Residents of Ballyshannon are fundraising to take judicial review of permission granted to a quarry in their area
An Bord Pleanala granted permission, on appeal, in June to Kilsaran for the extraction of 3 million tonnes of sand and gravel from the Racefield site.
Kildare County Council refused permission for the project in November 2019 - the firm subsequently referred it to ABP.
Over 200 objects were lodged from local people and organisations.
An open-air public meeting on the development took place on Friday.
Geraldine O'Connor is of Ballyshannon Action Group.
She joined Eoin Beatty on Monday's edition of Kildare Today.
An Bord Pleanala's inspector's report, decision and order for the development are available here
