| COVANTA AGENT, MR FRENCH |
You may have missed, as we did, this story
Arthur French (above), property developer, auctioneer and a former second row (at a guess) and an advisor to Covanta Energy, the American company wishing to build an inicinerator in Poolbeg.
What does Arthur know about garbage?
Who knows but he is a friend of Environment minister Phil Hogan. Another golfing pal. They once played with Tiger Woods and Mary McAleese’s husband in a four-ball sponsored by Arthur’s company, French Estates.
Anyway, on July 8 (the last day of the Dail term), Phil dropped a levy on incineration [that had been] proposed by John Gormley.
It was among a number of demands being sought by Covanta.
Everyone denies everything.
Bada bing, as they say in the New Jersey municipal waste industry. And that’s that.
