Money from Fira: Carlo Pace against the former mayor's explanations D'Alfonso
PESCARA.
After the explanation of some financial support from the Fira for services related to the City of Pescara to express doubts about the argument is the former mayor Charles Pace (Forza Italy).
THE TRUTH 'OF ALFONSO OF THE MONEY TAKEN FROM FIRA
' resale as on the funding that has provided in favor of Fira City of Pescara for the construction of two large panels that were posted last year on the Civic Tower. " The mayor spoke today
Luciano D'Alfonso after this morning's newspaper had put some into the cauldron of those who received money from Fira Masciarelli also the first city of Pescara.
"With that initiative, in fact, we were informed Pescaresi save the tower that was in danger of falling to pieces and threw the positive message of a city which was renewed from its symbols. I consider it a significant fact that those panels have not been achieved at the expense of the municipality, but with the intervention of a third party such as Fira, who paid directly to the company carrying, because this is how you join the company's effort to promote urban redevelopment and that the public authority carries out. Mentioned the episode of the panels refers to the Civic Tower voice brief "posters D'Alfonso" contained in the lists of contributions from Fira, as you can imagine from the fact that this item is included in the apportionment of contributions to entities and not individual personality.
In no way, however, FIRA has paid contributions for my campaign or policy initiatives, as evidenced by documentation that is now available to all.
At this point, I note that the item contained in the now famous pen drive about a contribution for the election of Mayor of Pescara and very clearly refers only to payments in favor of Forza Italy, and then quite clearly the costs which that party argued for the election and the candidate for mayor argued that Forza Italy. And as everyone knows that candidate was not me. I conclude by reiterating the administration as we address ourselves to involve third parties in the expenditure of public interventions in the field of corporate communication. By the end of November we will produce the panels such as those for the tower to the next (December-January) dell'Aurum inauguration. Even in this case will be a bank, company, a third party to bear the costs, as actual contribution to animation of the city. "
DOUBTS THE FORMER MAYOR CHARLES PACE
"I read very carefully the statements made by the Mayor of Pescara D'Alfonso," writes Charles PrimaDaNoi.it Peace, "on the funding provided by FIRA and reported in item "D'Alfonso posters, and frankly I was amazed and concerned by their contents, and what I mean.
He says that the Fira has actually paid a contribution, which is used for the construction of large advertising boards placed on the Tower and that this "could bring out a great planning for Pescara, without straining the coffers and allowing local businesses, and private banks to take part development of the City. "
also said that it will continue to interpret this form of public-private collaboration on other occasions, as in the case of former Aurum.
"Agreements between public and private institutions," continues the former mayor, "always happen through planning agreements which provide, among other things, their socio-economic conveniences, this also applies to any sponsorships. And it could not be otherwise because as the government must protect citizens' interests, the same way the "private" must take account of its conveniences, which are usually economic: if this assumption is lacking, because a private party should "pay" money, even for a sponsorship?
D'Alfonso's interpretation to be published at public-private relationship in the management of public affairs, frankly worries me as I think many people worry and I hope even those who should judge. One last consideration: how does the mayor to be so precise knowledge of the content "of the now famous pen-drive?". 11/03/2006 18:45

pipers Abruzzo -
The seaside town of Pescara, the largest urban agglomeration in the region (about 120,000 inhabitants), was founded in 1927 by fusion of two ancient cities to the north and south of the river Pescara (Pescara, respectively, Castellammare Adriatico and now Portanuova). The unification of the two locations gave rise to the establishment of the new Province of Pescara, the fourth and the smallest in the region.
Today, after a rapid and prodigious growth, the city is the main tourist and commercial Abruzzo, thanks to its busy airport ( which has extended its reach outside the borders of continental), equipped with its port-channel (?) and its modern railway station.
The tourist port "Marina di Pescara" is considered one of the most modern and efficient in the Adriatic .(!?)
The city, despite having lost most of its ancient and charming old town because of the bombing during the Second World War, still has a remarkable heritage, mainly concentrated in the old Portanuova, where stands the majestic Cathedral of San Cetteo.
illustrious son of the Adriatic city is Gabriele D'Annunzio, Pescara to whose memory he dedicated the Museum "House of Gabriele D'Annunzio."
the airfield, called "Pasquale Liberi" by the will of the Captain D'Annunzio in memory of the brave aviator, was born on a small area of \u200b\u200babout 10 acres during the war as a base for offensive operations and defensive national aviation in the Middle Adriatic. E 'to remember that during the same period of the war, at the mouth of the river Pescara authorizing the construction of a seaplane base and hangar for seaplanes.
