An Bord Pleanala has approved, with conditions, permission for a gas-fired electricity generating plant in Co Meath.
In March planning permission subject to 22 conditions, was granted by Meath County Council for the plant near Duleek. It will be jointly developed by Marathon Power in Cork and Scottish and Southern Energy on a 30-acre site at Platin, about four miles from Drogheda.
Seven groups and individuals appealed to An Bord Pleanala against the decision of the local authority.
