January 16, 2012
Three main present trade associations in the ports have written to the ministries of the Atmosphere and Infrastructures and the transports having emphasized the necessity to establish criteria for the release of the materials of escavo. Assiterminal (Italian Association Terminalisti Harbour) and Assologistica (Italian Association Enterprises of Logistics, Department stores and Refrigerators, Terminal Operators Portuiali, Interportuali and Aeroportuali), in representation of the harbour terminalisti, and Assoporti (Association Italian Ports), in representation of the Harbour Authorities, has explained that, "for the ports, the dredging of the backdrops is a strategic priority". Therefore they have asked the launch for I decree that it establishes "the criteria to observe for the release of the authorization to the immersion deliberated in sea of the materials of escavo".
In the missive the presidents of the three associations have placed the accent on the importance to realize participations of escavo in order competing with the European market and of the Mediterranean. For a reason or purpose esemplificativo, the characteristic indices of the traffic of the containers and also of the crocieristico traffic are evidenced, that they journey on ships of dimensions that need advanced backdrops to those current ones of many Italian ports.
Assiterminal, Assologistica and Assoporti have remembered that the sollicitation is born from the fact that for a long time the contents of I decree, an implementation previewed in the Environmental Code (decrees legislative 152/2006), is shared by the competent administrations, but they still turn out "arrest warrants" in the offices you premail.
Article 109 of I decree legislative, relative to the "immersion in sea of material deriving from activity of escavo and activity of puts down in sea of cables and conducts", it establishes among other things that "to the aim of the protection of the marine atmosphere and in compliance with the dispositions of the enforced international conventions in matter, it is allowed the immersion deliberated in sea from ships that is aircrafts and structures located in waters of the sea or contiguous withins to it, which spiagge, salty lagoons and ponds and coastal earthwork, of the following materials: a) material of escavo of salty seabeds or or emerged coastal lands; b) inert, material geologic inorganic and manufactured products to the fine solo I use, where by it is demonstrated to the compatibility and the environmental innocuità; c) material organic and inorganic of marine or salty origin, producing during the activity of fishing carried out in sea or salty lagoon or ponds".
