4 2.0 Site Description 2.1 Site Description. Glennon Bros. Timber Ltd. was established in 1913 and is a family run business. The company currently employs over 25 people. The company operates a wide range of facilities such as kiln drying, planing and moulding, stress grading, and timber preservation. The company currently takes in its raw material from Glennon Bros. Cork Ltd. for further processing. Sawn timber is sorted and stacked ready for kiln drying at the Drop Sorter. After drying in the Kilns, the sawn timber is either graded for constructional use at the Stress Grader, or further processed by machining at Machine Shed 1 and 2, and / or treating with preservatives at the treatment plant. The mill is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:50 p.m. from Monday to Thursday and 8:00 am to 2:20 p.m. on Fridays. An evening shift runs from 5:00 p.m. to 1.45 a.m. Monday to Thursday and 2:20 p.m. to 8:10 p.m. on Fridays, during which only secondary handling and finishing occurs. Occasionally some secondary handling and finishing occurs between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays. All above hours are subject to economic activity. Glennon Bros. Timber Ltd. 4

5 3.0 Data 3.1 Summary. This section contains summary reports for the following: Surface water emissions, Waste management, Resource consumption and Noise monitoring. Where detail reports are required, these will be contained in the appendix. 3.2 Surface Water Emissions Summary As part of the IPPC license emissions to water have to be monitored. There are three emission points: SW2, SW3 and SW4. All three points are visually inspected daily. Suspended solid analysis is carried out monthly on all three areas. Environmental Efficiency, An independent environmental firm based in Bray, Co.Wicklow performed the majority of the analysis for Sw2 being closest to the treatment plant is monitored for ph levels on a weekly basis. In period being reported on there have been no exceedences. A summary of this data is included in the appendix. 3.3 Waste Management Report In the reporting period approximately 44.9 tonnes of waste was produced at Glennon Bros. Timber Ltd. This figure has dropped 45% from the previous year s figure of 82 tonne. The reduction of waste is generally attributed to the economic downturn in the market. However a proportion is attributed to the waste minimisation program from last years EMP. The majority of the total waste was ash from powering our kilns. In this period over 66,804m3 of timber & 3407 tonnes of sawdust (for use in kilns) were brought into the mill. In the reporting period there were seven empty IBC s collected for reuse by Osmose Protim Abrasives Ltd. Documentation is available on request. 3.4 Resource Consumption Summary In the period from January 2009 to December 2009, 66,804m 3 of sawn timber was brought in from Glennon Bros. Cork Ltd., and processed in the plant. This is approx 10% less than previous year. All this timber is FSC Certified and sourced from managed, renewable forests. The site had an electricity expenditure of 1,453mWh. The comparable figure for the previous period, Jan to Dec 2008, was 1,749mWh. This constitutes a decrease of 16.92%. The total electricity usage per m 3 of produced material was an average of 21.75kWhm -3 for the year. Approximately litres of diesel was consumed. Volvo front loaders, forktrucks and other onsite vehicles as well as the boiler for timber drying accounted for the majority of the diesel consumed. The timber treatment area consumed approximately 6,405 m 3 of water. This was supplied by the local water scheme. Full details of energy and water consumption are contained in the appendix. Glennon Bros. Timber Ltd. 5

6 3.5 Noise Monitoring. On 15 h December 2009, a noise survey report for daytime was carried out on the site. Toward the end of 2009, when the survey was being carried out, Glennon Brothers Timber only operated on a day shift due to poor economic activity, a night time survey could not be carried out as a result. The results were found to be within IPPC limits. The report is contained in the appendix. 3.6 Environmental Incidents and Complaints Summary There have been no environmental incidents at the site in the period covered by this report.
