These are not subsequently destroyed by the fire and are emitted into the air we breathe. These pollutants can have profound long-term health implications. Tiny amounts of some pollutants emitted by the backyard burning of chlorinated products like certain types of plastics and solvents. These are sufficient to have undesirable health effects. They can also contaminate our back-gardens when they precipitate out of the air and land on the ground. This type of uncontrolled burning should be avoided at all costs. Many of these are highly toxic and cancer-causing substances. Some products which PVC may be present in are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Containers for food<\/li>\n<li>Cosmetics and pharmaceutical products packaging<\/li>\n<li>Children\u2019s toys<\/li>\n<li>Blister and shrink wraps<\/li>\n<li>Drainpipes<\/li>\n<li>Vinyl tubing etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Polystyrenes and styrenes: These are used in many packaging products like foam cups, fast food trays, meat trays, deli food containers, plastic forks and spoons, etc. Upon burning these emit gases which can damage eye and mucous membranes if doses are high enough.<\/p>\n<p>Painted woods: If the paint is lead based (especially the older paints), burning can emit lead laden fumes which can be easily inhaled by by-standers.<\/p>\n<p>Polyurethanes: Found in curtains, furniture foams, adhesives, wood finishes, and etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Law<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Waste Management (Prohibition of Waste Disposal by Burning) Regulations 2009, as amended.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Waste Management (Prohibition of Waste Disposal by Burning) Regulations 2009 came into force on the 29th July 2009 and was amended again on 29th December 2017. The main points of the legislation are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0It is an offence to burn any type of waste including garden waste such as brush, scrub, pruning, etc.<\/li>\n<li>The use of any device to burn waste, such as the \u201cdomestic waste incinerator\u201d, stoves or open fires is an offence.<\/li>\n<li>The owner or occupier of lands or a facility must take all reasonable steps to ensure that waste is not burnt on their lands or facility illegally.<\/li>\n<li>There is an exemption to allow untreated\/uncontaminated wood, trees, trimmings, leaves, bushes or similar materials generated by agricultural practices as a very last resort to be disposed of by burning and then only after filling in the required Statutory Declaration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>(This exemption only applies to waste generated by agricultural practices. It does not apply to leaves\/grass\/bushes in a domestic garden for example). The exemption applies only when all other options of disposal, such as reduction, reuse, and recycling by shredding, composting or wood chipping, are found not to be practicable or economically viable.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There is an onus on the waste holder to investigate all other more environmentally friendly methods of treatment of green waste before disposal by burning.<\/li>\n<li>The holder of the permissible waste will have to <strong>inform the local authority by Statutory Declaration<\/strong> in advance of the proposed burning of such waste. Holders of permissible waste, who dispose of the waste by burning without filling in the required statutory declaration form are in breach of the regulation.<\/li>\n<li>Strict conditions apply when using burning as a means of disposal of green waste (generated by agricultural practices) such as limiting nuisance and protection of human health and not causing environmental pollution.<\/li>\n<li>Since the 1st January 2018, all burning is not allowed unless an application is made for a Certificate of Registration under the Waste Management (Facility Permit and Registration) Regulations 2007, as amended.<\/li>\n<li>The use of untreated or uncontaminated wood waste and other similar materials is permitted in barbeques for the purpose of cooking food.<\/li>\n<li>Burning of untreated or uncontaminated wood waste or similar materials may take place at events as may be determined locally by the local authority.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Any farmer intending to burn agricultural waste should adhere to the fire safety checklist:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is the fire absolutely necessary?<\/li>\n<li>Do I have the ability to stop the fire if the need arises?<\/li>\n<li>The fire should be located more than 1 mile from any woodland or forest.<\/li>\n<li>Am I certain that my property and my neighbour&#8217;s property will be safe?<\/li>\n<li>Am I sure that smoke from the fire will not cause a nuisance to others, road users and neighbours in particular?<\/li>\n<li>Have I alerted my neighbours and the relevant authorities of my intention to burn?<\/li>\n<li>Have I sufficient help and equipment on standby to control the planned fire?<\/li>\n<li>Have I adequate means of communication and the necessary contact details should an emergency arise?