Meanwhile, at the military airport, encouraging the emergence of a culture aircraft on 1 October 1930 was assigned to the post of Captain Raphael Breda is the section of the Aero Club of Pescara Italy. Just to Captain Breda organizer various editions of the trophy D'Annunzio and air shows, is currently titled the Aero Club of Pescara. Since the mid-'40s also born on the plane.
Meanwhile, in 1935 officially begins the task of RUNE (Royal Air National Union), where you can obtain the pilot's license of a degree. On 1 October 1936 will start on 1 Course officer, followed in 1937 during the 2nd and 3rd.
the summer of 1943, Pescara was repeatedly bombed, to remember the total unpreparedness of the City and the big surprise with which Pescaresi suffering the war events. After the tragic events of 8 September 1943, while the Germans occupied the Airport (September 13). On September 9, 1943, the airport of Pescara is home to the Royal Family and the heads of the Armed Forces in the building that held the Cadets "Privy Council" before proceeding to the South Germans occupied the airport on September 13 and reduce it into a pile of rottami.Dopo War, after rehabilitation of the entire airport area operating activities resumed in the spring of 1946. Since the 50s, employed by the military airport of Pescara begins to operate a Center of Air Defense Radar National / NATO, which guarantees, among other radar, the safety of Italian skies. And then there are the overcrowded air shows ... ..
Starting from the "50 on the airport of Pescara, which had hosted before the war the Air Tour of Italy and Gatherings of Littorio at the initiative of the Aero Club of Pescara will play the famous speed races and the international airshow involving not just the aerobatic team, as well as patrols and military and civil aircraft from other countries! Emotions ran high, and the involvement of the total population. In September 1998, in the general restructuring of the Armed Forces, with the divestiture of 33 Radar Squadron, is missing the presence of the Air Force in Pescara.
Despite the construction of buildings and supermarkets that have "choked" the airport area, the Airport of Abruzzo is a reality and an asset for our region. The airport has had a great development in recent years allowing connection to the most important Italian and European cities, London, Paris, Brussels, Frankfurt, Milan, Rome, etc.. which must be added seasonal flights in the summer (Toronto, Tunis, etc.) extremely important to the economy and tourism in the region. Today
Abruzzo can count on an airport with facilities, equipment and services worthy of the best airports in Europe and provides a high standard operating in line with the safety standards prescribed by international standards.
G. D'Annunzio Ing. D'Ascanio were major players in a different way, in aeronautics, D'Annunzio immediately grasps the importance of the new medium and participates enthusiastically sincere and patriotic to the events of the Great War and his name is linked with dignity Aviation Italian of those years. D'Ascanio
dedicated his life to the Flight, and his studies, experiments, innovative and ingenious solutions make a significant contribution to the development of pioneering quell'Aviazione. The most important achievement is the helicopter of AT 3 world records the first functional helicopter appeared in the world! And even when he is interested in means "land" as the sale is off his great preparation that allows aviation technical solutions and exceptional aerodynamics. In 1926, designs, builds and tests the first samples of AT 1 and 2 helicopter just in Pescara, in the factories along the Tiburtina Camplone.
Images of the Riviera of Pescara today .. one wonders ...... but you have done?
This is a small gallery of photographs taken during the winter 2001 and spring 2002. We tried landscapes, we tried to enjoy the sea, but we only found a desolate no man's land that should be all of us Pescara. During the winter, but also during the summer season, our Riviera turns into a real private storage protected by railings, gates and wire fences. Currently (2005) the Mayor Alfonso D'kicked off, almost completed the renovation of a good stretch of the Riviera. But there are still outstanding in netting fences, etc.., Making the walk very bad. The new plan foresees the opening of beach access points between the fences of only 5 meters from one plant to another.
We hope instead that the Mayor is able to give us the view of the sea, after having replaced the sidewalks and flower beds.
