The Department of Transport is clarifiying the exact location of the proposed sewage treatment plant in Peel.

A map produced by the DoT shows a row of four fields, on a north-south axis, between the Patrick Road to the west and the River Neb to the east.

Fields three and four are earmarked for development, which means the sewage plant would be about 400 metres from the power station.

However, the closest homes would be significantly nearer.

From top to bottom, the attached section of map shows the power station, fields one and two, and part of field three, coloured pink, at the bottom.

The nearest houses to field three are halfway down the illustration at the far left.
