of the situation?

there is a committee already there , people silence is being bought with all weather football pitches and easy planning permissions... its not right.... the smell is rank

I dunno if it's in relation to this, I haven't a notion where Philipstown is, but there's an absolutely rancid smell in the Wheaton Hall, Brianstown Manor, Meadowview area the last few days.
