Corrib Gas Go Ahead Granted to Shell

category national | environment | feature author Thursday November 11, 2004 00:22author by Terry - NUIG Ecology Society Report this post to the editors

Broadhaven Bay - Shell's Next Target

Broadhaven Bay

Shell have been given permission to build a massive refinery, and accompanying pipeline in north-west Mayo, posing a danger to the local community from landslides, traffic and water supply pollution, and threatening the marine ecology, including whale and dolphin populations. The background on the issue is here Saga of the Corrib Gas Field.

Almost needless to say they are getting a very cushy deal off the Irish government, as detailed here: Corrib Gas Go Ahead Granted to Shell.
