    on the wildlife side its no hearsay,I witness it regularly.toxic waste?as i said.it was a guess on my part.how can you 'pretty much' assure me about emissions? or is that just a guess on your part?

    I never mentioned the wildlife bit. I can assure you with 99.9% certainty based on my work which I cant really expand on as I would rather remain anonymous. You don't know me so you can take or leave that. But for what its worth emissions from Damastown are highly controlled and very frequently monitored.

    the 0.1% is because accidents happen.

    If you say so.

    I don't actually have any fate in mankind and I am not speaking for Ireland as a whole. I am specifically talking about Damastown and I do this from personal experience.

    Industrial pollution is actually vastly in the minority in Ireland. Agri and domestic diffuse make up a huge majority. Local authority would be higher than private industry also.

    They can happen alright but the EPA programme for Damastown is very tight based on the nature of the facilities there and the regulations they adhere to.

    Please link me to any verified toxic waste leak from Damastown that you can find on the net.

    if there was a toxic leak they wouldn't be to keen to let people know about it id figure.but the part about agri waste is spot on,much more frequent and damaging.horses are in abundance all through that stretch,but they have been for years with little or no effect.

    They would have no choice in letting people know. The whole estate is EPA monitored. EPA are independent and would report the data. Anyway I give up at this point. You can figure whatever you want.
