According to the company, “the authorization deed contains various technical and procedural requirements that Snam will examine in the next few days to allow for the timely start of the works and to do everything possible to dispose of the operating unit within the foreseen times”.
There services conferencewhich closed on 21 October, in fact issued a positive opinion with numerous indications, now attached to the authorization: fromIss calling for “a meteorological station in the port” and “two stations for measuring air quality in inhabited areas” to the Superintendence which requires the presence of an archaeologist for “any excavation and earth moving work” for the onshore pipeline, up toMaritime District Office which asks for “a specific ordinance to regulate the conditions and limits for entry and exit from the port of the Frsu unit and the Lngc” as “such maneuvers are not compatible with the simultaneous carrying out of other naval maneuvers in the same basin , and must be carried out exclusively at night “. Issues also raised by the mayor of Piombino, Francesco Ferrari, which reaffirmed the intention of challenge the authorization before the TAR. “The whole process leaks water from all sides – he observed Ferrari – and lays the concrete foundations on which we will build the appeal. It matters little if the agreement and the relative authorization are conditional on the acceptance of the memorandum; a document that seems more an attempt to wash one’s conscience than a concrete instrument for the revitalization of the territory “. Precisely on the memorandum the neighboring municipalities complain that” there is no trace of Follonica, Scarlino or Castiglione della Pescaia “. The committees finally ask that the Government consider an alternative site.
