Shell contracted vessels ignore safety procedures once again on the proposed Corrib gas project. Several times a day there is a mini convoy that shoots back and forth between Ballyglass and Rossport, and this traffic intensifies at knocking-off time in the evening. Early risers in Glengad last Sunday morning (15/08/2010) were greeted by about two-dozen dolphins frolicking in the glorious sunshine. Several groups of porpoise and bottlenose dolphin are regular visitors to the Bay – a marine Special Area of Conservation – and they were making the most of the spell of good weather at the weekend, much to the delight of locals and assembled tourists. |
