Pollution below thresholds

BREMERHAVEN. The immissions from various emission sources of air pollutants in the area of the city of Bremerhaven’s overseas port area do not pose any health risks for the surrounding residential areas. This is the pleasing result of a study presented in March, which looked at the values for nitrogen oxide, sulphur dioxide, particulate matter and carbon dioxide for the entirety of CY2019. “The assessment of air pollutant immissions was carried out in comparison with the existing assessment values according to the 39th German Immission Control Legislation (BImSchV) and in relation to local conditions,” stated bremenports in its press release.
