The toxic diesel sludge being removed from Stephenstown Pond in Knockbridge on Saturday
Around 2,000 litres of toxic fuel laundering waste was discovered dumped in the north of the county this morning.
Two cubes of the toxic waste were found in the Dungooley area of Kilcurry.
The discovery follows the dumping of 3,000 litres of the oil laundering waste at the entrance to Stephenstown Pond on Saturday.
One of the three cubes dumped there were leaking with local county councillor Declan Breathnach hitting out at those responsible.
He said: “This is the fifth such occurrence in as many months at this location.
This location is close to a watercourse that flows into the River Fane, which supplies Dundalk and environs with public drinking water. Shame on those responsible for such activities.”
