the development will consist of: the upgrading of the existing water and sludge treatment process systems at the Staleen Water Treatment Plant, which currently supplies up to 31,500 m3 per day of drinking water to Drogheda and its environs, parts of south Louth and east Meath. The production capacity will not be increased as a result of the proposed development. The development will include: (A) Demolition and removal of an existing disused raw water balancing tank and berm (approximately 1,059 sqm) with an overall height of approximately 4.6m and the removal of an existing sludge dewatering system from the site. (B) Provision of new chemical storage and dosing facilities comprising: 8 no. bunded storage tanks (with overall heights ranging from approximately 4.5m to approximately 5.7m), 2 no. chemical dosing buildings (comprising 1 no. building approximately 90 sqm with an overall height of approximately 4.7m and 1 no. building approximately 96sqm with an overall height of approximately 4.5m) and 3 no. chemical storage silos (with an overall height ranging from approximately 9.2m to approximately 9.8m). (C) An underground emergency spill tank (approximately 22sqm). (D) A filtration unit of approximately 203 sqm with an overall height of approximately 6.7m. (E) Upgrading and internal modifications to the existing washwater tanks and pump sump structures. (F) A new flocculation tank of approximately 142 sqm with an overall height of approximately 6.2m and the provision of a new undergound uv chamber of approximately 80sqm. (G) A sludge dewatering building (approximately 180 sqm) with an overall height of approximately 9.8m, 1 no. sludge holding tank (approximately 66sqm) with an overall height of approximately 6.4m (approximately 5.2m without handrail). (H) Vehicular access will be via a recessed widened (from approximately 4m to 8m wide) gated entrance at the existing location, comprising the removal of part of the existing boundary wall at the entrance to the site and the provision of a new entrance arrangement and associated internal road layout changes. The proposed development includes the provision of a new external perimeter fence of approximately 1.0m (at the south west, north west and north east site boundaries) and an internal security fence of approximately 2.4m at all of the site boundries and around the chemical dosing building and 8 no. bunded storage tanks (located at the south west corner of the site) and ..........
