EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the past year, GlaxoSmithKline Cork continued to produce active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) to supply demand for it’s portfolio of products. This demand has not remained as consistent as the site would hope for. In 2010, the site manufacturing volumes reduced by 30% compared to 2009. The plant is typically operating at ~20% capacity.

Despite these challenging circumstances, the site continues to invest in site infrastructure, to ensure it is central to GSK’s production capability. The site’s flexibility in terms of operation and people is key to return the site to increased production output in the future.

During 2010, one new product was introduced to GSK Cork (Nelarabine) and it is hoped that more will follow to utilise the plant capacity available.

In 2010, GSK continued to demonstrate strong environmental compliance reporting with it’s IPPC licence. The Environmental Protection Agency visited the site on five occasions (four sampling visits and one audit). The EPA Audit conducted in March 2010 recorded no non-compliances and nine observations. These observations were duly actioned and closed out by GSK EHS.

In terms of reduced waste generation at source, early phase process development involves reducing solvent waste and optimising reaction efficiency. Solvent recovery continues to be carried out on-site with sizable investment being undertaken to recover methylcyclohexane (MCH) from Horizant over the coming years and the introduction of a small scale solvent recovery rig in 2012 to enable the development of solvent recovery for new products.

Despite the challenging business environment, GSK Cork remains committed to environmental compliance. In 2010, the site invested €3.5 million in environmental operational and monitoring expenditure. Capital investment in environmental management projects totaled over €1.8 million.

The past year has seen another remarkable performance in the site’s energy reduction initiative with a significant reduction in electricity usage in 2010 due to the Energy Reduction Programme activities on site. Mains water usage was also significantly reduced due to the elimination of underground mains water leaks. In line with the site’s Energy Policy, Certification to EN16001 is scheduled for 2011.

1. INTRODUCTION Licensee: GlaxoSmithKline (Cork) Ltd.

Location of Activity: Currabinny, Carrigaline, Co. Cork.

Licence Register Number: P0004-03.

GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Cork Ltd. is based in Currabinny, located on the banks of Lough Beg near to the mouth of Cork Harbour. The facility produces bulk active pharmaceuticals for clinical supplies and final products. Goods are exported to other GSK locations worldwide for formulation and distribution.

GSK was granted an Integrated Pollution Control (IPC) Licence Reg. No. 4 on the 6th of December 1994. Due to new developments on-site, GSK was subsequently granted a revised IPC Licence Reg. No. 473 on 20th August 1999. The entire licence numbering system was changed by the EPA in July 2006, and the register number was changed to P0004-02. An IPPC Licence Review Application was submitted to the Agency in September 2006; IPPC Licence Register No. P0004-03 was issued on 10th July 2007.

One of the requirements of the IPPC Licence (P0004-03) is to prepare an Annual Environmental Report for submission to the EPA by the 31st of March of the subsequent year. This report, in compliance with Condition 11.8 of the licence, details environmental performance at the site for the period January to December 2010. This report has been prepared in accordance with the following EPA AER/PRTR Guidance Documents:

• Principles of PRTR and AER Reporting of Annual Environmental Information (Guidance Doc. No. 1).

• The Step by Step Guide for AER / PRTR Reporting for EPA Licensed Facilities (Guidance Doc. No. 2)

• EPA’s Guidance Note for Annual Environmental Reports, 2000 (Guidance Doc. No. 3)

• The EPA AER Guidance Note Annex on AER PRTR Reporting V.1.1 (Guidance Doc. No. 4)

• The AER/PRTR Electronic Reporting Workbook and Website User Manual (Guidance Doc. No. 5)

• Procedure for Creating and Submitting Your Full PDF AER (Guidance Doc. No. 6)

Condition 2.2 of GSK’s IPPC Licence requires the licensee to establish and maintain an Environmental Management System (EMS). GSK has established the elements of an EMS as relevant to the conditions of the IPPC Licence - refer to Section 3 below.

An Environmental Policy has been prepared and is posted at several locations throughout the site including the site Security Building. A copy is included in Appendix A for reference.

1.1 Site Description GSK is located at National Grid Reference E 1782 N 0628, near the village of Ringaskiddy. GSK occupies a 52 acre site in Currabinny, approximately 21 km from Cork city on the Currabinny road.

Features of interest or sensitive locations in the immediate vicinity include the lagoon inside the approach causeway to GSK. The surrounding marsh is home to many animals and birds, a high tide roost for waders and wildfowl and acts as an important staging post during the annual migration of many water species. GSK in conjunction with the Irish Wildbird Conservancy (IWC) play a significant role in maintaining this wildlife sanctuary.

The original plant was developed between 1973 and 1975. Since the plant began operations in 1975, increased production has led to a number of expansions and modifications of production and ancillary facilities. However, throughout these changes attention has been paid to ensuring that the plant and its operations have had minimal impact on the environment.

Pollution control equipment on-site includes: two high temperature incinerators (both incorporating a DeNOx unit); an emergency scrubber; one thermal oxidizer; a wastewater treatment plant (biotreatment/chemical treatment); and three solvent recovery plants.

The site comprises:

• 7 No. Production Buildings (Buildings 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8) • a Milling/Nanomilling Facility (Building 4), • a Research and Development Building, (Building 9) • 2 No. Warehouses (for raw materials, intermediates, finished goods and

maintenance supplies), • External material storage areas including tank farms (waste and raw

materials), • an Environmental Control Centre, • a Waste Management Facility (for solid wastes), • Service Utilities, • Laboratories, • an Engineering Building, • Office Buildings, • a Cafeteria and a Security Building.

1.2 Main Products The plant operates on a 24 hour day, 7 day week shift basis. 85 tonnes of product (active pharmaceutical ingredient) were produced during the reporting period 2010.

The products are manufactured by organic synthesis using batch processing operations. Each product is generated through a series of intermediate stages with each stage comprising a number of unit operations. A typical production process is outlined in Figure 1.1.


Page 7

Figure 1.1 General Production Schematic

The main unit operations carried out on site include the above production operations, as well as solvent recovery, utilities generation and pollution abatement.

The main products produced during 2010 were:

• Lapatinib • Eltrombopag

• Horizant (Solzira) • Abacavir

• Ropinirole • Paroxetine

• Nelarabine • Dutasteride

Raw materials are subjected to various physical and chemical changes in order to produce the required chemical in the correct form. As a result, solid, liquid and gaseous emissions are generated. These emissions are subjected to physical and chemical treatment to remove any toxic, odorous or environmentally sensitive substances in accordance with IPPC Licence Reg. No. P0004-03 prior to discharge from the facility.