And so we come to the end of the port Pescara.The administrative assistance, the mayor of Alfonso (Margherita), the Hon. Sighs (AN), almost all other City Council Pescara have decreed that the port, after much fanfare, has to be redone. Why:
1) the polluted waters of the river go on the beaches north and as more than before, despite the silence or near the local press.
2) vessels can not be covered with rough sea, as they have since the birth of the old port, and therefore can not go out fishing as soon as the time minaccia.O risk their lives if they are caught by bad weather.
3) oil tankers calling at that port can not enter the sea under 4 (not much then!) In the case and are forced to stay at anchor outside the harbor, even a whole week.
4) other ships (the German, in the chronicles, or larger) do not think just because of the dry docks and the east too small.
5), the basin is filled dell'avanporto to dry: it will take billions just for dredging (the same hydrofoil in recent times of the season, while managing to land, he raised a whirlwind of mud and maneuvering with difficulty).
Now in the face of this disaster waiting to happen, we have well-known and technical, in time, ie since the year 2000, why not proceed with the construction arm of Levant and indeed tried to put away to the problems already caused by the breakwater, although there are availability of money, the Ministry of Infrastructure (true Mayor D'Alfonso?) where are all those who have insisted so much because everything proceeded as if no warning had been launched? And the Court of Auditors, which has been made aware of everything by ourselves, what does the face of this destruction of public money?
Now everyone wants a new port as soon as it was already built one! -----------------
After a lot of trouble of any kind of pseudo-technical, contrary to what we recommended to the Mayor D'Alfonso, came out under the supervision Councillor Di Biase (PRC Com), the Ministry of APAT Environment Division of the Ministry, the new project to replace the one already new but inefficient.-----------------
leave to those who have responsibility for administrative, civil and criminal findings. We conclude with this Our comment:
"citizens of Pescara really have in the institutions of the patron saints!
In the face of repeated failures impressive, as well as the collective palate of billions thrown in the garbage, local politicians have come out as" virgins "with a new project port of great!
must first bring out that this project will impact heavily sull'assetto design coastal natural, since moving in a north-west, the last stretch of the river.
We are increasingly convinced they are irresponsible.
Proposals of this magnitude can not be supported by test pattern!
Nobody can say today what this shift may result in hydrodynamic equilibrium of the entire Adriatic coast.
But then who pays for the immense work? What is in practice:
a) bed of the river wrapped with new works of defense
b) by absorption of the old port works breakwater
c) new breakwater "split"
Certainly much more than 60 billion (200, note) even if you think the connecting infrastructure.
believe that everything is a ploy to shift the debate from the failures of the past that may worry some known now in serious political "
October 2005 ---
read the time on Saturday, October 1 that the City Council (proposal of the usual recidivists advisers Del Vecchio, Mancini, Padova) proposed and done everything the City Council to accept the purchase of a dredger for the port of Pescara, as it is in the grip of those floating dry that there longer even the seagulls. As mentioned in our letter of 7 June, at the opening of the eastern arm, we can repeat that "We told you so"!
administration's efforts on clearing the port to something that is bigger than a nutshell are unthinkable, given that the facilities of the port are hopelessly lost and useless, and it keeps asking citizens to put their hands in pocket salvage.
We said already, in ns. letter of March 2000, former Mayor Charles Peace staunch defender of this project (others have found in the street), which was supposed to sign a blank check to citizenship for the maintenance of these port facilities. Unnecessarily.
And now ...? Vale
not forgotten the old and said: "Water is scarce and the duck does not float."
However ... The German ship back from Greece, with a stop at the port of Pescara heralded who could not even enter the sea very calm, because of shoals in the harbor and the small sizes of the landing dock.
The commissioner and the commissioner Di Pietrantonio Luciani have argued, however, the arrival ship in Pescara!
whose passengers that were supposed to go shopping in downtown Pescara (if only to show him how to make the sidewalks), they went their own way, with their coach, the party's local Bucchianico, (whose local saint is the patron saint of travelers-known maritime passengers!).
July 2005 Today is Friday, July 8 died on ns. esteemed and beloved engineer Vittorio Marconi, who also starred with other Committee of the port of Pescara.
