22 January 2020After the emergency of last November, acceleration continues to put the high water control system in the lagoon into operation as soon as possible. The commissioners of the Venezia Nuova Consortium communicated at the table meeting today in the Prefecture in Venice that the time schedule of the Mose provides for the possibility of operating the sluice gates starting from next June 30, on the occasion of tides of a certain level, probably 140 cm, even if the precise quota will be established in the next meetings.

The administrators present at the meeting announced this when they left the meeting.

The mayor of Venice Luigi Brugnaro then explained that the precise schedule of the MOSE will be delivered to the administrators at the next meeting of the table, which is expected to be held at the end of February.

"The attitude - added Brugnaro - is very good. MOSE is a great work to face high waters, but that's not enough: we talked about a series of issues, including the sludge protocol, and we reiterated the importance of continuity funding, starting from those of the special law. As for Mose, we managed to change the terms with respect to the initial approach, which provided for the completion of the work first and then experimentation ".