A large percentage of the non-recoverable solvents and certain aqueous solutions as well as gaseous emissions are treated/destroyed in the two incinerators on-site.

Section 2 below provides a summary of GSK’s monitoring data from the various pollution control installations for 2010 with respect to the following:

• Emissions to water

• Emissions to atmosphere

• Waste management

• Noise

• Resource consumption (energy, water) and energy efficiency

2. ENVIRONMENTAL DATA SUMMARY INFORMATION 2.1 Emissions to Water: Storm Water (Ref. Points SW02 and SW03)

The main point of discharge of surface water runoff from the site to the estuary is reference point SW02. A monitoring chamber is in place which allows for the continuous monitoring of pH and TOC prior to the discharge of surface water runoff at SW02 in accordance with Schedule C.2.3 of the IPPC Licence. Should the surface water pH exceed the limits of 6-9 or the TOC level exceed 200 mg/L, the monitor automatically shuts the valve on the line to the estuary and diverts the run-off to the retention ponds. From there it can be transferred across to the effluent treatment plant for treatment. A new firewater pond was added in 2007, which increased the retention capacity by 23%, to 984,000 gallons (4,473 m3).

Surface water discharged from SW02 is also inspected visually on a weekly basis for colouration and odour in accordance with Schedule C.2.3 of the IPPC Licence. There were no non-compliances related to surface water discharge from SW02 in 2010.

Surface water originating at Car Park A is discharged from point SW03. The discharge is inspected visually on a weekly basis for colouration and odour in accordance with Schedule C.2.3 of the IPPC Licence. There were no non-compliances related to surface water discharge from SW03 in 2010.

Note: SW04 as referenced in Schedule C.2.3 is a redundant, legacy surface water reference point, no longer applicable to the existing site drainage.

2.1.1 Summary Information For the purposes of this section, an average value for the pH and TOC results of the surface water discharge ex SW02 obtained over each month during 2010 is provided in Table 2.1.

2.1.3 Surface Water Diversions In 2007, the EPA requested that GSK report its diversions from surface water discharge to retention. The current arrangement, as explained in Section 2.1 above, is that surface water is continuously monitored for pH and TOC and non-compliant material is not discharged but directed to the surface water retention ponds and thence to the wastewater treatment plant for treatment. Hence non-compliant surface water is not discharged and there is no issue of non-compliance. There are two penstock valves operating in series that ensure that no discharge to the estuary occurs when surface water is rerouted for biotreatment.

In 2009, there were 120 diversions of surface water, a reduction of 44% from 2008 due to a series of measures implemented in 2008 to reduce the number of diversions to the surface water pond.

A target was set in the EMP for 2010 to reduce the frequency of diversions to the surface water retention ponds by 20% in 2010. The target for 2010 was achieved as there were 72 diversions of surface water, a further reduction of 40% from 2009. These figures are illustrated in Figure 2.3. This improvement was achieved by increasing awareness of the issue with all site teams in addition to reduced plant activity.

Figure 2.3 Surface Water Diversions 2007 to 2010

For the surface water effluent leaving the site, a target was set in the EMP 2010 that the TOC of the surface water from site be <30 mg/L in 2010, and to maintain awareness of surface water quality across the site. The target for 2010 was not achieved as the average TOC content of surface water discharged from the site at SW02 was 42.8mg/L. It is planned to reduce the TOC level to <38 mg/l (i.e. 10%) reduction in 2011.


Page 12

2.2 Emissions to Water: Treated Effluent (Ref. Point SW01) Process and foul effluents arising on site are treated in the on-site wastewater treatment plant. The treated effluent is then discharged into Lough Beg, Cork Harbour from reference point SW01. Two pump-outs are normally discharged each day, 30 minutes after each high tide. Effluent was pumped out on 343 days in 2010.

A daily 24-hr composite sample of the treated effluent is analysed for a variety of parameters. All parameters are monitored in accordance with the requirements of Condition 6 and Schedule C of the IPPC Licence. The sample is analysed for COD and suspended solids on a daily basis, weekly for BOD*, nitrates, total ammonium and phosphate. Organic solvents* are monitored on a quarterly basis, dioxins* on a bi-annual basis, and total heavy metals* and toxicity* on an annual basis. Note: * denotes that the parameter is analysed by an accredited external contractor.

2.2.1 Summary Information Table 2.2 below summarises the emissions to SW01 in 2010.

Note that the mass emission of suspended solids of 2,480 kg in 2010 is equivalent to 2% of the total mass emission permitted under the licence. The issue of high total suspended solids arising in the incineration quench water (refer to Section 2.3.1) does not result in a high suspended solids content in the final effluent actually discharged from the site at SW01.

2.2.2 Trend Analysis Figures 2.4 and 2.5 illustrate the trend analysis for emissions of treated effluent to the estuary from SW01 for the years 2005 to 2010.

2.3 Wastewater from Incineration Activities (Ref. Point W1) Incineration waste water is monitored at ref. point W1 and then combined with other treated effluent from the wastewater treatment plant prior to leaving the site as final effluent. Emissions at W1 are subject to Schedule B.2 of the IPPC Licence. The emissions are monitored for a selection for parameters as shown in Table 2.4 below. Monitoring for these parameters began in July 2007 with the issue of the current IPPC licence.

2.3.1 Details of Non-Compliances There were 30 non-compliances in 2010 with Schedule B.2 of the licence with respect to incineration waste water emissions at W1. These are detailed in Table 2.5 below. All relate to a high content of Total Suspended Solids (TSS).

During 2010, the main causes of TSS content were:

Water hardness (primarily CaCO3);

Swings in pH when burning Dichloromethane (DCM)

Shedding of inert incinerator firebrick as a consequence of normal operation (comprising principally insoluble aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, with some iron oxide); and

Carbonaceous soot in quench water whereby steady state conditions arose in the incinerator firebox due to blockages in waste tanks

These non compliances give a result of 91.3% compliance with the IPPC Licence. Condition 4.5.1 of the licence requires 95% compliance with the emissions limit value of 30 mg/L for total suspended solids.

