They did not inform the county either
Representatives of the Banská Bystrica Self -Governing Region (BBSK) also learned about the meeting regarding the state megaproject on the hills from a video of young farmers published on Instagram. This is despite the fact that its implementation is conditioned by the change of the zoning plan of municipalities and the county.

A protest was scheduled
The mayor of the fabrics Mario Kubiš said that the initial intention was to inform in more detail about the planned construction, especially those who have real estate in the roadblock.
« I think it was not the intention not to invite anyone, » said the mayor, saying that the attitude of the village towards the construction of the dam has not changed yet. This means that the local deputies disagree with her.
“We attended the first meeting with the mayors on March 28, where we were asked to inform people who are most related to the construction, ie they are in the landing area.

People are afraid of a source of drinking water
This time, however, people were not so much the technical parameters of the work. In particular, they showed concerns about the important source of drinking water, which is the dam in Malinec for the districts of Lučenec, Poltár and Veľký Krtíš. They claim that drinking water can become technical.
« The presentation itself will point out projects that are already implemented within the world. At present, it is a trend not to build single -purpose water management facilities, but multifunctional. We signed cooperation with the Central Slovak Water Company last week. Molda explained.
Information on the concerns of watermen, according to which the construction of the pumped hydrotic power plant-Málinec would have a threat to access to drinking water for approximately 63,000 inhabitants of central Slovakia, was marked as being taken out of the context. He stressed that the water purpose of the dam would be maintained and technologies will be used to prevent any operating fluids from leaking into raw water. He considers the claims of drinking water pollution as misleading and unsubstantiated.
However, many domestic people have the opposite view, claiming that they discussed several experts who did not rule out the threat. At the meeting in the fabrics, she also pointed to her associate professor from the Technical University in Zvolen Katarína Střelcová.
« For forty years I have been trying students and none of them would allow you to come to the examination as unprepared as the Water Management Lords came, » said forestry hydrology expert, bioclimatology, forest ecology and ecology and forest and forest ecology. climate change. At the same time, she is also the owner of the cottage in the roadblocks in Čechánky. He claims that a well -founded and convincing answer to the question about protecting the drinking water source is still missing.
Disappointment
Several of the meeting left disappointed, saying that nothing new had learned. « Thank you, go home. Where is Taraba? He was supposed to be here, » he said several times in the hall of the cultural house. « However, he said that if we do not want the dam here, it would not be built, » one of the discussers loudly recalled.
« I am from Detvian smelter and I know that construction will also affect our village. There is a risk of losing ground water and I think it will also affect the microclimate. Engineer and conservationist Branislav Kršiak.
Renáta Endődyová, a lawyer from Lučenec, who also has a property in the area concerned, stressed that there is no interest in politicizing this topic.
« We are fighting for ourselves and our rights that are trampled. You should have brought the facts because we didn’t hear any of you. You were the first to be rude to us because you didn’t tell us anything and hit us in a rough, and drastic way. It is unacceptable in the rule of law and the democratic establishment.
Investment for nearly two billion euros
The head of the environment Tomáš Taraba on Friday, April 7, after meeting with the mayors of fabrics, Detvian Huta, Cinobane and Malinec, stressed that the project of the Malinec pumped water power plant is only in the feasibility study phase.
« At the same time, I deny all the hoaxes and hysteria that it will be funded by the Chinese and that we are going to flood municipalities and cities. It is in the interest of the state, if it is decided to realize this building, that it also consistently self -government, higher territorial whole and state.
He quantified that the project could bring billions of euros to the state coffers with a return on investment within five to seven years.
He justified the shortening of the time limit for commenting by trying to prevent speculators from earning a project, such as buying land.