We like to recall that, among other public office or not, was the designer of the Port of Marina di Pescara and a solution to the port of Pescara, also approved by the municipal council in the early '70s, which would solve most of the current problems. But unfortunately that was not realized.
We like to remember his speech at ns. first meeting of the countless meetings complaint and the facts of fans and pleasant thoughts he had with him, and the many documents that he sent "a legacy" as he liked to say, without photos, floor plans, projects and complete work on the preservation of the shoreline .
will always remain for us an example of integrity and professionalism.
June 2005 On June 5, was opened on the eastern arm between many sounds of fanfare and a lot of admissions from authorities on the management problems of the port, both in the shallow basin and excessive dredging, both in terms of pollution from port facilities revert to the beaches, both for entry to the south a threat to navigation.
All that we have been saying since March 2000.
Since we had not done more controversy for a year now, we felt stung by certain statements and we replied:
Committee
Port of Pescara Pescara
to the media, Tuesday, June 7, 2005 Opening
arm East Port of Pescara
It 's done! Among joyous celebrations, with great resonance of the press, the new pier the east - though not yet complete - was inaugurated.
But from interviews given by the "Center", a true reflection of city life, we capture, by leading politicians and technicians, some justified concerns:
"protect the port entrance channel could be realized, better, with different criteria;
"there is the problem of siltation bottom front of the new docks;
" certain shipping links will not take place because of the insufficiency of the grounds and docks. "
would add that the possibility also raises some doubts port access, especially in a rough sea, considering also the order of the Harbour in January 2004! (I know something about the Masters of local fishing boats!)
Nor, unfortunately, the situation improves for the enthusiasm shown by some political figures of the second floor, which is credited with having made possible the realization of the east pier, despite all the opposition!
Oppositions, have not yet fully understood, not to a port for Pescara, but at this port, will not make either the city or region to the benefits that a well-designed port could be made. No more dreary
sentence to be pronounced "we had told us "useless for those who pronounce sentence, because it can not change the state of things, and annoying to the listener, because it sounds like sterile reproach!
And yet, sometimes you must say, because events like this do not happen again!
On this the lords of the policy should ponder: How did it happen that in an advanced society, a rich and illustrious singing professionally with the other, control systems of public projects rather redundant work has been performed of this magnitude based on a design wrong?
And as ever, became clear the error (since March 2000) after construction of the breakwater, it was not possible to use the funds still available to create a work of improvement on the situation that was determined?
Probably, if the review of the project had actually been assigned to technical experts, they could have committed the funds necessary for the construction of the east dock, for the realization of a different structure which eliminates the pollution of the beach, which minimize the silting , allowing easy access to the port, even in case of rough waters, and, finally, also guaranteed the port for ferries from Greece and Montenegro!
But this system was not able to recognize their error and to remedy them: this is the consideration that, although daunting at the moment, should make us think that this incident does not happen again! Neither
now seems useful to try out the responsibilities, so it is dispersed and diluted over time and across different branches of the administration of public affairs, not to be more easily attributable to, nor can be considered allocation of responsibility for the pride of those who glory d ' have contributed to this port, that is, with evidence, confessions of mythomania! There
ventilated comfort even the possibility of improving the work with partial cuts of the breakwater, a hypothesis that seems impossible, because of its cost and its complexity, and which also appears insufficiently studied, since no one has thought, it seems, the real possibility that the hypothesized gaps could get the very systems that make it difficult to wave ' entrance to the harbor!
And, anyway, even if it were possible to improve the hygienic condition of the beach, would not diminish the silting of the port will improve its ability to access the port!
There 's been like that!
the rehabilitation of the coast of Pescara and the realization of a true haven in Pescara will probably provide the next generation; because this has not been able to do it! With our
. Best regards.
March-April 2005 -
"Did you know?" I did not realize how many ... I have not even dreamed of the harbor! Hello "mr
" So we wrote an old friend, a collector of images of projects of the Port Pescara!
We suggest, therefore, for the recreation of the spirit and joy of the eyes of some projects developed over the years are not all that many other amateur and not have imagined the Port of Pescara! Remember the navigation on the river with boats moved by jet engines?
Noting, however, the widespread interest generated from the explanations and the bursting need to apply many of its aesthetic construction of the port (but why no one has applied to the train station or airport, or something else?), we have not deemed it right that the privilege of being allowed to express their creativity only a few dozen people!
