Living Kamp (LK) Lebendiger Kamp (LK)

Wild river, wild forests: the central Kamptal is a unique natural paradise. And it should stay that way! The action group “Lebendiger Kamp” wants to preserve the beauty, wildness and biodiversity of the Kamptal. For the creatures in nature and people. However, the planned new construction of the Rosenburg camp power plant would partially destroy this paradise. And deforestation threatens the most valuable natural forests… 15 June 2018 marked the end of the comment period associated with the framework of the environmental impact assessment procedure for the new construction of the Rosenburg Kamp power plant planned by EVN. The citizens’ initiative “Lebendiger Kamp – Nein zum Ausbau des Kraftwerks Rosenburg” (Living Kamp – No to the expansion of the Rosenburg power plant) collected well over 500 signatures in the affected communities in just two weeks. Of these, 420 signatures were received by the representatives of the citizens’ initiative by Friday, 15 June, and – together with detailed additional explanations – were submitted to the Office of the Lower Austrian Provincial Government in due time. The citizens’ initiative has thus clearly exceeded the threshold of 200 signatures and has therefore applied for party status in the EIA procedure. The concerns addressed by the citizens’ initiative are supported by nominated persons such as Erni Mangold and Anne Bennet.
