NorthSeafood receives environmental permit.

Posted on Feb 03, 2012

The municipality of Urk has issued an environmental permit to NorthSeafood last Monday. The company had submitted an application for this late September. After meeting the requirements for the permit, it was granted.

At first the municipality had to determine which methods and installations NorthSeafood had to use, but with this permit NorthSeafood is free to choose which methods are being used to meet the environmental requirements. NorthSeafood is the first company in Urk who receives this permit.

The presentation took place at NorthSeafood where Alderman Gerrit Post handed the permit to Lubbert Schenk, CEO of NorthSeafood.

"We are very pleased with this permit, this permit indicates that we have a good relationship with the municipality of Urk, and also we can now determine ourselves how we want to meet the environmental requirements," said Lubbert Schenk.
