Public meeting in Gort to discuss approval of controversial Biogas plant

A public meeting will take place in Gort tomorrow to discuss the granting of planning permission for a biogas plant near the town. 

The controversial facility would be located at Ballynamantan, Kinincha and Glenbrack. 

It was rejected twice by Galway County Council - but was given the green light by An Bord Pleanala on appeal. 

Local campaigners have now called a public meeting to discuss their options - it will take place at Sullivan's in Gort tomorrow evening at 7.30. 

Ciaran O' Donnell is spokesperson for the Gort Biogas Concern Group.
