The Environmental Protection Agency has initiated legal proceedings against Irish Cement for alleged breaches of its operating licence at its Limerick plant.
The EPA has confirmed to the Limerick Leader it has issued a summons to the company, relation to the emissions from the Castlemungret cement pant. The case is scheduled to come before a sitting of Limerick District Court on 2 March 2018.
A spokesman confirmed it received the summons "in relation to dust emission incidents earlier this year at the factory."
