ArcelorMittal Italia Concludes 1st Phase of Emission Scenario for 6 Million Tonnes
ArcelorMittal Italia announced that the first phase of study of the emission scenario with respect to the authorized production of 6 million tonnes per year has been concluded. This is preparatory and necessary to arrive at a new elaboration of the Health Damage Assessment, as part of the review procedure of the Integrated Environmental Authorization pursuant to the Prime Ministerial Decree of 29 September 2017, initiated by the Ministry of the Environment, following the request presented by the Mayor of Taranto on 21 May last.
For the entire duration of this first phase, ArcelorMittal Italia, for what it was responsible for, has made available all the data and information available through the support of its technicians, in a transparent and collaborative manner.
In relation to the same proceeding, ArcelorMittal Italia, as manager of the Taranto steel plant, presented last week a precautionary appeal in relation to the decree to start reviewing the AIA issued by the Ministry of the Environment for purely precautionary purposes. Do not lose the right to protect your rights - ArcelorMittal Italia specifies - it does not want in any way to oppose the spirit of full and active collaboration that the company is demonstrating and wants to continue having with the competent authorities. Finally, ArcelorMittal Italia underlines that it is seriously committed in carrying out all the interventions of the Environmental Plan, in compliance with the deadlines established in the AIA decree.