During 2008 and 2009 a number of items were progressed by GSK to reduce the TSS levels in this stream and these measures are summarised in the 2009 AER. GSK continued to progress these measures in 2010:

GSK have optimised the incinerator wastewater caustic control to reduce pH excursions that lead to water hardness solids precipitating. Air diffusers were installed in waste tanks to ensure improved mixing of wastes, reduced ‘layering’ of MDC and reduced HCl concentrations in the quench water.

Conclusions regarding TSS at W1

1. GSK acknowledges TSS above ELVs at W1 likely to occur due to water hardness and incineration firebrick shedding despite operational adjustments.

2. The contents of the firebrick will not cause an adverse impact on the aquatic environment;

3. GSK Cork will manage the suspended solids levels in the incineration quench waters to minimize as much as possible.

4. The incineration waste water joins with other waste water streams to form the final effluent from the site. The suspended solids in final effluent is typically at a level of ~10% of the ELV (250mg/L).

2.4 Emissions to Atmosphere Monitoring and analysis of emissions to atmosphere is carried out in accordance with Conditions 4 and 5 and as specified in Schedule B.1 of the IPPC Licence. The main emissions to atmosphere from the site are from the emission points listed in Table 2.6 below. Note that the reference point naming/numbering convention was changed in the new IPPC Licence issued in 2007.

Monitoring of emissions to atmosphere was carried out during normal plant operating conditions. Quarterly sampling of hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen bromide from A2-1 and A2-3(A) is carried out over 30 minute sampling intervals. Annual sampling of particulates from API particulate vents is carried out over 2-hour sampling periods. An external contractor is commissioned to sample dioxins annually from A2-1 and A2-3(A).

Table 2.7 summarises the emissions to atmosphere during 2010. Note that the thermal oxidiser (ref. point A2-15) was not in use during 2010. The licence allows for a second thermal oxidizer (A2-16), which has never been installed. Incinerator No. 3A (A2-3A) was modified in 2010 to allow it to operate in thermal oxidizer mode, however due to plant process issues it was not operated in thermal oxidizer mode in 2010.

Particulate vents listed in Table 2.6 were sampled once during the year as required by Schedule B.1 of the IPPC Licence. All results (refer to Table 2.8) were found to be below the emission limit values of 1mg/m3 for total particulates and 0.15 mg/m3 for active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) respectively.

Bypass events

During periods where the incinerator is being bypassed, the emissions to atmosphere are vented via a scrubber (SCR1901) at the emission point (formerly termed Vent 3B). The total mass of VOCs emitted during bypasses in 2010 was 428Kg during 149hours 54min of bypass.

In fulfillment of Agency bypass requirements, while on bypass the solvent emissions are monitored by an online continuous monitor and processes will be controlled in order to ensure the relevant air quality limits are adhered to. A dispersion model uses the information from the online analyser and the predicted ground level concentration (GLC) is to be compared with GLC limits i.e. WHO, OEL/42 or Danish C.

An automated viewer is used for environmental operators to monitor solvent emissions during bypass events and will guide operations supervisors if emissions need to be controlled by process shutdown.

The agency is notified of each significant (>1hour) bypass event. Process operations are shutdown after 90 minutes in any event until incineration capability can be re-established. The agency will also be notified of any significant emission as follows:

>10% < 25% GLC Limits – Minor Incident (Rank of 1)

>25% < 50% GLC Limits – Limited Incident (Rank of 2)

>50% GLC Limits – Serious Incident (Rank of 3)


Page 19

The Agency is furnished with a quarterly summary of all bypass event details. While bypass capability is a key safety feature in incineration/thermal oxidizer operation, root causes of bypass events are addressed with a view to preventing reoccurrence & maximizing incineration uptime. CAPAs (Corrective Action & Preventative Actions) resulting from these investigations are managed on the site Environmental Incident tracker.

2.4.3 Validation of Atmospheric Emission Monitoring Systems GSK has carried out the quality assurance testing in line with the European Air Emissions Standard IS EN 14181. The testing of the Automated Monitoring System (AMS) or Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS) is to test the validity of the monitoring data from incineration/thermal oxidiser monitors.

QAL2: Quality Assurance Level 2 (QAL2) testing has been completed and the results are compliant with the regulation requirements. A report was submitted to the Agency in 2009.

AST: An AST (Annual Surveillance Testing) was carried out in 2010 as required by IS EN 14181. The testing indicated (after retest on SO2 and TOC on Incinerator No.1) that the calibration functions at QAL2 are still valid. These findings were shared with the Agency during the course of 2010.

The program for testing over the coming years is as follows:

Year 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014

Test AST QAL2 AST AST QAL2

QAL3: Procedures are now in place to indicate the manner in which regular monthly calibrations occur and the quality assurance systems that are in place to support the testing.


Page 24

Calibration control charts are in place to ensure that the monitors’ performance does not drift out of control. These are reviewed regularly after each calibration.

During Q4 2010, it was noted that two of the continuous monitors (MCS – Infra red based) monitors were not performing adequately and were replaced/upgraded. This upgrade work means that QAL2 validations are needed to generate new calibration functions. This work will be completed as incinerators become operational in 2011.

2.5 Waste Management

2.5.1 Waste Generation and Fates In accordance with the EPA’s Guidance Note for Annual Environmental Reports and Condition 11.9 of the IPPC Licence, a record of the types, quantities and fates of all hazardous waste streams arising on site in 2010 is included as Appendix B. A record of all non-hazardous waste streams generated onsite in 2010 is included as Appendix C. The main figures are also included in the electronic AER Returns Worksheet to be submitted to the EPA separately, a copy of which is included in Appendix F.

Figure 2.9 compares the quantities of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes generated onsite for the years 2005-2010. The decrease in amount of hazardous waste generated in 2010 from 2009 (hazardous waste is down ~1,500 T compared to 2009) is attributed to a 33% decrease in production levels at the site. The decrease in non-hazardous waste generated in 2010 from 2009 (non-hazardous waste is down ~ 800 T) is attributed to a decrease in construction activity and in particular with demolition projects compared to 2009. 88% of non hazardous waste generated was sent for recycling or recovery in 2010.

2.5.5 Analysis of Aqueous Wastes for Incineration Aqueous waste for on-site incineration is stored in the tanks TK1327, TK1328, TK1354, TK1381 and TK1382. The contents of each tank are analysed on an annual basis for organic solvents, metals, calorific value and water content in accordance with Schedule C.4 of the IPPC Licence.

