I am objecting to S/CBC-A on the grounds of ecological concerns: inadequate water supply, irreparable damage to ecosystems including identified endangered species and increased carbon emissions. It is not a good site for expansion with poor existing infrastructure and facilities. The fields flood regularly and remain underwater for 3-4 months a year. There is a lack of an integrated public transport system and the road network is already overloaded. This continued expansion into the countryside is not justified -the proposed level of growth exceeds that projected and there is a complete democratic deficit in the process and evidence base.
