WASTE RECEPTION PLAN 2019 - 2021
Overview
There are 102 piers and harbours around the coast of Donegal under the control of
Donegal County Council, with a number of additional harbour/piers in existence under
private ownership. These harbours range in size from very small facilities catering for a
small number of vessels to the larger commercial harbours. In 2003 a report and inventory
of all of the harbours in Co. Donegal was prepared and published and this is regularly
updated by Donegal County Council. A full list of the piers/harbours is included in
Appendix A.
Importance of Delivery of Ship-generated Waste & Cargo Residues
The ultimate purpose of proper delivery of ship-generated waste and cargo residues to
shore reception facilities is to reduce the discharge of waste into the sea from ships using
ports, thereby contributing to the protection of the marine environment.
SI 117 / 2003 Eurpoean Communities (Port Reception Facilities for ship-generated waste
and cargo residues) Regulations 2003 require the Local Harbour Authority (Donegal County
Council) to prepare a waste reception plan in accordance with schedule 2 of said
regulations.

Distribution of the Plan
The plan is available for inspection at the following locations :
Donegal County Council, Piers & Harbours Section, Road Design Office, County House,
Lifford, Co Donegal
Donegal County Council, Piers & Harbours Section, Donegal Town PSC,
Drumlonagher, Donegal Town, Co Donegal
On-line at www.donegalcountycouncil.ie
The distribution list is contained in Appendix B.
Consultation and Assessment of Need for Port Reception Facilites
Most of the Council’s harbours are small and are used by local inshore fishermen and
leisure craft owners. Any waste generated by the users of the smaller
ports/piers/harbours is generally taken home for disposal.
None of the harbours under the control of Donegal County Council have cargo vessel
traffic.
Following a review of all of the piers and harbours under the Council’s control, it was
determined that there are thirteen ports with significant activity and it is at these locations
that the Donegal County Council Waste Reception Plan will be implemented:
Greencastle Carrickarory Glengad
Buncrana Rathmullan Downings
Malin Head Bunagee Bunbeg
Burtonport Magheraroarty Teelin
Donegal Town
From analysis of the marine traffic in the area and in consultation with harbour users, an
assessment was undertaken to establish the level of PRF required at each location to
adequately meet the needs of the ships normally visiting each pier/harbour. The
considerations and outcomes are documented in this the Port Reception Plan 2018-2021
and any significant changes arising from the previous plan are recorded in Appendix C.
The Council has key stakeholders at these facilities and works in consultation with same to
continuely assess changing or growing needs due to seasonal demand or growth in activity.
The Piers & Harbours team liaises with these user groups, fishing organisations, the
http://www.donegalcountycouncil.ie/

Harbour Masters, the environment section and waste collection providers to amend
facilities as demanded by the level of use at piers and harbours.
Public consultations are ongoing through direct contact from the public to the Executive
and through Elected Representatives.
Said stakeholders assist the Council on an ongoing basis to manage these port reception
facilities by reporting on issues arising with respect to said reception facilities (as no
Council presence at most of the sites).

Capacity of the PRF
Level of Service
Donegal County Council provides a service to its customers and pier/harbour users in
relation to waste management at a selected number of piers/harbours around its shore.
The Council does not provide a waste collection service from individual boats/vessels.
Instead it provides facilities at the identified piers/harbours as herein referred to, to which
its customers may deposit specific waste types in recepticles. The Council then arranges
for the collection of said waste by appropriately licenced waste contractors to dispose of
or recycle said waste in accordance with EU legislation and waste disposal regulations.
Waste/cargo residue handled by third parties
There are no arrangements with third parties to handle waste/cargo residue or to provide
a waste service on behalf of the Local Authority at any of the 13 piers/harbours identified
in the Donegal County Council Waste Reception Plan 2018-2021.
It is noted that the Rathmullen Marina which is privately owned and operated, provides its
own waste management arrangements.
The Council, in delivering its waste reception plan, relies on assistance from local fishing
community groups and individuals at a number of pier/harbour locations (Glengad,
Buncrana, Rathmullen, Malin Head, Bonagee, Bunbeg and Donegal Town) to identify when
collection services are required or when additional collection services are required due to
an increase in normal / expected use.
Waste/cargo residue which cannot be received at the pier/harbour
The waste/cargo residue which cannot be received at each of the 13 piers/harbours
as per identified herein is any waste or cargo residue not referred to under the
various pier/harbour need assessment.
There is no demand for cargo residue reception in the Donegal County Council
jurisdication.

