The “New Gimhae Airport” verification committee under the Prime Minister’s Office will announce the results of the feasibility verification of New Gimhae Airport at 2 pm on the 17th at the government office in Seoul. The verification committee took a step to raise the technical problem that the expansion of the new Gimhae airport was difficult due to security concerns. In this case, there is a high possibility that the project for the new airport in the Southeast region will be completely revised. Additionally, the political controversy is expected to escalate with the Busan mayor’s election next year.

New airport business with greater possibility of full review

Since then, it is observed that the weight of the new airport project on Busan’s Gadeok Island, which is being promoted by the passport, will be added. In addition, the Democratic Party increased an additional 2 billion won in the budget for the verification service of the new Gadeok Island airport before the results of the verification committee came out. Criticism has emerged over whether he intends to revoke the national Gimhae New Airport project promoted by the previous government before the by-elections for the mayor of Busan next year.

On the 16th, an official from the Prime Minister’s Office said: “The results of the verification will be announced around the 17th. Until the announcement of the verification committee, the government cannot predict.”

However, there is talk of a complete review of the new airport business in the southeast region. The verification committee was launched on December 6 of last year. When the verification results of Busan, Ulsan and Gyeongnam were significantly different from the basic plan of the new Gimhae airport by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, a verification committee was established in the Prime Minister’s Office.

I have to cut the mountains around …

The verification committee verified 14 problems in the four areas of safety, noise, environment, facilities, operation and demand for almost a year. Until the last minute, security issues are said to have been controversial. To expand the new Gimhae airport, the surrounding mountains must be cut off. Consequently, the Verification Committee requested a related interpretation from the Office of Legal Affairs. Article 34.2 of the Airport Facilities Act is the relevant provision.

Since then, the Ministry of Legislative, Legislative and Legislative Affairs has been inclined to give an authoritative interpretation that says that “we must consult with the local government (Busan City) on the theft of obstacles. This is because the city of Busan, which has opposed the new Gimhae airport, is very likely to reject the administrative support necessary to remove the obstacles. It is difficult to expand according to the basic plan of the Ministry of Lands, Infrastructure and Transport.

Gadeokdo passport to the new airport

As such, in the passport, there is an atmosphere in which the weight is placed on the side of the new airport. For the Democratic Party, which decided to run for the Busan mayoral by-election in April next year, it is the best card for Germany. A passport official said: “(I know the announcement will be made in the same direction as the original address). (New Gimhae Airport) is not positive.”

However, in June 2016, New Gadeokdo Airport ranked third in the ‘Youngnam Area New Airport Candidate Assessment Results’. At that time, the assessment was carried out by Paris Airport Authority Engineering (ADPi) in France. It is an organization of international prestige in the field of airports.

Members of the Headquarters of the Citizen Movement for the Promotion of the New Airport are calling for a slogan to immediately verify the New Gimhae Airport at a press conference to announce the results of the verification of the New Gimhae Airport in the general propaganda held in the Busan City Council meeting room in January.

Gimhae Airport overwhelmingly ranked first

As a result of the evaluation, the expansion of the Gimhae airport ranked first. This was followed by Miryang, Gyeongsangnam-do and Gadeokdo. Previously, Miryang and Gadeokdo were eliminated because the cost benefit (B / C analysis) did not fall short of 1, which has the commercial viability, even in the government’s selection of the location of the new Yeongnam area airport in 2011. It means that there is economic viability when it is 1.

ADPi noted that in the case of Gadeokdo Island, the construction itself is difficult, such as a high construction cost due to the recovery of the sea, and that accessibility is lower because it is skewed towards the extreme south of the country. Milyang also received low scores for security and accessibility.

At the time, Chief Investigator Jang Marie Chevalier explained: “As a result of evaluating strategic aspects such as airport operation, access and economic viability, socioeconomic impact, environment, cost and risk, the expansion of the airport de Gimhae was identified as the optimal alternative. ” The verification procedure was carried out in the full home state of ADPi.

It seems difficult to pressure the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport

Prime Minister Jeong Sye-gyun said he met with Gyeongnam Governor Kim Gyeong-soo on the 11th to discuss the new airport on Gadeok Island. In fact, this is one of the reasons for the observation that the new Gimhae airport will not go through the process of getting rid of it. If the verification committee cancels it, the Ministry of Lands, Infrastructure and Transport is expected to place a considerable burden to push forward the basic plan or find a third site.

An official from the Prime Minister’s Office said: “We have not been able to confirm if we were talking about the new airport.”
