State minister wants to prohibit oil test drillings in Wadden Sea
Tageszeitung (taz)
Schleswig-Holstein鈥檚 state energy minister Robert Habeck wants to prohibit further oil test drillings off the coast of Germany鈥檚 northernmost state, writes Sven-Michael Veit in tageszeitung (taz). Detonations, drillings and other invasions of the national park Wadden Sea were generally forbidden by state national park regulations, said Habeck. Until now, authorisations were given under Germany鈥檚 federal mining law. Since 1987, Deutsche Erdoel AG () has drilled for oil from a sandbank in the North Sea and it is now planning further test drillings, also in the national park. The Wadden Sea is a UNESCO world heritage site.
