lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, an environmental disaster is waiting to happen in Aughanish, County Limerick, Ireland. The Rusal Alumina plant refinery produces alumina powder, in a chemical process which leaves behind toxic waste. The company and the Irish Government have incredibly classified this as non-hazardous, despite the fact that, when a similar plant had a serious breach in Hungary in 2010, it released highly toxic caustic sludge. Between 20 million and 50 million tonnes of this hazardous waste sit in an area of over 250 acres on the banks of the Shannon estuary in a pond which has never been properly lined. This waste has already become airborne, damaging the health of people in the region and damaging the farmland. If there is a major spillage, it would see the water, air, soil and livestock of the area destroyed. Ordinary farmers in the region are being forced to pay thousands of euro to install new septic tanks at their homes. Yet we have the biggest septic tank in all of Europe sitting there, without proper regard to the massive environmental dangers it poses."@en1