Whoever, therefore, feels himself the sacred fire burning in the design of the port will send us his plan: we'll publish it!
Among those who will be received at the end, announces a contest to elect the most preposterous idea and sock, if possible, but we doubt, find some more imaginative than those already proposed. The winner will have in
award a three-cornered hat, colorful and with bells on top: a Jolly! "

Just to round off the season here under Article Il Messaggero on Friday 10 September, saying: Via Balilla, the sea is not blue
"condemnation for the stretch of sea between foosball and off the North Pier. The latest tests carried out by art, the regional agency for environmental protection (www.micso.it/artape/) leave no hope.
the area will be subject to a ban on bathing for all of 2005. They say the latest analysis of the season.
Values bacterial pollution are the highest ever recorded in the last ten years, numbers that do give up all hope.
Blame the breakwater of course, but probably some flaw in the sewer system in the area. "
(Bottom) Photo-infrared heat from the plane, which is highlighted in blue, light blue, green, yellow, water the river at various temperatures: the yellow border of the river, practically, is up to the Round Paolucci, where the beach is wider, in the normal summer, after having banged against the breakwater. The photo was taken in September 2001. (The part in red represents the salty water of the sea).
the President of the Province De Dominicis say that obviously not enough to repair any lifting pump, but it must designate a region of the basin (under the law Galli 89) which performs a complete clean-up work throughout the course of Pescara, and also Tirino and Aterno.
And even when the river was cleaned up and carry only clean water (it will take decades) would always be drinking water and silt, which deviated from the breakwater would always change the marine ecosystem near the coast, where you play most of the fish . So, in addition to restoring the river, you must change the structure of the port to prevent the breakwater remains a barrier to the silt of the river itself.
Not to mention in this section of dried, caused by the same dam, impeding the navigation in the dock, forcing the administration to expensive dredging operations.
August 2004 As usual, in full season breaks the problem of pollution of bathing water. The ARTA
communicate the new analysis of the August 10, those who deny, limit, of Green Schooner and confirm those of previous same ARTA.
Il Messaggero 19/8/2004
Luciano Troiano wrote: "Other than clear, fresh and sweet that acque.Altro Blue Flag in 2005. The data given in Article speaks for itself. Four points of severe distress: the area in front Balilla off the north pier, 100 meters south of the marina, and ditch Pretara.
There are many hypotheses but in the dock the number one culprit continues to be the breakwater (which diverts the sewage of the river to the beach). "
How are we repeating since March 2000!
July 2004 July 23 2004The month could close with some considerations:
in January (see below) there was a visit of the Mayor D'Alfonso, with some members of the City Council and with us at the Ministry of Infrastructure. Following the meeting, the Ministry has authorized the City to appoint trustworthy technicians to improve the structure of the port and put in security after the incidents of the east entrance to vessels, in the last Christmas and in the previous year.
At first the mayor asked us the names of our technicians. confidence and their curricula in order to proceed to the award of the tasks to improve the structure of the port. But the Hon. Sighs was immediately hoisted, and the Mayor is locked (also smothered by the embrace of the Communist PRC).
Meanwhile there were the provincial elections, after which the mayor, collected the win, he forgot everything.
So now the situation is that the port will remain as is and fishermen, in the event of heavy seas, that is, in winter, frequently, the only thing they can do is to manage the port of Ortona, with all the catch.
And leave the rest: pollution of beaches, dried in outer harbor, etc ... So much for the Mayor and Mrs. Sighs (PRC and Com).
--------------------------- July 10, 2004: finally! After 29 days of waiting, the hydrofoil can start with the load from Pescara!
9/Luglio/04: RINA certification has not arrived and the hydrofoil was unable to open the line with Croatia. It expects another certificate from Panama, under whose flag it flies. When's the first trip?
Of course we can not say that the transport from Pescara are a model of efficiency, although it is a simple hydrofoil! Moreover, it remains valid to the order of the CP of 1/20/2004, which prohibits entered port in rough seas force 5 / 6.
