licence.

Cook Ireland Limited is an existing installation located on a six hectare site within the National Technology Park on the eastern fringes of Limerick City.

Established initially as a production and distribution centre, the installation developed to encompass the research and development, manufacturing of urology and gastroenterology products. Cook is primarily an assembly site with the majority of product components manufactured off-site and assembled on-site for shipment. The primary products produced are stents and their delivery mechanism.

. . . . .

. . . . . . . . .

The installation is expanding production of the Zilver Coated Stent, thereby increasing use of organic solvent to a capacity to use at least 10 tonnes per year of organic solvents. Ailnual solvent usage was approximately 20 tonnes i n 2014, which brings the activity into Class 12.2.2 of the EPA Act 1992, as amended and within the scope of Chapter V of the Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU.

The key environmental issues associated with the installation are compliance with the requirements of Chapter V of the Industrial Emissions Directive 20 10/75/EU and the satisfactory storage of solvents and waste materials on site.

The licence sets out in detail the conditions under which Cook Ireland Limited will operate and manage this installation.

Decision & Reasonsfor the Decision . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -. .

....

Tlie Environniental Protection Agency is satisfied, on the basis of tlie information available, that subject to compliance with the conditions of this licence; any emissions from the activity will comply with and will not contravene any of the requirements of Section 53(5 ) of the Environmental Protection Agency Act 1992 as amended.

In reaching this decision tlie Environmental Protection Agency has considered the application and supporting documentation received from the applicant and tlie report of its inspector.

No objection having been received to tlie proposed deterniination, the licence is granted in accordance with the tenns of the proposed detenuination.

A screening for Appropriate Assessment was undertaken to assess, i n view of best scientific knowledge and the conservation objectives of the site, if the activity, individually or in combination with other plans or projects, is likely to have a significant effect on a European Site(s). In this context, particular attention was paid to the European site(s) at Lower River Sliatmon SAC (Site code 002165) and the River Shannon and River Fergus Estuaries SPA (site code 004077). Tlie Agency considered, for the reasons set out below, that the activity is not directly connected with or necessary to the management of the site as a European site and that i t can be excluded, on the basis of objective information, that the activity, individually or in combination with other plans or projects will have a significant effect on a European site, and accordingly the Agency determined that an Appropriate Assessment of the activity was not required.