<\/li>\n<li>Prior to commencement of the controlled burning, I will notify the Fire Service directly by dialling 999 or 112 to advise the operator that I am carrying out the controlled burning, giving the location address, and confirming that I will ring back when the burning is complete.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Please also note other relevant legislation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Air Pollution Acts.\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>It is an offence to cause nuisance or air pollution by burning waste.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Wildlife Acts.\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>It is an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy, during the period beginning on the 1st day of March and ending on the 31st day of August in any year, (i) any vegetation growing on any land not then cultivated, and (ii) any vegetation growing in any hedge or ditch<\/p>\n<p><strong>Procedures for farmers wishing to burn green waste generated by agricultural practices<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The applicant must submit a signed application form.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/docstore.kerrycoco.ie\/KCCWebsite\/environment\/burningnewform.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Application Form for Burning of Green Waste<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mulching as a means of waste management<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An alternative way of managing woody materials cleared from agricultural lands would be to mulch, chip or shred materials. The final product then becomes a resource that can be used for landscaping or gardening purposes on your property.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Real Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The only real solution is to minimise the amount of waste of which we have to dispose. We can achieve this through changes in what we buy. We all must cut down on the volumes of waste, which we need to dispose of by avoidance and reuse.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reuse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We should assess our waste to look for reuse opportunities. We should see if there are any beneficial reuse options for items and materials that would otherwise be recycled. For example, empty containers, are they returnable or reusable elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recycling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recycling is the next best option. We should separate our waste into the various waste types. Those that are recyclable, i.e. glass and beverage cans should be brought to bring-banks making sure to do so as part of another journey.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Home Composting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Learn how to compost your waste at home.

These are not subsequently destroyed by the fire and are emitted into the air we breathe. These pollutants can have profound long-term health implications. Tiny amounts of some pollutants emitted by the backyard burning of chlorinated products like certain types of plastics and solvents. These are sufficient to have undesirable health effects. They can also contaminate our back-gardens when they precipitate out of the air and land on the ground. This type of uncontrolled burning should be avoided at all costs. Many of these are highly toxic and cancer-causing substances. Some products which PVC may be present in are:<\/p><ul><li>Containers for food<\/li><li>Cosmetics and pharmaceutical products packaging<\/li><li>Children\u2019s toys<\/li><li>Blister and shrink wraps<\/li><li>Drainpipes<\/li><li>Vinyl tubing etc.<\/li><\/ul><p>Polystyrenes and styrenes: These are used in many packaging products like foam cups, fast food trays, meat trays, deli food containers, plastic forks and spoons, etc. Upon burning these emit gases which can damage eye and mucous membranes if doses are high enough.<\/p><p>Painted woods: If the paint is lead based (especially the older paints), burning can emit lead laden fumes which can be easily inhaled by by-standers.<\/p><p>Polyurethanes: Found in curtains, furniture foams, adhesives, wood finishes, and etc.<\/p><p><strong>The Law<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>The Waste Management (Prohibition of Waste Disposal by Burning) Regulations 2009, as amended.<\/strong><\/p><p>The Waste Management (Prohibition of Waste Disposal by Burning) Regulations 2009 came into force on the 29th July 2009 and was amended again on 29th December 2017. The main points of the legislation are as follows:<\/p><ol><li>Except as detailed from point 4 to 10 below, it is an offence to burn any type of waste including garden waste such as brush, scrub, pruning, etc.<\/li><li>The use of any device to burn waste, such as the \u201cdomestic waste incinerator\u201d, stoves or open fires is an offence.<\/li><li>The owner or occupier of lands or a facility must take all reasonable steps to ensure that waste is not burnt on their lands or facility illegally.