July 4, 2004: arrived in port that the hydrofoil will link with Croatia. That 's what you see below:
E' of 1996 to 3012 tons., 74 meters long, 36 meters wide
When in port, moored, but takes up almost the entire width of the "channel", ie the channel entrance and exit from port-channel, which is 47 meters wide. There remain only 10/12 meters for the passage of a vessel at a time only! It will take a traffic light! This
under the motorboat that is presented at the conference proposal of October 12, 2001, as an example of the hull that could be connected with Croatia Pescara.
E 'dei Cantieri Rodriguez, and runs between Valencia and Palma de Mallorca
two hulls are virtually the same size, it only changes the appearance. Between October 2001, the date of our. conference and today, it's been three years in which it was built so the disputed eastern arm of the new port. As dry as we had warned the nell'avamporto already caused by the breakwater, have since increased dramatically, thanks in part to the east arm, to allow the passage months a year they have been dredged 130,000 cubic meters of mud at the entrance to the west . At a cost of £ 180,000 of old, are 2 billion 340 million.
If we consider that in recent years these have been repeated dredging each year (and repeat) is to consider that with the cost of dredging 3 / 4 years we could build every time a new port, suitable for motor vessels of much greater capacity and tonnage. In the picture is missing the new offshore facilities in the port of Pescara. At the bottom of the harbor is the old port-canale.L 'input wanted Mr West was practically: Sighs, although well known that no vessel in rough sea weather conditions you will venture.
Project Civil Engineer HH: MM. Ancona: above the breakwater, under, sideways, his arm resting on the east pier of the marina. To the left of the marina is the old canal port.
It should also be considered, as seen from the aerial photo above, which the river flows virtually a closed basin copletamente from the breakwater to the north and the east arm, the one hooked to the south. Now all the material that carries the river, tree trunks (as seen in photo) and any other material floating and not, first went out to sea, and now goes to stay mainly in the eastern basin, hampering navigation and operations of vessels. This requires considerable work by cleaning .-----------------------
9/luglio/04: the slime off the coast is always less. There remains some small strip.
July 4, 2004: the mucilage seems to disappear slowly. In front of the coast of Pescara the phenomenon seems ridursi a qualche striscia.Però quella che prima era al largo, adesso è arrivata a riva.
Giugno 2004----
25 Giugno 2004: il mare antistante la costa pescarese e chietina è addobbato da banchi di mucillagine.
Fenomeno strano, in quanto non preceduto da un periodo di lunga bonaccia. Finora inspiegabile.
Perciò è inutile che l'assessore all'ambiente Rudy D'amico, e il grande Riccardo Padovano si sbraccino tanto per dare la colpa della mucillagine al dragaggio. Tutt'alpiù bisogna andare a guardare gli scarichi dei fiumi durante le ultime piogge che hanno dilavato, e portato al mare, i terreni concimati con sostanze "nutrienti".
Non può essere addossata la colpa al dragaggio dell'avamporto o del Pescara River, which has nothing to do with this phenomenon, how else does one explain the presence of mucilage also on the coast of the Marches?
It 's true that we have asked the Hon. Sighs of not spending the money for the dredging, data from the Ministry, all in dredging dell'avamporto west. Unnecessarily. . He could very well two months ago to allow the excavation of 30,000 cubic meters. vessels in the channel, urgent, and dig out the remaining 100,000 nell'avamporto the west (also useless because the sea will cover everything within a month). It would have been less un'alibi mucillagine.Il Ministry for the phenomenon was in agreement with our. proposal. But ns. proposals were unnecessary for the Hon. Sighs.
Finally, the sea is polluted for years, since there is a breakwater that diverts water from the river on the beach. Maybe, sometimes, is polluted slightly below the legal limits, but still polluted, as say the Environment Committee Chair Paola Marchegiani. (See photo below and analysis ARTA March 2004).
Wednesday, December 21, 2004. PS: we receive the Councillor Rudy D'Amico and gladly publish:
"I never said that dredging is the cause of mucilage this summer.
You have surely also affected, but do not make errors of judgments like hastily made some journalist .
agree with the analysis that you feel supported but not exhaustive.
It courtesy calls to change this interpretation given to me as the same has allowed me (and not only in this case) to act as advocates.
Congratulations good job, "Rudy D'Amico

But the trimaran, due to problems with the RINA certification, it will not start on June 24, will begin his travels on 8 Luglio.Gli tour operators (FIAVET) complain and expect precision in wiring.

