Please do not allow Arc 21 to go ahead with their proposed plans to build a waste incinerator the size of Wembley football stadium, to service the whole of Northern Ireland, at the top of the Hightown Road in Newtownabbey.
Why is this important?
If this were to go ahead with this proposal it would have massive repercussions on not only a social but a health scale for the people living in the residential areas around the Hightown and Mallusk areas. This will also have massive finacial implications on the tax payer who will be footing the 230 million bill for this project.
Bombardier have put forward a tender for this waste which they would recycle into sustainable energy to power Shorts/Bombardier. This has no cost to the tax payer and will go along way towards saving jobs at Bobardier/Shorts who are a major employer here in Northern Ireland.
