Report

5.0 Emissions 5.1 Emissions from the installation Independent monitoring of plant emissions is carried out by QED Engineering, Monaghan. Cyclones and bag filters are used in the dust extraction system to reduce particulate emissions from the installation. 5.2 Emissions to Atmosphere and Sewer All activities on site are carried out responsibly to ensure that there were minimal odours or air emissions released from the site. There are now four emission points to air from the production process each with individual emission limit values set out by the EPA. The fourth emission point, located at the plasterboard assembly point (A2-4), was added in early 2010. The agency was informed about this new emission point in March 2010. No process effluent is generated from activity of the plant. The waste from the toilets and the canteen are released into the site sewerage system which is pumped to the local wastewater treatment plant. The emissions to sewer are domestic in nature and do not require a discharge licence and is exempt from monitoring. 5.3 Emissions to Water There are no emissions to water of environmental significance from the plant. Storm water emissions were inspected weekly for odour and colour by Quinn Therm staff and samples were taken and analysed by Euro Environmental Services Ltd for pH and COD quarterly and total suspended solids on a quarterly basis.

5.4 Pollution Emissions Register Quinn Therm Ltd do not emit any of the chemicals listed on the PRTR reporting list, therefore no report for the year has been completed, as of the revised reporting online spreadsheets devised by the Agency. 5.5 Waste Management The company has a number of waste streams arising on site that were recovered or disposed of offsite, please refer to spreadsheet attached All wastes were collected and disposed of by approved and licensed contractors, which are periodically audited by Quinn Therm Ltd. Waste Removed 2010

5.6 Recycling & REPAK Where possible, all waste packaging from the production floor is recycled. Quinn Therm recycles wood, baled plastic, plastic drums, baled cardboard, cardboard cores, steel and paper. Quinn Therm subscribes to REPAK, which involves declaring the amount of packaging waste on our products sold within the Republic of Ireland. A bi-annual fee is then paid to REPAK based upon the waste quantities declared. The amount of recycled waste has decreased in 2010 due to a focus on suppliers to reduce the amount of packaging that was send into us. This was also helped by Quinn Therm replacing wooden pallets with polystyrene skids. 5.7 Water Usage Water usage analysis is carried out on a monthly basis. Analysis is made with regards to volume of water used against working hours. This report is sent to the Group’s Environmental Manager and reviewed at the monthly environmental meetings. Any abnormalities from this report will lead to an investigation being carried out and corrective actions issued if required. There were no significant issues within 2010.

5.8 Energy Usage Energy usage for the year 2010 was analysed on a monthly basis, there are dedicated energy management programs in place in Quinn Therm Ltd, which are designed to reduce the amount of energy used on the Therm Ltd site. Therm Ltd uses the SEI Energy Tracker as a tool to aid with energy management. An energy audit was carried out during 2010, a copy of which is available on-site. All monthly analysis is reviewed at the monthly environmental meeting and any abnormalities are discussed and corrective actions issued if required. In a bid to reduce fuel consumption, a new boiler has been installed in the main office area. All relevant information regarding the new boiler was submitted to the EPA in December 2010.

6.0 Environmental Performance 6.1 Annual Reporting Reports were submitted to the agency in full and to the specifications laid out in the IPPC licence.

6.1.1 Noise Monitoring Report Summary A day and night noise survey of the plant was carried out by QED Engineering Ltd, October 2010. Five monitoring points were located for the day-time and night-time noise survey. Due to Quinn Therm Ltd being situated between two other industrial sites and across a busy road (R205 / B127) from a cement manufacturing plant it is extremely hard to distinguish noise sources. NSL1 is situated particularly close to the Quinn Packaging plant and NSL3 is in close proximity to the Quinn Cement plant. NSL5 is the nearest noise location to the Therm Ltd plant and the readings at this location both day and night were well within limits set in the IPPC licence. Therefore it can be assumed that all noise exceedances are attributed to other factors within the vicinity of Quinn Therm Ltd. No complaints relating to noise have been issued to the company in 2010. Three copies of this report were furnished to the EPA.

6.1.2 Ambient Monitoring Summary Groundwater monitoring wells are located on site under condition 3.12 of the IPPC licence 739. Samples for storm water were taken and sent to QED Engineering for evaluation on behalf of the EPA. Ground water is annually tested and storm water is quarterly tested. Quinn Therm Ltd

contractors. Waste contactors are periodically audited with regards their permits and how they carry out the removal of the waste. 6.5 Notifications and Reported Incidents to the Agency during 2010. One incident (involving a minor fire) was reported to the Agency in January 2010. All related corrective actions to this incident are now closed out. Minor incidents are recorded internally as of the recording requirements of ISO 14001, but these incidents had no potential for risk to the wider environment that would necessitate communication to the Agency. 6.6 Tank and pipeline testing As part of the preventative maintenance plan in Quinn Therm Ltd, pipe work, tanks, chemical storage area etc are inspected on a daily/weekly basis for any leaks pressure changes any abnormalities. All issues are documented and kept on file. The underground pentane tank is connected to an alarm sensor, in the case of a pressure drop the alarm will sound and the line will cut out. This alarm system is checked periodically by an approved contractor. 6.7 Risk Mgt Programmes All high risk management programs were closed out in 2010. Currently there are no risk management programs in place; this is going to be reviewed at the annual environment management review to see if status has changed.

7.4 Environmental Prevention Measures and Remedial Actions Quinn Therm Ltd has maintained ISO 14001:2004 certification of the site EMS for the duration of 2010, as well as maintaining an operation EMS system. The following actions have been carried out in 2010 in order to ensure the successful operation of the EHS Management System in accordance with the IPPC licence and ISO14001:2004

Environmental Aspects were reviewed and updated to reflect production activities.

Waste Management practices are in place in Quinn Therm Ltd, only approved contractors are used.

Environmental issues are discussed at the weekly progress meeting and also at the monthly environmental meeting.

Energy management system in place, targets were given for energy reduction. These targets are reviewed on a monthly basis.

Evacuation Drills are carried out on all shifts bi-annually and results are evaluated so that corrective actions can be put in place.

Training to be given to employees in terms of Fire training and chemical spill training. Moving forward regular external audits will be carried out to ensure that the EMS and ISO 14001:2004 are implemented, maintained and is operational throughout the plant. Recertification for ISO 14001: 2004 will take place during early 2011. Quinn Therm Ltd has an ongoing commitment to ensure that all operations are carried out in an environmentally friendly way and that the aspects are controlled and monitored in order to assess environmental improvements on an ongoing basis. In 2011, special focus will be on energy reduction and ensuring that the bund tank integrity testing is conducted in July 2011, as per the IPPC licence. As per new guidelines received from the EPA in October 2010, any contractor carrying out air monitoring for Quinn Therm will be requested to prove their accreditation status against ISO 17025, otherwise they will need to provide competency records. Supporting documents will be included in future AER reports.
