You could always scrap some facilities until you're back under the domed limit.
Another option would be to keep a conditions improvement plant on all of your breathable planets, just in case.

"You could always scrap some facilities until you're back under the domed limit"

Why would you want to do THAT? The extra facilities will keep functioning, so you're wasting production..

Another way excessive facilities can happen (but unlikely in this case) is if you don't have the Advanced Storage Techniques trait, and take control of a world from someone who does have it.

You should have gotten a Log entry about "atmospheric bombs" when the intel op turned the planet Deadly.

Thanks for all the help guys but turns out I was being a bit of a pillock. I DID indeed move a population of methane breathers onto my oxygen planet and hence planet became domed and I lost the use of the extra facilities - bad move. Now I will have to move them off again. When I load my transport do i get the choice of which kind of population i want to move ie oxygen breathers or methane breathers? Or do I just have to move the whole lot.

Sorry about my misleading answers - thanks for the help from all of you!

You can pick and choose the population, but you have to use the "Transfer Cargo" command instead of "Load Cargo". This means if you're playing a simultaneous game you might lose some move points... wish SE4 had a system like Stars! where you could give all those complex orders about picking up and dropping stuff off...
