The complaint at stake concerned the environmental and social impact of a project for the construction of a 750MWe natural gas-fired combined-cycle power generation plant in Nuweiba, Egypt, 200 km north of Sharm-el-Sheik on the west cost of South Sinai, Aqaba Golf. The project promoter was the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company (EEHC). Since 19 May 2009, the Complaints Mechanism received 24 different complaints challenging the Environmental and Social aspects of the Project, coming from managers/owners of hotels, scuba diving centres, beach side camp owners, citizens of Nuweiba, local NGO, tourist operators, resident EU citizens and from local communities including the 2 major Bedouin tribes of the area. An on-line petition to the Egyptian government to stop the Project raised more than 2.300 signatures. Allegations: Lack of proper public consultation, no proper consideration given to local economy, tourist resources and local communities, no proper consideration given to preservation of local biodiversity and marine habitats.
