  • Irving Oil avoids conviction over Whitegate oil spill Breach of environmental licence conditions · Co. Cork

    On 22 January 2024 a gas oil release at the Whitegate refinery in Cork Harbour, owned and operated by Irving Oil, a company the RTE report describes as Canadian-owned, saw an estimated 14,200 litres released, some of which leaked into the harbour. The Environmental Protection Agency prosecuted Irving Oil in the District Court for an alleged breach of licence conditions under the Environmental Protection Agency Act, 1992. At the hearing on 21 February 2025 the judge ordered a €2,500 donation to the RNLI in Ballycotton and adjourned the matter to 27 March, saying he would be inclined to give the benefit of the Probation Act if the donation was made.