Where the contents of the tank contain immiscible liquids or layers, a sample from each layer is taken. Samples from the tanks were taken on 26th February 2010 and a summary of the results is presented in Table 2.11. No layering was observed in the contents of the five tanks on this occasion. The presence of a high water content in wastes sent for incineration onsite is the subject of a Waste Accountability project underway as part of the site’s Energy Management System, discussed in Appendix D of this report.

2.5.6 Total Waste Management (TWM) Programme Since March 2005, Indaver Ireland has managed the shipment of all waste (both hazardous and non-hazardous) leaving the site. This Total Waste Management (TWM) approach has led to a reduction in the volume of waste going for disposal. It is GSK’s intention to continue to reduce the amount of waste disposed of off-site to landfill and incineration abroad in 2011. A number of actions are being implemented on-site via the TWM system to further improve waste management and disposal methods. These include:

• Indascan

On October 20th 2010, the Indascan project went live on site. Indascan is an Indaver owned system, whereby receptacles of waste in the Waste Drum Park have a unique barcode, which when scanned are uploaded to a central database. The benefits of the system are that a Real Time Inventory of quantities and levels can be accessed at any time.

• Management of Construction Compound

Indaver took over the day to day running and management of the Construction Compound in September 2010. Significant cost savings were directed to GSK Cork in this venture of approx. €35,000.

• Dry Mixed Recycable Bin Press

TWM introduced a method for cost saving in February 2010 for dry mixed recycables. Dry mix was traditionally placed in 1,100Ltr wheelie bins and collected on a weekly basis with GSK paying for transport and pick up charges. TWM introduced a bin press which reduced the amount of collections and resulted in savings per year in the region of €3,000.

• Paint Tin Press

Installation of a paint tin press to assist in the packaging and disposal of paint tin cans also resulted in a cost saving for GSK.


Page 33

• GSK Operator Training

In 2009, GSK Operators were trained in waste baling and labeling of waste onsite, with respect to ADR and IMDG Regulations. Refresher training was conducted twice during 2010 on 120 operators.

• Murphy Package Container

Due to high volumes of waste, Murphy Containers were historically kept onsite on a permanent basis. As volumes of waste have decreased over the last year, the container was put on a “on-call basis” resulting in a saving to GSK of €18,000 per year.

• Green Landscape Waste

Previously on site, the green landscape waste that O’Doherty’s generated was directed to the landfill compactor. A dedicated skip for green landscape waste is now in place and when full is sent to Greenstar for composting. Proposal is to reduce landfill figure by ~10Mt total tonnage 2010 with an estimated savings of €2,070 p.a.

2.5.7 Audits of Waste Management Facilities

During 2010, waste management facilities and hauliers were audited on GSK’s behalf by Indaver Ireland as outlined in Table 2.12:

2.6 Noise Condition 6.12 of the IPPC Licence requires that a noise survey of the site operations be carried out annually and a summary of the results be submitted as part of the AER.

An external consultant carried out a noise survey of the site on the 15th and 16th of November, 2010. The facility was in normal production during the periods of survey. Table 2.13 below outlines the results obtained.

Schedule B.3 of the IPPC Licence sets a daytime noise limit of 55 dB (A) and a night-time noise limit of 45 dB (A) at the nearest noise sensitive locations (LAeq 30 minutes). Measurements were taken at the same noise-sensitive locations as per previous noise surveys, i.e. locations N1 to N4 and N5, a residence located to the west of N1.

In summary, the noise levels recorded at noise sensitive locations during 2010 were well within the IPPC Licence limits of 55 dB (A) daytime and at night-


Page 34

time, four of the five monitoring positions were well within the permitted limit of 45 dB (A) LAeq.

At monitoring position N2 (adjacent to a residential dwelling on the beach to the north of GSK), the total ambient night-time noise was recorded at 47 dB(A) LAeq, marginally in excess of the permitted licence limit. However, some of the ambient noise at position N2 emanates from a neighboring industrial facility.

Based upon the assessor’s observations during the survey work, the ambient night-time noise had no clearly audible tonal component or impulsive component and no significant tonal or impulsive noise was audible at any noise sensitive location.

It is proposed to undertake a noise survey at N2 during a scheduled plant shut down in 2011 to monitor the noise levels at N2 in the absence of GSK operations and determine the noise contributions at this location from other sources.

Table 2.15 below compares the resource consumption levels from 2006 to 2010. There was another significant reduction in Electricity usage due to the Energy Reduction Programme activities. Mains water usage also significantly reduced due to elimination of underground mains water leaks. The increase in gas usage was due to the low air temperatures at the start and end of 2010, and an increase in the amount of waste being sent for incineration (Ref. Section 2.7.5 and EMP Progress Report 2010 – Appendix E).

2.7.3 Energy Audit Condition 7.1 of the IPPC licence requires GSK to audit the energy efficiency of the site.

In 2010, GSK Cork put a roadmap in place to prepare for a Stage One Audit to EN16001 by year end based on the findings of the 2009 gap analysis of site operations to the standard. This work included:

• Identification of the factors which drive significant energy consumption onsite

• Development of Energy Performance Indicators and an associated reporting mechanism

• The formulation of Standard Operating Procedures to ensure the efficient operation of significant energy users, such as Refrigeration and HVAC systems


Page 37

• Development of an internal audit schedule to ensure both the management system and the significant energy users are performing optimally

• Formation of an Energy Management Team who have been tasked with the ownership of the energy management programme across the site

Each of these activities is in line with the Site Energy Policy. The Stage One Audit was completed successfully in December 2010 and the Stage Two Certification Audit is scheduled for Q1 2011.

2.7.4 Operational Excellence in Energy Management A new approach was adopted in 2008 to the tracking and management of energy using the tools of Operational Excellence (“OE”). During 2010 Operational Excellence (OE) continued being used to improve the effectiveness of the Energy Reduction Programme at the site. In April, a review of the programme, facilitated by OE, was carried out. All of the main 2010 Energy Reduction projects were reviewed to ensure that targeted reduction would be achieved.

Performance Management was improved with OE’s assistance. Building Energy Owners were appointed in key areas, such as R&D Building, Contractor’s Compound and Environmental Area. These owners are responsible for monitoring energy usage in their area against defined targets. Non conformances are investigated, and additional energy reduction projects and initiatives are identified.