Donegal County Council – Piers & Harbours November 2018
Charging System
The Cost Recovery System is set in place via the Byelaws for the regulation of certain
Harbours in County Donegal cited as the “Donegal County Council (Certain Harbours)
Byelaws 2010” came into effect on 1st September 2010. The Byelaws impose a blanket
charge for the disposal of ship generated waste as detailed in this plan under “Charging
System”.
Copies of the byelaws are available on request from the Council’s Piers & Harbours Section
or may be downloaded from its website. The current waste reception charges [Extracted
from Donegal County Council (Certain Harbours) Byelaws 2010] for the harbours included
in this plan are as follows:
Disposal of ship generated waste (mandatory
on all vessels operating from the harbour)
Less than 10 GT
10 or more GT
20 or more GT
30 or more GT
100 or more GT
€10 per month
€20 per month
€30 per month
€60 per month
€100 per month
Cost Recovery System
The Cost Recovery System should in accordance with the current regulations, include for a
method of charging an indirect fee for the use of the PRF irrespective of whether the PRF
are used. An explanation of how the indirect fee should be calculated so it covers/exceeds
30% or the cost of providing the service. An explanation of any differentiation in charges
by size or type of ship should be given and a clear explanation of what is covered in the
indirect fee should be set out.
Currently the Donegal County Council byelaws fees are insuffienct in value and/or volume
do enable same to cover 30% of the cost of providing the service. A review of said byelaws
will be required to address the fee values such that same when calculated equates to at
least 30% of the cost of providing the services. It is proposed to commence the
aforementioned byelaws review in 2019.
Direct charges levied by external contractors
There are no direct charges levied by external contractors and so no information can be
provided on any such charges for delivering waste not covered by the indirect fee.
-
Donegal County Council – Piers & Harbours November 2018
Payment process for waste reception charges
Charges for the disposal of ship generated waste is currently being collected at the
following ports by the Council’s Harbour Masters:
Greencastle
Burtonport
The collection of harbour dues (including charges for the disposal of ship generated waste)
is undertaken through the issue of an annual invoice. The Harbour Masters identify the
larger vessels at the aforementioned ports/harbours. The administration issues an invoice
for the appropriate charges to same. Payment can be made in a variety of ways as
outlined in the information letter issued to the ship owners, and where payment is not
forthcoming, the Council’s income collection team follow up with the owner. It is noted
here that only larger vessels are charged as, following assessment, it was considered that
the smaller vessels do not generate sufficient waste to warrant charging.
Record Keeping
Records on the amounts of waste and cargo residues received are recorded and submitted
on Waste Reception Plan Report Form annually. Information on same is recorded by the
Harbour Masters throughout the year. Records are kept at the Harbour Masters offices
and are retained for a minimum of 3 years.
Receipts are issued for waste collected and disposed of.
Due to the nature of the fleets and low volumes of waste collected for disposal, charges
are only legislated for at the larger ports/harbours. With the introduction in 2018 of the
annual charging invoice system, it is considered that there is potential to increase the
number of locations where the waste reception plan could be extended to. This will be
considered as part of the Byelaws review due to commence during 2019.
Public Consultation
The Port Reception Plan 2018-2021 will be advertised for a 4 week period commencing in
September 2018 for consideration by the public and to facilitate submissions in relation to
the proposed plan. Any observations submitted will be considered.