15/giugno 2004: As it turned it punctually Analysis of June are bad. See article below:
May 2004 ------------------------------------------- ---------- Some
ns. considerations:
Mayor D'alfonso, two close to call great port experts to fix as much as possible the structure of the port, what are the games of politics, but must deal with the Hon. Sighs, Deputy Minister for Infrastructure, which, as we reported earlier, is proud of the port current (sic)
Nothing the matter is that the port to a minimum and the beaches are polluted by the waters of the river, diverted from the breakwater .
You are now curious to imagine what it will cost the dredging dell'avamporto for the future, given that, caught between the dam and the eastern arm, is close to becoming un'acquitrino rather than a dock.
Meanwhile, the ANPA and the great prof. De Girolamo have been lost ... " harbor mists.
The price of £ 15,000 per cubic meter. (sorry, to £ 18,000 mc.) suggests a more exorbitant figures for the pockets of citizens. We try to multiply it by 1.5 million cubic meters., how many are piled nell'avamporto already and need to be dredged to restore the depth measures suited to the handling of ships or ferries. SINCE repeat every four or five years comes out almost a sum equal to the cost of the port, every time. In current month, the Order of Engineers of the Province has released a study of the port which speaks volumes about the quality of work performed on the works at sea.
---------- March 2004 published the letter sent to the authorities some Masters of the vessel, after news that the work of the port will continue as before, so no interruptions in the work of the eastern arm and the rest with no corrections. Dear

Pescara, Friday, March 26, 2004
Subject: Port of Pescara
In January last year, following the adventures and perils which we have suffered on Christmas Eve to return to port , we have heard from Dr.. Spina and other conmiissari Commission Infrastructure on the same events, and we had specifically asked to stop the construction arm of the east. Behind assurance that this would be done by blocking any clamorous protest (such as employment axis area). The Harbour
thought to hedge, issuing an order prohibiting the fall with very rough sea, but to us who we are at sea in all weathers, not just because we know that a storm can take a sudden, despite the bulletins, weather, and for this we need a safe harbor entrance.
And since then, we have already lost several days: work: because we are not out fishing for fear of not surf very rough seas, but for the fear of returning to port.
Instead we see all those days: that the construction boom going on east of it and the dangers these remain unaltered.
We knew of the designation of two great designers to fix the disasters of the port of Pescara: 1
difficulties' mouth entrance from the east sea is rough;
2. uselessness of the entry of the west, even if dredged, with the money of the citizens, thanks to 'on.Sospiri.
3. dried nell'avamporto of this size that will not be enough money to dig five municipal budgets;
4. permanent pollution of the coast north, ns. costs, even for 2004 (Mayor causes to be placed signs prohibiting bathing, but we will not pretend that we make the bathroom!)
5. one berth for the catamaran summer for Croatia, such as in the old port (which c was needed to build the new port ... if the berth was one?)
6. arm of Levant well as make the dangerous entrance nell'avamporto create even more dry than it already creates the dam.
II active all through the good offices of Mr. Sighs, told us that he claimed, when voting for the Municipal Budget, as his arm on the construction of the east and the Dredging dell'avamporto west.
Now we know who is responsible for this, by his own admission!
7. enormous costs for future maintenance of the port, for which we must dredge, dredge dredge the sand .... or rather the people's pockets. We were ready to thank everyone for their commitment to improving the ns. situation, but unfortunately the efforts of the Mayor and Mrs. Sighs proved to be more harmful than we could imagine.
take note and we consider what to do.
If we did not happen then, when we were summoned by the committee, we repeat it now: we are ready to implement any form of protest which would put an end to work on the arm of Levant
Regards.

month does not bring good: 11 / 03 THE MESSENGER gives details of tests carried out in this last period, forcing the data region to extend the prohibitions to sea from the port via Balilla in the north. Remain involved in the ban seven bathing throughout the summer and until the end of the year.
------------------------------------------------- --------
Neither side of the cargo handling things go well. 2003 data are also negative over the previous year. Among other problems, the lack of specialization among the various ports and then the fragmentation has not helped anyone. This was already Proposal Conference was highlighted in the February 2001 January 2004
-------------------------------------- -------------
As a result of incidents in late December to vessels attempting to enter port and following the demonstrations of the commanders, the Mayor Luciano D'Alfonso decides to consult the ministry and went to Rome with a delegation of advisors and counselors.