2.7.5 Key Energy Management Projects

1. Cooling Water Optimisation

Following a review of all the site’s cooling water systems, a project was identified which would deliver electricity savings by operating some of the main cooling water pumps on header pressure control. The system was modified in 2010 to allow this form of control, and the pumps no longer run a constant load but will ramp up or down in response to system pressure.

2. Incinerator No.3 Thermal Oxidiser Mode Operation

The project to modify Incinerator No.3 to allow it operate in Thermal Oxidiser (TO) mode was successfully completed. However, due to plant process issues it was not possible to run the incinerator in TO mode during 2010.

3. Waste Accountability Improvement Project

During 2010, a system was put in place to record actual water usage versus planned water usage for cleaning and validation activities.

4. Improved Utilisation of Site Metering Systems

Improvements were made to the electricity metering infrastructure to improve its robustness and the reliability of usage data.


Page 38

Additional nitrogen flow meters were also installed in key usage areas and work began on the upgrade of the site’s steam metering.

Table 2.17 summarises the implementation costs and associated benefits in terms of energy, money and CO2 emissions from the energy-saving recommendations made in the energy audits.

2.7.6 Water Usage and Efficiency Condition 7.2 of the site’s IPPC Licence requires that GSK identify opportunities for reduction in the quantity of water used on site wherever possible.

Trends of water usage are reviewed weekly as part of GSK’s Performance Management process. Excess usage is investigated to ensure that overall water use is minimised.

Leak testing and repair

During 2010, work continued on the identification and elimination of leaks on the underground firewater mains. The repair of these leaks resulted in a saving of 17,500 m3/year.

Table 2.18 summarises the implementation costs and associated benefits in terms of water and money from the water-saving recommendation made as a result of the site’s water audit.

Water Reuse Opportunities

In 2011, it is planned to investigate the potential reuse of bio plant effluent and/or surface water for low grade utilities input. Significant tank capacity will become available in the coming year, which may be used for water storage for feed to the incinerator quench make-up water.

2.7.7 Production Efficiency Condition 7.4 of the IPPC Licence requires the site to undertake an assessment of the efficiency of use of raw materials in all processes, having particular regard to the reduction in waste generated.

1. Reaction Mass Efficiency

The principal products manufactured at GSK Cork have been assessed for process efficiency during research & development. During transfer of each product from R&D to full scale production operations, process efficiency improvement measures are identified. These include solvent recovery viability, process telescoping etc. Table 2.19 shows the Mass Productivity. Mass productivity reflects the contribution of each raw material in producing one kg of product. Effectively, the higher the mass efficiency, the leaner the process.

Table 2.19 Mass Efficiency

Product Mass Productivity (%)

Lapatanib12 2.0

Abacavir 2.3

Ropinirole 0.6

Eltrombopag 1.1

Dutasteride 0.2

These figures are continually assessed by GSK Corporate with an objective of carrying out specific efficiency improvement projects in line with business plans. Process chemistry and solvent recovery improvements will improve process productivity.

2. Re-use of Recovered Solvents

All products currently made on site have been evaluated for solvent recovery opportunities. Toluene and IPA are currently recovered on-site at GSK Cork for reuse on-site. Tetrahydrofuran is recovered off-site for reuse on-site.

• Toluene is recovered from two stages of production. Recovered toluene can replace up to 100% of the toluene used in these stages of the production process. In 2010, 36.2MT of Toluene was recovered on-site. 104MT was used on plant; the difference being made up from additional Toluene recovered in 2009. This made up 70% of the demand for Toluene in the process from which it can be recovered. This 104MT of recovered toluene represents 40% of the total toluene usage on site in 2010. • Isopropanol (IPA) is recovered from and reused in a single stage of production (API). 270MT of IPA was recovered on-site in 2010. 343.5MT was reused on plant, the additional material having been recovered in 2009. This represents a 62% replacement of IPA requirements for the process.

12 Lapatanib stages 2, 3 & 4 currently manufactured at Cork.


Page 43

• Tetrahydrofuran is recovered off-site by a third party in the UK. The material is recovered from two stages of a process for reuse in three stages of the process. In 2010, 484MT of foul THF was collected and shipped to the UK. 354MT of recovered THF were returned to site for reuse on plant. Due to carry over of stock from 2009, a total of 385.8MT recovered THF was reused on site in 2010, replacing 87% of the total THF usage in the process with recovered material. .

Figure 2.14 Solvent Usage Breakdown for GSK Cork 2010


Page 44

3. Development Work on Solvent Reuse

All products on site are evaluated for potential solvent recovery opportunities.

• Methylcyclohexane recovery was planned to be introduced to site in 2010. The material was to be recovered from a single stage of production for reuse in that same stage. The material was to be recovered on site and would have had the potential to replace up to 62% of the Methylcyclohexane usage on site. Significant development work on this project was undertaken in 2009 and 2010 but due to a change in timelines for product introduction to site, the recovery was not implemented. The recovery will now be initiated and the reuse of the recovered solvent validated in 2012. • Other solvents identified as being suitable for recovery going forward are 2Methyl Tetrahydrofuran, Methanol, Methyl tert Butyl Ether, Toluene, Acetonitrile, Ethyl Acetate, Iso Octane and n-Butanol.

• A significant project is planned for development and design in 2011 and for initiation in 2012. This project will involve the construction of a small scale solvent recovery rig to enable the development, implementation and validation of solvent recovery for new products on a smaller scale at R&D and industrialization phases; with the intention of the recovery being transferred to one of the larger solvent recovery units on site when volumes are high enough. Solvent being assessed for this rig include Isopropanol, Methyl tert Butyl Ether, Acetonitrile, Tetrahydrofuran, 2-Methyl Tetrahydrofuran, Toluene and Dichloromethane.

2.8 Control and Monitoring 2.8.1 Compliance with Condition 6.1 and 6.2

In house wastewater analysis is carried out by competent staff. Each analyst has undergone suitable training and has demonstrated competency prior to carrying out compliance testing.

Water testing procedures have been validated for accuracy, precision, suitability with test matrix, LOQ and linearity.

Validation protocols, reports and maintenance contracts are in accordance with the relevant international standard.

Regular calibrations are carried out where possible using laboratory standards. A third party proficiency scheme is also used as quality control. Any out of spec analysis from the 3rd party proficiency scheme is investigated in accordance with Procedure ENVP-025 and the findings documented.

