Bramsen's new sludge plan reveals: Great uncertainty about the pollution | BT Politik - www.bt.dk Ten days ago, Minister of Transport Trine Bramsen announced that it will be dumping sludge from Lynetteholmen into the sea. But now it turns out that there is actually a lot of uncertainty about the pollution by using the alternative way of getting rid of the sludge. It appears from the powerpoints that Trine Bramsen presented to the conciliation parties behind Lynetteholmen on Thursday at a closed meeting in the Folketing, but B.T. has now come into possession of. As has already been promoted, the proposal is about using the sludge to replace some of the land from outside that will make the artificial island with room for 30,000 citizens. Documentation: Here is the first page of the plan for the new alternative to using the sludge that can no longer be dumped in Køge Bay. B.T. is in possession of the entire plan. Under the keyword 'environmental consequences' it says that the sludge or 'seabed material' as it is called on the powerpoints contains more nutrients than the soil that would otherwise have been used to make the artificial island. So it potentially pollutes even more. And under the topic 'consequences for urban development', it says that there can be challenges in getting the new buildings on Lynetteholmen to stand properly firm when there is sludge in the ground where they are built. "We were presented with something that gives new uncertainty," says Anne Valentina Berthelsen, SF's transport spokesperson. Here is Anne Valentina Berthelsen, who is SF's transport spokesperson. At the same time, the presentation states that the dumping of the sludge in Køge Bay 'does not entail significant negative consequences for the marine environment.' »I scolded Trine Bramsen at the meeting. I told her that it looks a little strange from the outside, "says Anne Valentina Berthelsen, who yesterday came with harsh criticism of Trine Bramsen for using a bad excuse not to answer questions about Lynetteholmen. Also in blue block there is great wonder. "A unilateral stop to clapping from Lynetteholm has virtually no effect on the amount of clapping in the Baltic Sea and just as little an effect on the amount of nutrients in the southern part of the Sound," says Ole Birk Olesen from the Liberal Alliance. Ole Birk Olesen is transport spokesman for the Liberal Alliance. As has also been said, the new way of using the sludge will mean that less soil is needed from the outside for the artificial island. And less land means less money to receive land. As there will also be extra costs for housing and infrastructure, the new alternative way will cost more than it costs to dump the sludge in Køge Bay. B.T. has asked Trine Bramsen what she says to the fact that the new way of using the sludge has quite a lot of environmental uncertainty, and also costs far more than dumping it in Køge Bay. »The conciliation circle has been presented with proposals for an alternative to clapping, and the circle will discuss this further in the coming week. It is the conciliation circle that must make the final decision on the alternative, "she says.
