Annual Environmental Report 2010 - Nenagh Agglomeration

Nenagh Agglomeration was issued with a Waste Water Discharge Licence on 25/9/08. Licence Register Number D0027-01. This is the Annual Environmental Report (AER) for 2010 as required under Condition 6.10 of said Licence. It contains the information required under Schedule D of the Licence.

1. Discharges from the agglomeration

Nenagh Agglomeration uses the same primary discharge point, emergency overflows and stormwater overflows as identified in the Waste Water Discharge Authorisation Licence Application. The secondary discharge point was not in use in 2010. There have been no changes to these discharge points since the Waste Water Discharge Licence Application was lodged with the EPA in December 2007. The primary discharge point was sampled 14 times in 2010 (2 grab and 12 composite samples). The monitoring test results of the primary discharge satisfied the criteria set out under the Urban Waste Water Treatment Regulations. All samples taken of the primary discharge since the WWDL was issued were within the Emission Limit Values (ELV) for Nenagh as set out in Schedule A of the Licence.

Please find attached an Excel Spreadsheet called “Appendix No.1 Nenagh WWTW Final Effluent Test Results 2010”. This spreadsheet shows all sample test results for Nenagh WWTW Final Effluent in 2010.

2. Summary report on (i) monthly influent monitoring and (ii) loading removal efficiencies

2.(i) In 2010, 12 composite influent samples were taken at Nenagh WWTP, at monthly intervals. Please find attached an Excel Spreadsheet called “Appendix 2(i) Nenagh WWTW Plant Influent Test Results 2010” (This spreadsheet shows all sample test results for Nenagh WWTW Influent in 2010.)

2(ii) Composite Final Effluent samples were also taken on the same days as the Plant Influent samples. By comparing the percentage reduction of the relevant parameters in the effluent samples, the loading removal efficiencies were estimated. Please find attached an Excel Spreadsheet called “Appendix 2(ii) Summary Report on Loading Removal Efficiencies Nenagh 2010”(which gives a breakdown for all the parameters mentioned in Schedule A:A.1).

3. Data collection and reporting requirements under the Urban Waste Water Treatment DirectiveNenagh Agglomeration’s WWTW is included in North Tipperary County Council’s 2010 Annual Waste Water Returns Report to the EPA. This report is due to be lodged by North Tipperary County Council with the EPA by 26 February 2011.

4. Complaints summaryThere have been no environmental complaints about Nenagh Agglomeration in 2010. The only concerns from the public relating to the agglomeration relate to blocked sewer mains in various areas of Nenagh Agglomeration. These are dealt with by North Tipperary County Council swiftly (usually within 24 hours). The number of blocked mains varies, but the average figure is approximately 2 blockages per week.

5. Pollutant Release and Transfer register- report for previous yearA Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (Condition 4.14) has been completed for Nenagh Agglomeration for the year 2010. This report has been submitted electronically and is included in this AER.

6. Pollutant Release and Transfer register- report for current yearThere is no expected change from the 2010 PRTR for 2011.

7. Ambient monitoring summaryIn 2010, ambient sampling consisted of 12 grab samples taken (i) upstream and (ii) downstream of the primary discharge point. Please find attached 2 No. Excel Spreadsheets called “Appendix 7.1 Nenagh WWTW Upstream Test Results 2010” and “Appendix 7.2 Nenagh WWTW Downstream Test Results 2010” attached. These spreadsheets show all test result values for samples taken upstream and downstream of Nenagh WWTP’s Primary Discharge Point in 2010.

8. Storm water overflow inspection and assessment reportNo Storm water overflow inspection and assessment report has been completed in 2010. It is expected to be completed in the coming years. North Tipperary County Council visually inspects these overflows, twice weekly, and has found that these stormwater overflows only perform in stormwater conditions.

9. Storm Water Overflow assessment of compliance (every 3 years)No Storm Water Overflow assessment of compliance has been completed in 2010. It is expected to be completed in the coming years.

10. Reported incidents summaryThere were no reported incidents in 2010.

11. Report on progress made and proposals being developed to meet the improvement programme requirements.Consultant Engineers, Nicholas O’Dwyer Ltd., are currently preparing a Preliminary Report for the upgrade of Nenagh Waste Water Treatment Works and its sewer network. Nenagh WWTW is included in the DoEHLG’s Water Services Investment Programme. This report proposes to assess and identify deficiencies in the waste water treatment plant, existing sewage and storm collection network and to recommend upgrading works where required. This project will cater for the development of Nenagh agglomeration for the next 20 years. This project proposes to assess and identify deficiencies in the existing sewerage and storm water collection network and to upgrade the network to cater for the development of Nenagh Agglomeration over the next 50 years. The report will 1. Recommend a phased approach to the collection system and treatment plant

construction, as necessary to meet the short term, intermediate and ultimate design life of 50 years.

2. Provide for separate foul and storm sewers, upgrading deficient sewers and built new sewers as required.

3. Submit proposals for minimizing storm flows and dealing with any infiltration to the existing foul system.

4. Review existing pumping stations and identify the need for future pumping stations.

5. Conduct flow and load surveys on the existing network. 6. Conduct CCTV surveys on the existing network. 7. Make recommendations on the upgrade of the SCADA/telemetry systems for

the collection system. It is expected this preliminary report will identify sewer sections that are currently at capacity. These will be replaced with sewers with increased capacity. Older, damaged sewers will be replaced to prevent groundwater infiltration and storm water overflows will be assessed and eliminated if possible.

12. Development/Infrastructural works summary (completed in previous year or prepared for current year)In 2010, no major wastewater infrastructure was undertaken. In 2011, no major wastewater infrastructure is expected to be undertaken.

13. Statement of measures required to prevent environmental damage under Environmental Liabilities Directive (2004/35/EC)It is the goal of North Tipperary County Council to prevent environmental damage under Environmental Liabilities Directive (2004/35/EC). North Tipperary County Council has completed an Environmental Liabilities Risk Assessment to address the liabilities from present or planned discharges. North Tipperary County Council is currently in negotiation with an insurance company in order to put in place financial provisions in relation to the underwriting of costs for remedial actions following anticipated events or accidents/incidents, as may be associated with discharges or overflows from the waste water works. The details of the financial provision/insurance will be submitted to the Agency as soon as they are completed.

14. Assessment of predicted impact on habitatsIt is expected that Nenagh Agglomeration will have no significant adverse impact on habitats into which it discharges.

15. Toxicity TestingToxicity testing was carried out in 2009 on Nenagh WWTW’s final effluent and it was confirmed to be non-toxic. On 8/11/2010, Susan Howley, Inspector, Office of Environmental Enforcement, wrote to Mr. Jim McGuire, Senior Engineer, Water Services, North Tipperary County Council.(EPA Ref: D0027-01/gc02sh.docx.) In this letter, she stated that repeat toxicity testing for Nenagh WWTW was not required, unless there is a material change to, or increase in, the licensed discharge. No material change has occurred at Nenagh WWTW since toxicity testing was first carried out, and as a result, no toxicity testing was carried out in 2010.
