Valencia Life 25.12.05
ANOTHER INVESTIGATION (VL)
The European Union yesterday continued its attacks on the Valencian Community by admitting that it was now intending to investigate the project for the Castellon/Costa de Azahar Airport. The intentions were made clear after MEP Willy Meyer of the IU party stated that the airport 'as has been planned by the local authorities is being built outside the area that was studied for the environmental impact of the installation, and consequently this is resulting in the destruction of forests and artistic monuments'. His second allegation was that the environmental study for the airport project was not compatible with the current Valencian laws in this regard, whils this third allegation concerned the Grey Eagles who use the area to breed and feed, ' and only certain nests will be preserved. EU Environmental Commissioner Stavros Dimas stated that he was writing to both the Spanish Government and the Valencian Authorities in order that he receive better documentation on the project, which has been on hold since last October.