Third party analysis is carried out by suitably accredited laboratories using internationally recognized standard methods.

2.9 Agency Monitoring and Enforcement 2.9.1 Aqueous Emissions Sampling and Analysis

The EPA took samples of emissions to water from the site on the following dates during 2010:

1. 09/02/10 Treated effluent to SW01 (Split sample).

2. 09/02/10 Incinerator Quench Liquor (Split sample).

3. 09/02/10 Treated effluent to SW01 – Grab sample for VOCs (sample not split).

4. 05/05/10 Treated Effluent to SW01 (Sample not split).

5. 05/05/10 Incinerator Quench Liquor (Sample not split).

6. 07/09/10 Treated effluent to SW01 (Split sample).


8. 07/09/10 Treated effluent to SW01 – Grab sample for VOCs (Sample not split).

9. 07/09/10 Surface Water (Sample not split).

10. 10/11/10 Treated Effluent to SW01 (Split Sample).


12. 10/11/10 Surface Water (No sample available).

Table 2.20 provides a comparison of the EPA monitoring results with GSK’s monitoring results for the split samples. The parallel testing shows comparable results in most cases.

GSK results for suspended solids were higher than those reported by the Agency but significantly lower than the IPPC emission limit value of 300 mg/l. It is likely that the main reason for the difference in suspended solids results


Page 46

between the Agency and GSK is solids settling in the sample prior to taking the split sample. Where GSK & EPA analysis carried out in parallel differ significantly (> Z score of 2.0), GSK will follow the onsite procedure ‘ENVP-025 Review of Out-Of-Compliance Environmental Monitoring’ in the same way as out of spec proficiency test results will be investigated.

As reported in Section 2.8, the site laboratory methods are carried out in accordance with International Standards and have been validated for the key performance characteristics; linearity, precision, uncertainty, LoQ, and suitability with the text matrix.

GSK’s Environmental Laboratory participates in a recognised laboratory proficiency testing scheme “Aqua Check” for which several parameters are tested throughout the year. This scheme enables GSK’s Environmental Chemists to continually monitor the accuracy of test methods within the laboratory.

2.9.2 Atmospheric Emission Sampling and Analysis The EPA did not carry out any atmospheric emission sampling on-site during 2010.

2.9.3 IPPC Licence Audit The EPA carried out a scheduled audit at the GSK site on 15th March 2010. No non-compliances were recorded.

The auditors held an opening meeting to discuss the objectives and scope of the audit. GSK gave a presentation on the progress of the implementation of the Environmental Management Programme.

The Auditors then carried out a tour of the site, special attention was given to the wastewater treatment plant, operation of Incinerator A2-3A and associated continuous environmental monitoring system (CEMS), solvent recovery plant and waste management.

The auditors held a closing meeting at which they made comments and relayed observations as shown in Tables 2.21.

Table 2.21 EPA Audit Observations

Item EPA Observation / Corrective Action Required

Response/Action by GSK

1 Gas calibration cyclinders:

The licensee shall update the procedure currently in place for the calibration of the CEMS analysers, to include the following:

• A system for tracking calibration certificates associated with the gas calibration cyclinders

• The procedure for conversion of gas cyclinder concentrations in ppm to the analyzer requirement for concentrations in mg/m3 units.

• A calibration gas cert tracking system including reference to bottles has been developed and is in place and in use. (Complete)

• GSK commited to updating calibration procedures to include a system for converting ppm gas cylinder concentrations to mg/m3. (30th June 2010) (Complete)

2 QAL2 Linearity and Variability Testing

The licensee shall ensure that the next annual surveillance test includes parallel measurements between the SRM and the CEM which indicates the variability in the data sets. Such variability testing must be performed in accordance with the requirements of EN14181. All future QAL2 reports must report 15 parallel measurements between a SRM and the CEM.

Contrary to the observation, parallel measurements with SRM were carried out for all parameters in the QAL2 reports submitted to the agency earlier in 2010. Variability tests were subsequently carried out for NOx, which had appreciable emission levels. Emissions for each other parameter were at low level clusters and <95% confidence interval for that parameter. At low concentrations, calibration functions are of little value due to the variability that can be seen at these levels. For this reason, calibration functions were not calculated for these parameters using parallel testing results and linearity results were deemed more appropriate.

GSK included parallel measurements with SRM values for the next AST test. Future QAL2 reports will include 15 parallel

4. POLLUTANT RELEASE AND TRANSFER REGISTER (PRTR) 4.1 PRTR Report 2009

In March 2010, GSK submitted to the EPA a list of substances to be tracked under the Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) Regulations. GSK has completed a mass balance for these substances as listed in the electronic AER Returns Data Table, which will be submitted separately to the Agency. A copy of the PRTR and AER Returns Data Table is included herein as Appendix F.

4.2 PRTR Proposal for 2011 It is proposed to track and report the same pollutants in 2011 for the PRTR as were reported for the year 2010.

5. OTHER REPORTS 5.1 Underground Tank and Pipeline Inspection and Monitoring

Condition 6.8 of GSK’s IPPC Licence requires that all underground effluent and foul sewer pipes are tested at least once every three years. There are no underground tanks on site.

The next round of testing and inspection of underground process pipelines is due by the end of 2011. The complete foul sewer system was hydrostatically tested in 2009.

In 2010 the focus of inspection was on storm drain testing:

456m of pipework was tested, the length of pipework that passed the initial test corresponded to 28m. 171m of pipework was replaced, 43m of pipework patch repaired and 30m of pipework was relined.

19 manholes were tested and 2 of these manholes passed the initial test. A total of 9 manholes were repaired. All of the above testing was carried out to EN1610 standard at a total cost of €93k.

There was also a project initiated in 2010 to install new drains feeding the firewater retention ponds which included installing 150m of pipework, 150m of pipework passed the initial test. 8 manholes were constructed and 8 manholes passed the initial test. All above testing was carried out to EN1610 standard at a total cost of €273k.

5.1.1 Process Sewer Pipelines A CCTV survey of process sewer pipes at GSK was carried out by an external consultant on 21st July 2008 and details were reported in the 2008 AER. The next round of testing and inspection of underground process sewer pipelines is due by the end of 2011.

