Resistance from Vorarlberg: concerns about the nuclear waste camp at Stadel ZH

In the recent discussion about the planned nuclear waste depth in Stadel ZH, representatives of the state of Vorarlberg have expressed significant concerns. On Thursday they demanded a cross -border environmental impact assessment in Bregenz to better understand possible risks and to ensure the safety of the population.

The governor Markus Wallner and the environmental councilor Christian Gantner underlined the importance of high security standards, while they described the depth bearing as a herb that was difficult to help. They emphasized that the protection of people, nature and the environment must come first. The nuclear waste is planned in the "north of the Lägern" area, which is about 100 kilometers from Vorarlberg.

claims to Swiss authorities

Wallner and Gantner referred to the "convinced anti -nation of Vorarlberg", which is even anchored in the constitution. The two politicians expressed that the risks that are based on nuclear power plants, especially for the parts of Vorarlberg, which border directly to Switzerland, are considered irresponsible. They asked the Swiss authorities to take the regional concerns seriously and take appropriate measures to ensure that all security standards are observed.

"We demand compliance with the highest security standards and the implementation of a cross -border environmental impact assessment," said Wallner and Gantner. Vorarlberg was actively involved in the ongoing process "Subject Plan Geological Department" and has formulated demands to Switzerland in this context. In the future, they want to work in dialogue with the Swiss authorities for a transparent and inclusive participation process.

Overall, the resistance from Vorarlberg shows how important a comprehensive and cross -border assessment of the consequences of such projects is, especially in an area that is as sensitive and potentially dangerous as the nuclear waste storage.
