The Malta Independent speaks to geologist Dr Peter Gatt who says that the seabed between Malta and Gozo presents several geological challenges to construct a tunnel. Dr Gatt told the newspaper he fears the project could prove hazardous and ‘cost lives’ in the construction period.
Another story in The Malta Independent says that WastServ Amenity Sites are out of space after an accumulation of electronic waste. According to EU directives, the waste material classified as WEEE should be exported for re-use and recycling but due to a series of obstacles the process has stalled, and the material left to block Civil Amenity Sites until a solution is found.
