Environmental Tribunal gives Go-Ahead for Styria Line
In his first statement, VERBUND General Director Dipl.-Ing. Hans Haider emphasized: "The first plans for the Styria line were drawn up 25 years ago. The decisions issued today by the environmental mark the formal end of the approval procedures. We shall now immediately commence with the implementation of the project to ensure that security of supply is maintained."
The corresponding motion was made by Erhard Schaschl (64). With a view to continuity within the supervisory body, Schaschl will remain in office as Vice President parallel to the second Deputy Chairman, Maximilian Eiselsberg (60). All votes were accepted unanimously.
Frizberg expressed his gratitude over Schaschl's motion and the demonstration of trust on the part of the Supervisory Board. "The international competitiveness to strengthen VERBUND and the reinforcement of our position on the domestic Austrian market are priority goals," was Frizberg's concluding remark.
The shareholder representatives in the Supervisory Board are commonly appointed until the year 2010.
