1.0 Introduction

Following a request from the EPA, SLR Consulting (Ireland) Ltd was commissioned to monitor discharges from discharge points DX, E and F at KMK Metals Recycling Ltd., Cappincur Industrial Estate, Daingean Road, Tullamore, Co. Offaly.

As the water quality at DX worsened during April 2019 monitoring round, in particular with respect to mineral oil, DX was officially shut off on the morning of the 28th May 2019, as requested by the EPA. ENVA now collects this wastewater and deliver it to their facility in JFK industrial estate in Dublin. KMK Metals Recycling Ltd are continuing to prepare an application with laboratory results to Irish Water to have the wastewater treated locally.

Monitoring was conducted by Olivia Brennan of KMK Metals Recycling Ltd. on 30th May 2019 for storm water discharge E and foul water F. This report was completed by SLR’s Principal Hydrogeologist Dominica Baird and Project Hydrogeologist Clodagh Gillen.

The results were compared with updated trigger and action values, which were calculated taking account available data to November 2018. The updated action values also took into consideration the EQS values. The EQS maximum allowable concentrations (MACs) are referenced, where available, otherwise the EQS annual average (AA) is referred to. Results are also compared to licence emission limits where applicable.

2.0 Sampling Methodology

Surface water grab samples were extracted from the outflow of the final sampling chambers of E and F in May 2019. The sample locations for E and F are presented in Drawing 01.

The samples were collected in the appropriate sample containers, which are supplied by the laboratory for the required analysis. The containers were securely sealed so that there was no loss of volatile components such as moisture and no separation of components. Sample containers were filled and sealed so that there was minimum free air space. All samples containers were clearly and uniquely labelled with details including ID and sampling date.

All samples were placed into a cooler box with ice packs to maintain a temperature below 5°C. The samples were forwarded to ALS Environmental, Hawarden, Deeside, UK for analysis. The analysis required for each sample was listed on the Chain of Custody Record which accompanied samples.

2.1 Rainfall The closest rainfall station is in Mullingar approximately 35km north-north-east of the site. The rainfall over the proceeding March, April and May were 157.1mm, 58.6mm and 43.2mm respectively. See Table 2-1 for rainfall data from the week before sampling. It is noted that the rainfall in March was above long-term average, and April and May were below the long-term average.

2.2 Laboratory Testing The storm water discharge sample (E) was analysed for the following suite of parameters:

• Total suspended solids, ionised ammonia/ ammonium as N, COD, conductivity, pH

• Metals – chromium, lead, mercury, nickel, arsenic, copper, zinc, iron, aluminium

• Hydrocarbons – mineral oil

The foul water discharge sample (F) was analysed for the following suite of parameters:

• Total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, ionised ammonia/ammonium as N, nitrate as NO3, BOD, phosphorous, chloride, iron, pH

3.0 Results

This section summarises the surface water results reported for the May 2019 monitoring round. The laboratory results are presented in Appendix 01 and the tabulated surface water results and times series graphs are presented in Appendix 02.

3.1 Monthly Surface Water Results – May 2019 The results for the sample taken at E and F on the 30th May 2019 can be seen in Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 respectively.

4.0 Discussion

4.1 Overview Results were compared with licence emissions limits, proposed trigger and action values, and EQS values. The trigger and action values were calculated taking account available data to November 2018. The action values also took into consideration the EQS values and the trigger action values for lead, zinc, copper and mercury were reduced in November 2018 to take account of the EQS.

For Foul Water Sample F, one parameter continues to exceed the licence emission limit. Phosphorous has a concentration of 1.63mg/l, and the licence emission limit is 1mg/l.

For Storm Water Sample E, two parameters exceed the proposed trigger action values; arsenic and iron.

