Count (To propel Club Port of Taras) claims a future for the portualità of Taranto



Until yesterday Taranto, being to how much to the mayor and the president of the Harbour Authority reported veterans from the missions to Rome in order to discuss about the future of the apulian port, it was the Italian port at which the government would have aimed for its enormous potentialities and strategicità not only for the city, but for the entire Country and the same Europe, while today he seems that he agrees to aggregate the Jonian port of call to the adriatic ports of Bari, Brindisi and Manfredonia depriving it of an independent representation.

President of the The International Propeller Club Port of Taras, Michele Conte has denounced, specifying that in National the Strategic Plan of the Portualità and about the Logistics approved of in recent days from the Council of Ministers is not spoken about the future of the port of Taranto, and with it of possible a various development of the city and the entire territory.

In the Plan - it has specified - it is not spoken about the possibility to intercept traffics in alternative to the transfer of the containers, activity that to Taranto that not is more, and in order to compensate the reduction of the industrial activities (steel and oil), "activity these last ones - it has observed Count - than for all the great ports are of base for the maintenance and the progress of general the harbour activities". So as it pilots, tugs, ormeggiatori, boen, enterprises of prevention and environmental safety, harbour raccomandatari, customs are the technical-nautical services (listi and operating in general terms) that - she has emphasized - if they do not have a volume consisting and a diversity of traffic, cannot have consistency, quality and adequate level. "The same harbour operators, in a depressed truth - he has added to president of Propeller Club of Taranto - deskill themselves, forgiveness numerical and qualitative consistency and withdraw in the national and international competitiveness". He seems - he has observed Count - than in the Plan of the Logistics introduced to the Council of Ministers "of all this does not speak myself".

"As it can be spoken then about excellence objectives of the Plan - it has criticized moreover Count - if, to alternate days, they jump the numbers of the Harbour Authorities and of the amalgamations of the ports, it is still not succeeded to comprise. There were - it has found - of the indications, just in order to simplify and to give sense to the rationalization, that they had carried Assoporti convene that they went maintained the Harbour Authorities in the port-Cores, that is those recognized "as strategic" from Europe and the relative credit schemes. On the base of these considerations the president of Assoporti has remembered Count - in a recent interview he asserts that "never Ancona and Ravenna could be entirety" asserting that it is Ravenna that Ancona is various and not complementary strategic ports. After several protests of the territories, in the Plan prepared, but not discussed by the government, also the new "harbour organizations" in number of thirteen with Taranto aggregate to Bari, Brindisi and Manfredonia were previewed. The Apulia - president of Propeller Club has rimarcato - is the only Region that it sees accorpati four ports very on two seas and with very various specificities and of sure, those of Taranto, not homogenous with those of the other ports, all in row on the Adriatic. Taranto, port of the homonymous Gulf, is on the Jonio sea on which three regions appear: Calabria, Basilicata and Apulia".

Count question who, in this context, must "in future represent the sacrosanct rights of Taranto for having at least an independent harbour entity" and "in order to program a future of rebirth of the economy tarantina that - it has bitterly concluded president of Propeller Club - always sets off more towards the model of Greece today rather than of always osannata Magna Grecia".