<\/li><li>There is an exemption to allow untreated\/uncontaminated wood, trees, trimmings, leaves, bushes or similar materials generated by agricultural practices as a very last resort to be disposed of by burning and then only after filling in the required Statutory Declaration.<\/li><\/ol><p>(This exemption only applies to waste generated by agricultural practices. It does not apply to leaves\/grass\/bushes in a domestic garden for example). The exemption applies only when all other options of disposal, such as reduction, reuse, and recycling by shredding, composting or wood chipping, are found not to be practicable or economically viable.<\/p><ol start=\"5\"><li>There is an onus on the waste holder to investigate all other more environmentally friendly methods of treatment of green waste before disposal by burning.<\/li><li>The holder of the permissible waste will have to <strong>inform the local authority by Statutory Declaration<\/strong> in advance of the proposed burning of such waste. Holders of permissible waste, who dispose of the waste by burning without filling in the required statutory declaration form are in breach of the regulation.<\/li><li>Strict conditions apply when using burning as a means of disposal of green waste (generated by agricultural practices) such as limiting nuisance and protection of human health and not causing environmental pollution.<\/li><li>Since the 1st January 2018, all burning is not allowed unless an application is made for a Certificate of Registration under the Waste Management (Facility Permit and Registration) Regulations 2007, as amended.<\/li><li>The use of untreated or uncontaminated wood waste and other similar materials is permitted in barbeques for the purpose of cooking food.<\/li><li>Burning of untreated or uncontaminated wood waste or similar materials may take place at events as may be determined locally by the local authority.<\/li><\/ol><p><strong>Any farmer intending to burn agricultural waste should adhere to the fire safety checklist:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li>Is the fire absolutely necessary?<\/li><li>Do I have the ability to stop the fire if the need arises?<\/li><li>The fire should be located more than 1 mile from any woodland or forest.<\/li><li>Am I certain that my property and my neighbour's property will be safe?<\/li><li>Am I sure that smoke from the fire will not cause a nuisance to others, road users and neighbours in particular?<\/li><li>Have I alerted my neighbours and the relevant authorities of my intention to burn?<\/li><li>Have I sufficient help and equipment on standby to control the planned fire?<\/li><li>Have I adequate means of communication and the necessary contact details should an emergency arise?<\/li><li>Prior to commencement of the controlled burning, I will notify the Fire Service directly by dialling 999 or 112 to advise the operator that I am carrying out the controlled burning, giving the location address, and confirming that I will ring back when the burning is complete.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Please also note other relevant legislation:<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>The Air Pollution Acts.\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>It is an offence to cause nuisance or air pollution by burning waste.<\/p><p><strong>The Wildlife Acts.\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>It is an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy, during the period beginning on the 1st day of March and ending on the 31st day of August in any year, (i) any vegetation growing on any land not then cultivated, and (ii) any vegetation growing in any hedge or ditch<\/p><p><strong>Procedures for farmers wishing to burn green waste generated by agricultural practices<\/strong><\/p><p>The applicant must submit a signed application form.\u00a0 Please include the following (1)\u00a0Proof that cost of mulching is not economically viable, (2) Photo of nature and volume of waste, (3) Discovery map (Scale 1:50 000) with 'X' marked clearly on location where burning is intended.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/docstore.kerrycoco.ie\/KCCWebsite\/environment\/burning.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Application Form for Burning of Green Waste<\/strong><\/a><\/p><p><strong>Mulching as a means of waste management<\/strong><\/p><p>An alternative way of managing woody materials cleared from agricultural lands would be to mulch, chip or shred materials.

We can achieve this through changes in what we buy. We all must cut down on the volumes of waste, which we need to dispose of by avoidance and reuse.<\/p><p><strong>Reuse<\/strong><\/p><p>We should assess our waste to look for reuse opportunities. We should see if there are any beneficial reuse options for items and materials that would otherwise be recycled. For example, empty containers, are they returnable or reusable elsewhere.<\/p><p><strong>Recycling<\/strong><\/p><p>Recycling is the next best option. We should separate our waste into the various waste types.
