Why this application matters
Retention area
Retention is sought for rock extraction across approximately 1.2 hectares outside the quarry’s existing permitted extraction areas.
Established quarry site
The works are at Kellymount Quarry in the Kellymount and Shankill townlands near Paulstown, where extraction was previously permitted under an earlier quarry permission.
Wider quarry proposals
A separate proposal for the same quarry provides for continued operations and a 9.8-hectare quarry void, alongside relocation of site facilities and eventual restoration to ecological habitat and a permanent waterbody within a 24.6-hectare application area.