In comparison to the previous round of sampling for F (09/04/19), the number of exceedances remained the same. Total Phosphorous (as P) exceeded the licence emission limit of 1mg/l in 2019, and in October and November 2018. Molloy Precast Products Ltd carried out services on the wastewater treatment system on three occasions in March 2019, after which the phosphorous concentration was found to be non-detectable. However, subsequent samples analysed by ALS, an accredited laboratory, showed phosphorous exceedances. Molloy Precast Products Ltd are currently investigating the wastewater treatment system with a view to carrying out additional changes and reduce the phosphorous concentration.

In comparison to the previous round of sampling for E (23/04/19), the number of exceedances remained the same. In April 2019, arsenic and iron exceeded trigger action values, and in May 2019 the results were the same except the concentration of both had increased. Arsenic and iron also exceeded trigger action values in September, November, and December 2018, February 2019, and March 2019.

4.2 Mitigation Measures

A planning permission application was recently been submitted on 13/05/2019 to Offaly County Council for the roofing of the D4 yard, Hangar building and E yard.

The procedure to be carried out in the event of any trigger level values exceedances is outlined in the IMS Operational Procedure version 03, reference IMS Reference 313-PRO-IMS. In addition to these procedures, additional mitigation measures have been carried out. Details of measures undertaken are presented in Appendix 03. The implementation of these measures is discussed in relation to individual parameters below:

on testing. The prepared soil sub sample that is analysed for asbestos will be retained for a

period of 6 months after the analysis date. All bulk samples will be retained for a period of 6

months after the analysis date. All samples received and not scheduled will be disposed of

one month after the date of receipt unless we are instructed to the contrary. Once the initial

period has expired, a storage charge will be applied for each month or part thereof until the

client cancels the request for sample storage. ALS reserve the right to charge for samples

received and stored but not analysed.

4. With respect to turnaround, we will always endeavour to meet client requirements

wherever possible, but turnaround times cannot be absolutely guaranteed due to so many

variables beyond our control.

5. We take responsibility for any test performed by sub -contractors (marked with an

asterisk). We endeavour to use UKAS/MCERTS Accredited Laboratories, who either

complete a quality questionnaire or are audited by ourselves. For some determinands there

are no UKAS/MCERTS Accredited Laboratories, in this instance a laboratory with a known

track record will be utilised.

6. When requested, the individual sub sample scheduled will be analysed in house for the

presence of asbestos fibres and asbestos containing material by our documented in house

method TM048 based on HSG 248 (2005), which is accredited to ISO17025. If a specific

asbestos fibre type is not found this will be reported as “Not detected”. If no asbestos fibre

types are found all will be reported as “Not detected” and the sub sample analysed deemed

to be clear of asbestos. If an asbestos fibre type is found it will be reported as detected (for

each fibre type found). Testing can be carried out on asbestos positive samples, but, due

to Health and Safety considerations, may be replaced by alternative tests or reported as No

Determination Possible (NDP). The quantity of asbestos present is not determined unless

specifically requested.

7. If no separate volatile sample is supplied by the client, or if a headspace or sediment is

present in the volatile sample, the integrity of the data may be compromised. This will be

flagged up as an invalid VOC on the test schedule and the result marked as deviating on

the test certificate.

8. If appropriate preserved bottles are not received preservation will take place on receipt .

However, the integrity of the data may be compromised.

9. NDP - No determination possible due to insufficient /unsuitable sample.

10. Metals in water are performed on a filtered sample, and therefore represent dissolved

metals - total metals must be requested separately.

11. Results relate only to the items tested.

12. LoDs (Limit of Detection) for wet tests reported on a dry weight basis are not corrected

for moisture content.

13. Surrogate recoveries - Surrogates are added to your sample to monitor recovery of

the test requested. A % recovery is reported, results are not corrected for the recovery

measured. Typical recoveries for organics tests are 70-130%. Recoveries in soils are

affected by organic rich or clay rich matrices . Waters can be affected by remediation fluids

or high amounts of sediment. Test results are only ever reported if all of the associated

quality checks pass; it is assumed that all recoveries outside of the values above are due

to matrix affect.

