the eve of regional elections the government ignores the opinion of the Regions and approves the new Legislative Decree on the criteria for the location of nuclear facilities, ignoring the opposition of most of the regions and by choosing not to wait for the opinion the Joint Conference.
It 's a bad sign, especially near the regional vote in 2010: affirming In fact, a line dirigiste and contrary to the principle of sincere cooperation between government departments. The legislative decree is approved by the Council of Ministers against almost all the regions (with the exception of Veneto, Lombardy and Friuli Venezia Giulia), which rejected the document in their failure to meet the competing powers of the regions with regard to certification of the sites, single authorization and consent of nuclear facilities only for the national repository. This goes against the Title V of the Constitution and evades the obligation to seek the opinion of the Joint Conference established the so-called nuclear Delegation, Law 99/2009, which art. 25 states that the decrees of the delegation are adopted "On the proposal of Minister of Economic Development, in consultation with the Minister and the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, after obtaining the opinion of the Joint Conference and subsequent opinion of the competent parliamentary committees."
WWF Italy in this context:
- supports the just demands of the regions that is the location of the plant to the single license for their operation can not be effective without strong agreement with the regions directly concerned;
- believes that it is a paradox that the so-called nuclear strategy is not included in the national energy strategy (which must consider the mix of energy sources, including primarily those alternatives) that had to be ready by December 2009, as established by Decree 112/2008, 133/2008 law today;
- incongruous considering that the National Map of the areas potentially suitable for the location of the storage of nuclear waste, which in the opinion of 'association must be included in the nuclear strategy, is not subject to Strategic Environmental Assessment (the Decree in question does not provide);
- points out that it is against EU legislation that the Environmental Impact Assessment on the individual plant projects acquired to give the items covered by the SEA on plans and programs: it is, in fact, assessments at different scales and separated, as established by the Commission In the European Directive 2001/42/EC;
- considers the excessive power of indefensible Sogin SpA, which are improperly handled according to the association (in addition to the construction and operation of the storage of nuclear waste) is also drafting the National Charter of the areas potentially appropriate to the location of the deposit (which would be more natural to entrust the Agency Nuclear) or bilateral negotiations with the regions (that should be handled by the relevant ministries: firstly, the Ministry for Economic Development);
- consider non-transparent and without any control over the provision of a propaganda campaign in support of private enterprises (nuclear) with public money: that adds another joke at the expense of taxpayers who already pay the costs of nuclear salty, not feasible and economically affordable, as well as dangerous from the standpoint of environment and security against terrorist and military threats.