5.1.2 Foul Sewer Pipelines A complete hydrostatic testing of the foul system (manhole chambers, main lines and branches into buildings) was completed in 2009. A crane location survey was completed in 2009 and a drawing and flowchart detailing the permitted locations for mobile cranes is now followed when situating a crane anywhere on site. Details are provided in the 2009 AER.


Page 60

5.1.3 Surface Water Pipeline System A CCTV survey of surface water pipes at GSK was carried out by an external consultant on 11th June 2008. All faults found in the survey were rectified in 2009 and reported in the 2009 AER.

A front end study on the practicality of carrying out hydrostatic testing and subsequent repairs on the surface water pipeline system was initiated in Q1 2010. In 2010 the focus remained on storm drain testing. 456m of pipework was tested, 28m of pipework passed (initial test). 19 manholes were tested, 2 of which passed (initial test). 171m of pipework was replaced, 43m of pipework was patch repaired and 30m of pipework relined. 9 manholes were repaired. All above testing was carried out to EN1610 standard at a total cost of €93k.

There was also a project to install new drains feeding the firewater retention ponds which included - 150m length of pipework installed, 150m of pipework passed (initial test), 8 manholes were constructed, 8 manholes passed (initial test). All above testing was carried out to EN1610 standard at a total cost of €273k

5.2 Bund Integrity Assessment Condition 6.8 of GSK’s IPPC Licence requires that all bunding structures and containers are tested for integrity and water tightness at least once every three years. There are 159 bunded areas at the GSK facility, with various types of internal finish, 3 of which are redundant.

The site implemented a new schedule for bund integrity assessment in 2009 and this bund integrity testing schedule was subsequently forwarded to the Agency in 2009. The schedule includes visual inspection of all bunds on an annual basis. Approximately 12-13 bunds to be inspected visually per month. All bunds were scheduled to be hydrostatically tested during 2009/2010 and thereafter on a three-year basis, as required by Condition 6.8 of the IPPC Licence.

During 2009, 155 bunds were tested and the findings detailed in the 2009 AER. In 2010 a total of 23 bunds were repaired at a cost of €73k, Phase 2 of the repair project to repair all remaining bunds including undersizing issues is currently underway with an estimated completion date of April 2011, at a cost of €89k.

5.3 Groundwater Quality Monitoring Reports Schedule C.6 of the IPPC licence requires GSK to sample and analyse groundwater from thirteen groundwater wells (AGW-1 to AGW-13) for the following parameters on a biannual basis:

• Total ammonium

• Major anions

• Major cations

• Individual heavy metals

• Trace organics.

Additional bacteriological parameters were analysed in all 13 monitoring wells and one borehole (BH-104) to monitor bacteriological and ammonium contamination in the groundwater on site.


Page 61

Schedule D requires GSK to submit a summary of these results as part of the AER. The full groundwater monitoring reports are held on file and may be inspected upon request.

5.3.1 Summary of Monitoring conducted on the 30th June 2010 Groundwater sampling was undertaken by an external consultant on the 30th June 2010. 13 bedrock groundwater monitoring wells (AGW-1 to AGW-13) and one perched groundwater well (BH-104) on site were sampled. Additional bacteriological parameters were analysed in all monitoring wells to monitor bacteriological and ammonium contamination in the groundwater on-site.

Results of testing were compared against the EPA’s Interim Guideline Values (IGVs).

• The ammonium concentrations were elevated above the relevant standards in all monitoring wells with the exception of AGW6, AGW1, AGW 7 and AGW8. In recent years, leaking foul drains on-site were thought to be the main contributor. Historical monitoring has shown an overall decline in ammonium concentrations on-site. This decrease in concentration is attributed to a programme of drain inspection and repair works undertaken on–site by GSK since 2008.

• Total coliforms, which can be naturally occurring, were <1ct/100ml in all 14 samples. E.coli contamination which is indicative of relatively recent faecal waste remained at low concentrations on-site (<1ct/100ml in all 14 samples) compared to elevated concentrations detected in November 2008. This decrease in concentration is attributed to a programme of drain inspection and repair works undertaken on–site by GSK since 2008.

• Elevated EC readings are expected given there is a tidal influence on the site.

• Selected major anions and cations are elevated in relation to EPA IGVs. The presence of some elevated anions and cations is likely to be associated with seawater influence on the site. This is comparable with previous groundwater sampling rounds.

• There was no detection of mineral oil in June 2010 similar to previous monitoring rounds.

• Concentrations of heavy metals were well below the EPA IGV standards

• There was no detection of VOCs in any of the monitoring wells apart from low level Isopropylbenzene detected in AGW-3 at 4ug/l and 2-Chlorotoluene detected in AGW12 at 3ug/l.

• No SVOCs were detected above the laboratory detection limits which are similar to previous monitoring rounds.

The key contaminant detected on-site in June 2010 ie ammonium concentrations are being tackled by the ongoing drain repair works onsite as detailed in Section 5.1 above and the EMP 2011 (Appendix D).

5.3.2 Summary of Monitoring conducted on the 24th of November 2010 Groundwater sampling was undertaken by an external consultant on the 24th of November, 2010.


Page 62

All 14 monitoring wells (AGW-1 to AGW-13 & BH-104) on the GSK site were sampled as part of the site’s biannual IPPC Licence requirements.

Additional bacteriological parameters were analysed in all monitoring wells to monitor bacteriological and ammonium contamination in the groundwater on-site.

The ammonium concentrations were elevated above the relevant standards in all monitoring wells with the exception of AGW6, AGW8 and BH-104. Previous site investigations concluded that the ammonium is likely to be from an on-site source. Identified leaking foul drains on-site are thought to be the main contributor. Historical monitoring has shown an overall decline in ammonium concentrations on-site (reference Figure 5.1) which is most likely due to foul drain repairs work together with a decrease in personnel working on-site.

• Total coliforms were <1ct/100ml in all 14 samples. E.coli contamination remained at low concentrations on-site (<1ct/100ml in all 14 samples) compared to elevated concentrations detected in November 2008. This decrease in concentration is attributed to a programme of drain inspection and repair works undertaken on–site by GSK since over the past two years.

• Selected major anions and cations are elevated in relation to EPA IGVs. This is comparable with previous groundwater sampling rounds. Again, the presence of some elevated anions and cations is likely to be associated with seawater influence on the site.

• Mineral oil was detected in one ground water well at AGW7 at a concentration of 0.4 mg/l against the EPA IGV of 0.1 mg/l.

