Action Plan for Sulphur Dioxide
Following the publication of the Stage 4 report which looked in
detail at sulphur dioxide emissions from shipping, Dover District
Council have produced an Action Plan to look at options for
remediation of the sulphur dioxide problem at Dover Eastern
Docks.
During the compilation of the report, Dover District Council
were pleased to receive the co-operation of both the Dover Harbour
Authority and P & O Ferries Ltd. Both remain members of the
Stakeholders Group, which was set up as part of the consultation
process.
Improvement in sulphur levels relies much on impending European
legislation which is currently being debated and the success of
flue gas de-sulphurisation trials which are currently being
undertaken by P&O Ferries Ltd.
