Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what environmental impact assessment his Department plans to undertake for the runway resurfacing project on Ascension Island; and whether that assessment will be open to stakeholder consultation.


This question was answered on 10th January 2017

The Ascension Island Runway Resurfacing Project is a United States Air Force (USAF) led project and will be co-ordinated in consultation with the Ascension Island Government Conservation Department. The design and scope assessment has been contracted-out by the USAF and we are assured that all environmental considerations will be factored into this assessment. The Ministry of Defence has also provided the contractor with additional information for the environmental assessment and will continue to liaise with all stakeholders as the project develops.
