We have been sent some amazing photos of birds that have been taken on, or in the vicinity of the planned Sand and Gravel Quarry, and Inert Waste Infill. How can we dare risk losing these beautiful creatures from our local ecosystem forever? @Natures_Voice@BBCSpringwatch
A fantastic idea @wyrecouncil to encourage people to put on their walking boots and volunteer. Let us just hope that great areas of our countryside haven't been turned into Sand and Gravel Quarries + Inert Waste Infills before they have a chance. #StopPreesallQuarry
Analogy #1
Your local chippy puts 8 times the amount of salt you like on your supper - do you keep going back or go somewhere else? 🤮
Baseline salinity = 34.2
Dumped waste from gas cavern mining in Islandmagee = salinity of 260.
What will they do ? 🐬🐟🐧
About those plans to consider returning to #fracking... here in Lancashire, we're not only watching... we're ready for whatever they try ;) #FrackFreeLancashire
There’s a lacuna in NI law which means there’s no decommissioner of last resort to cover liability for #infa InfraStrata gas storage eg if Co went bankrupt. Any decision on ML should be delayed until appropriate legislation is in place. This just 1 of many objections to licence.
Islandmagee home to Irelands only mainland Puffin , nesting Rosate Tern , and myriad of red and amber species. Beautiful beachs , Rinka ice cream & famous cliff paths . We say no to
solution mining & seawater pollution

DEADLINE 5pm WED for gas storage licence PC responses. Legal advice states “NIEA are in receipt of info that confirms sHRA has based its assessment on an inaccurate brine model. That assessment OVERESTIMATED the extent of brine dispersal & UNDERESTIMATES the enviro impact” #infa
Public consultation docs thoroughly scrutinised by dedicated community , NGOS , stakeholders and political reps.
@daera_ni & NIEA now have the arduous tasks of deliberation and responding to the myriad of discrepancies found .

During lockdown, our volunteers remain on-call ready to help others.
We urge everyone to think carefully about using the coast in case they get into difficulty. When called to an incident, it puts additional pressure on them & other frontline emergency services.
