2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The pig unit elevation is approximately 120 - 125 metres above sea level. The site is located on

the farm owned by the family of Michael Queally (brother) but the pig unit is owned by John

Queally. The entrance lane to the pig unit is shared by the adjoining dairy and beef farm. The pig

unit is located on the north eastern slopes of Slievenamona (164 m above sea level) and adjoining

small hills in Ballyvohalane. The land on and around the site consists of undulating farm land

with small hills in the east and north of the area. The soils are generally dry. Kill is the nearest

village and is located 3.75 km directly south of the unit. The site drains eastwards.

The facility is licensed for 560 sows and progeny.

The average number of pigs on the site in 2010 was as follows; 292 dry sows, 58 farrowing sows,

3 boars, 134 gilts, 501 weaners and 71 fat pigs.

3.0 SUMMARY INFORMATI0N

3.1 Pig Manure Storage

There is approximately 6,000 m3 of pig manure storage of which approximately 1,000 m3 is

uncovered.

Available storage capacity figures were not recorded in 2010.

3.2 Alterations to Landbank in 2010

There were no alterations to the land-bank in 2010

3.3 Actual Pig Manure Applications –vs- Planned Pig Manure Applications in 2010

Summary data of actual application is attached in appendix 1. According to the 2010 fertilizer

plan 13,200 m3 of pig manure can be applied to lands available to take pig manure from the site.

Approximately 6,985 m3 of pig manure was removed from the pig unit in 2010. There were no

over applications in 2010.

Pig manure samples were not taken in 2010. From previous samples the slurry content is as

follows; 3.8% DM, 0.61 kgs of P and 3.876 kgs of N per m3. For the fertilizer plan the N & P

content as per Si 610 of 2010 was used ie 4.2 kgs N/kg and 0.8 kgs P/kg per m3 and N is 50%

available.

3.4 Waste not destined for Landspreading (appendix 2)

3.9 Training

Training records are maintained on site.

3.10 Water Analysis Results

3,023 m3 of water were consumed in 2010. Ground water monitoring site GW 1 has to be tested

once per year. The surface water outlet of has to be tested quarterly and visually inspected

weekly. Two well samples and 2 surface water samples were taken in 2010.

3.10.1 Ground water quality

3.10.1.1 Ground water Nitrates.

The analysis results are shown in appendix 4. Some values of samples in 2010 exceed guide

values.

3.10.1.2 Ground water Faecal Coliforms

The coliform count was less than 1 in 2010.
