| Abstract: | We have been assured that the design of the proposed Gozo tunnel would not adversely impact the seabed as excavations would take place on land. Even if we assume this would be the case the project would still have environmental impacts. For instance, where would the millions of cubic metres of excavated material be deposited? It is known that Malta's disused quarries are nearing saturation point as areas for the dumping of demolition and construction waste. So would such waste be taken away by barge to the spoil the seabed? |