14. Product analyses - Organic analyses on products can only be semi -quantitative due to

the matrix effects and high dilution factors

employed.

15. Phenols monohydric by HPLC include phenol, cresols (2-Methylphenol, 3-Methylphenol

and 4-Methylphenol) and Xylenols (2,3 Dimethylphenol, 2,4 Dimethylphenol, 2,5

Dimethylphenol, 2,6 Dimethylphenol, 3,4 Dimethyphenol, 3,5 Dimethylphenol).

16. Total of 5 speciated phenols by HPLC includes Phenol, 2,3,5-Trimethyl Phenol,

2-Isopropylphenol, Cresols and Xylenols (as detailed in 15).

17. Stones/debris are not routinely removed. We always endeavour to take a

representative sub sample from the received sample.

18. In certain circumstances the method detection limit may be elevated due to the sample

being outside the calibration range. Other factors that may contribute to this include

possible interferences. In both cases the sample would be diluted which would cause the

method detection limit to be raised.

19. Mercury results quoted on soils will not include volatile mercury as the analysis is

performed on a dried and crushed sample.

20. For leachate preparations other than Zero Headspace Extraction (ZHE) volatile loss

may occur.

Identification of Asbestos in Bulk Materials & Soils

The results for identification of asbestos in bulk materials are obtained from supplied

bulk materials which have been examined to determine the presence of asbestos fibres

using ALS (Hawarden) in-house method of transmitted/polarised light microscopy and

central stop dispersion staining, based on HSG 248 (2005).

The results for identification of asbestos in soils are obtained from a homogenised sub

sample which has been examined to determine the presence of asbestos fibres using

ALS (Hawarden) in-house method of transmitted/polarised light microscopy and central

stop dispersion staining, based on HSG 248 (2005).

Visual Estimation Of Fibre Content

Estimation of fibre content is not permitted as part of our UKAS accredited test other

than: - Trace - Where only one or two asbestos fibres were identified.

Further guidance on typical asbestos fibre content of manufactured products can

be found in HSG 264.

The identification of asbestos containing materials and soils falls within our

schedule of tests for which we hold UKAS accreditation, however opinions,

interpretations and all other information contained in the report are outside the

scope of UKAS accreditation.

Sample Deviations

Asbestos

General21. For the BSEN 12457-3 two batch process to allow the cumulative release to be

calculated, the volume of the leachate produced is measured and filtered for all tests .

We therefore cannot carry out any unfiltered analysis. The tests affected include volatiles

GCFID/GCMS and all subcontracted analysis.

22. We are accredited to MCERTS for sand, clay and loam/topsoil, or any of these

materials - whether these are derived from naturally occurring soil profiles, or from

fill/made ground, as long as these materials constitute the major part of the sample .

Other coarse granular material such as concrete, gravel and brick are not accredited if

they comprise the major part of the sample.

23. Analysis and identification of specific compounds using GCFID is by retention time

only, and we routinely calibrate and quantify for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzenes and

xylenes (BTEX). For total volatiles in the C5-C12 range, the total area of the

chromatogram is integrated and expressed as ug /kg or ug/l. Although this analysis is

commonly used for the quantification of gasoline range organics (GRO), the system will

also detect other compounds such as chlorinated solvents, and this may lead to a falsely

high result with respect to hydrocarbons only. It is not possible to specifically identify

these non-hydrocarbons, as standards are not routinely run for any other compounds ,

and for more definitive identification, volatiles by GCMS should be utilised.

24. Tentatively Identified Compounds (TICs) are non-target peaks in VOC and SVOC

analysis. All non-target peaks detected with a concentration above the LoD are subjected

to a mass spectral library search. Non-target peaks with a library search confidence of

>75% are reported based on the best mass spectral library match. When a non-target

peak with a library search confidence of