• Concentrations of heavy metals were well below the EPA IGV standards in all 14 samples.

• There was no detection of VOCs in any of the monitoring wells apart from low level m and p-xylene and Iso-Propylbenzene detected in both AGW10 and AGW11 at 1ug/l and 2-Chlorotoluene and 4-Chlorotoluene detected in AGW5 at 14 ug/l.

• No SVOCs were detected above the laboratory detection limits which are similar to previous monitoring rounds.

Overall the groundwater quality in November 2010 is consistent with historical trends in groundwater quality with significant improvements in bacteriological contamination as outlined in Figure 5.2. Elevated ammonium concentrations are likely to be related to historical eaking foul drains on-site. The extensive programme of drain repair works on-site completed in 2008/2009 has led to an improvement in groundwater quality as seen in recent monitoring rounds and as illustrated in Figures 5.1 and 5.2.

As expected, the bacteriological parameters have degraded more quickly than the ammonium and therefore the decreasing trend in the bacteriological parameters as shown in Figure 5.2 was more rapid. Further groundwater monitoring will continue to track these parameters.

5.4 Residuals Management Plan The Residuals Management Plan (RMP) for the site was reviewed in 2010 and submitted to the Agency as part of the 2010 AER. Condition 10.2.2 requires that this RMP be reviewed annually. The RMP was reviewed by GSK Environmental, Health and Safety personnel in conjunction with the external consultants responsible for the original RMP in September 2010 and subsequently submitted to the EPA. The reviewed RMP document is summarized as follows:

The site is licensed under IPPC for two activity classes: 5.16.0, the use of a chemical or biological process for the production of basic pharmaceutical products, and 11.1.0, the recovery or disposal of waste in a facility, namely the recovery or disposal of waste at the GSK facility by incineration and thermal oxidation. This automatically places the facility within Risk Category 3, the highest risk class. The EPA Guidance on Environmental Liability Risk Assessment, Residuals Management Plans and Financial Provision prescribes the scope of the Residuals Management Plan for such a Category 3 site and how each element may be derived. As there are no anticipated long-term environmental liabilities associated with the site, no Restoration or Aftercare Plans are required and a Closure Plan is sufficient.

The scope of the plan addresses the key issues, which would occur in an orderly shutdown of all the site activities on a phased basis over an estimated time period of 3-6 months. The basis of the plan is to ensure that, upon completion of the plan, the facility would be in a suitable state for future industrial use and its condition would not pose a risk to public health and safety or the environment. GSK are satisfied that all soil contamination issues have been resolved and remediated.

Cost estimates were prepared for each element of the closure plan. The costs are primarily related to the cleaning, decontamination, and decommissioning of equipment and divestiture/disposal of obsolete equipment and wastes. Further costs will be incurred in the provision of staff and security during the implementation of the Closure Plan and the completion of an environmental due diligence audit. The total cost of implementation of the plan is estimated to be in the order of €4.15m.

GSK confirms that the company has more than adequate resources from operations to fund the Residuals Management Plan. In addition, the value of the 52 acre site itself as a fixed asset far outweighs any potential closure or remediation cost.

5.5 Environmental Liability An Environmental Liabilities Risk Assessment (ELRA) for the site was conducted in 2008 and submitted to the Agency, in accordance with Condition 12.2.2 of the IPPC Licence. The methodology followed that prescribed by the EPA’s Guidance on Environmental Liability Risk Assessment, Residuals Management Plans and Financial Provision. The site lies in Risk Category 3, the highest risk class; hence a detailed site-specific ELRA was conducted on all foreseen unplanned but possible and plausible events occurring during the operational phase of the facility.

All risks to surface water, groundwater, atmosphere, land and human health were examined. The ELRA identified no risks of massive or major severity. All risks lay within the range moderate-minor-trivial. For each risk, the probability


Page 65

of occurrence over a 30-yr period was rated. Each risk was rated by multiplication of severity by probability of occurrence.

The existing mitigatory measures in place were deemed adequate to manage the environmental risks satisfactorily.

The most likely scenario and probability for each risk was taken and a cost ascribed for remediation. The maximal cost determined for an unplanned environmental liability associated with the operational phase of the facility is €270,000 (including 20% contingency).

The ELRA will be reviewed as necessary to reflect any significant change on site, and in any case every three years, per Condition 12.2.2 of the IPPC Licence. The next review of the ELRA is required in 2011 at the latest.

5.6 Financial Provision GSK is required to make financial provision for the known environmental liabilities identified and costed in the RMP and the unknown environmental liabilities identified, rated and costed in the ELRA.

5.6.1 Known Liabilities (RMP) The total cost of known environmental liabilities identified by the RMP for implementation of the plan is estimated to be in the order of €4.15m (including 25% contingency on decommissioning costs).

GSK confirms that the company has more than adequate resources from operations to fund the Residuals Management Plan. In addition, the value of the 52 acre site itself as a fixed asset far outweighs any potential closure or remediation cost.

5.6.2 Unknown Liabilities (ELRA) The most likely scenario and probability for each risk was taken and a cost ascribed for remediation. The maximal cost determines for an unplanned environmental liability associated with the operational phase of the facility is €270,000 (including 20% contingency).

The company is insured against environmental accidents/incidents to a value of €250,000. GSK Cork has made financial provision in its accounts for the remediation of environmental pollution and the tackling of unknown environmental liabilities as they are identified. This is more than adequate to cover the envisaged €270,000 (including 20% contingency) required to remediate the most costly risk. Such self-insurance by financial accounting is a suitable financial instrument per Table 5.3 of the EPA’s Guidance Note.

In the case of an off-site event, there are sufficient financial/insurance provisions in place to return the environment to its original condition and pay any associated costs/expenses incurred by third parties or external services/agencies such as the EPA or Health and Safety Authority.

5.6.3 Statement of Measures

GSK is required by Condition 12.2.1 to provide an annual statement as to the measures taken or adopted at the site in relation to the prevention of environmental damage, and the financial provisions in place in relation to the underwriting of costs for remedial actions following anticipated events or accidents/incidents, as may be associated with the carrying on of the activity. The risk assessment exercise will include the accurate estimation of the


Page 66

financial provisions required for the underwriting of such costs. The amount of indemnity held shall be reviewed and revised as necessary, but at least annually.

The expenditure on environmental control and measures to improve environmental protection in and around the site is shown in Table 5.2 below.