Finally, after four years of NS. civil war, after the construction of a port obviously wrong, having spent billions with poor results, the question arises the need for action on the works poorly designed and to entrust the task of renowned engineers to intervene to offer protection.
The statement provided below formalizes the action:
-----
On January 20, the Port Authority issues an order which orders the commanders of vessels not to enter the port with very rough and stormy sea!
December 2003 -
In the days before Christmas there was a gale force 7 / 8 that has surprised many vessels at sea. (See Minutes of the City Commission Infrastructure-Europe) Given the impossibility to return to the port of Pescara, 3 or 4 vessels are due to go to Ortona. Those who have tried to enter from the entrance of the east, however, that indeed is the only avail, have experienced moments of great fear and above all of great danger. Trying to thread The bit had to cross the sea to the north and suffer the blows of that very big sea drove them almost on the rocks of the eastern arm, sottovento.Il God has willed that everything is finished, but the commanders of those vessels are still shaking over the danger and damage to someone subiti.Tutto this had been provided by us nell'esposto the judiciary in March 2000, when the structure of the port was not totally compromised.
Now, who came out of the concerns we had then and that under the arm to the east is already almost all built, it is more difficult to find a solution. But nothing is impossible! "And then we wonder: Is there an authority worthy of the name that you strive to ensure that the port is modified so that vessels can safely enter and as ships, or should we wait until we escape a misfortune?
November 2003 - News
"sull'andazzo in the port, caused dall'assetto the same as resulted from the project of Civil Engineering & C., succeed:
at the end of October, the tanker firm Propertius, which usually makes a stop in the port of Pescara, once again, like many others, failed to enter the port with the north sea force 4 / 5, because forced to navigate by the position of the dam, and then run the danger.
This is the famous entrance to the south of the new port that is wrong and we have repeatedly denounced.
reflect: if instead of an oil tanker, which could then get at anchor in the harbor for two days, waiting for the calm sea, it had been a passenger ship, which must comply with the timetable, where would she go? Ancona?
So if a port is not safe in rough seas, which port it?
October 2003 ---
From The Time 26 / 9: DREDGING - meeting of various political (Desiati, De Dominicis, Roselli, Mancini ,...) at the Harbour.
Captain Melon has requested and obtained from various government, municipal, provincial and regional level, an adequate appropriation for dredging every year at least 80,000, eighty cubic meters from the dock. At least 80,000. That is, it means that the need to remove mud and sand from the basin was also higher. fact, if we think the breakwater dell'avamporto created in the basin since 1997, in six years, more than one million cubic meters of dry, cubic meters that are piled up each year, many more than 80,000-but also if they were as many as required by the dredging of the Harbour Master, it takes always a lot of money to do this. At a cost of £ 18,000 per cubic meter are 1.44 billion pounds (one billion 440 million) a year. That is 9 billion over six years.
From that it follows that it makes sense as we stated and proved by the photos aerophotogrammetric, ie that the project is wrong and the new port would be better to spend taxpayers' money to improve the structure of the structures once and for all rather than spend it needlessly every year for the dredging of shoals, caused by the breakwater.
----- July 2003 from the time of the July 29, 2003, the sea becomes dirty. After
alarms for the month of May and the June break back nightmares of the prohibitions bathing right in the middle of the season. Prohibitions that are already there anyway, and permanent, in the stretch north to the pier via Balilla (only the old and the new mayor they forgot to put the signs at night or someone makes them disappear. The order was the Ministry of 'Environment).
In fact there is a strong increase in pollution in this stretch, according to the latest withdrawals made by Article 22/7.Sono the seven bathing establishments involved. But the situation is even more worrying in the stretch before Vallelunga Ditch, south of Pescara river. Here are the bathing establishments involved 5: The analysis detected more than 300 fecal coliforms per 100 udm, permitted by law, and 250 out of 100 faecal streptococci udm
The Chambers. Dionisio, director of ART, states that he gave orders to carry out further analysis: at least 4 of the new analysis, 5 total, will be negative, otherwise will trigger bans on bathing.
