Local pollution risk

We achieved our target of installing 100 per cent secondary protection of diesel tanks at our fixed installations by March 2005. In January 2005, approximately 1,000 litres of oil was leaked to the ground in Ireland. A thorough clean-up operation took place of the contaminated land.

There were no environmental fines or enforcement actions against our operating businesses last year. We went on to achieve our target of 100 per cent secondary protection of diesel tanks at our fixed installations by March 2005.
