联合王国对疏浚沉积物稳定剂征收新的垃圾填埋税,威胁到港口项目、就业机会和绿色目标。 UK's new landfill tax on dredged sediment stabilisers threatens port projects, jobs, and green goals.

在预算中悄悄宣布的英国垃圾填埋税的拟议变化将终止处置受污染疏浚沉积物所用稳定剂的豁免,引起港口和水道领导人的关切。 A proposed UK landfill tax change, quietly announced in the Budget, would end an exemption for stabilisers used in disposing of contaminated dredged sediment, raising concerns among port and waterway leaders. 英国港务协会警告这一举动可能会增加数以千万计的基础设施成本,威胁项目的可行性,推迟投资,并冒数以万计的就业机会的风险——特别是在东北部。 The British Ports Association warns the move could add tens of millions to infrastructure costs, threatening project viability, delaying investments, and risking tens of thousands of jobs—especially in the North-east. 产业团体说,变革破坏了政府增长和净零目标,财政部的收入收益微乎其微。 Industry groups say the change undermines government growth and net zero goals, with minimal revenue gain for the Treasury. 他们敦促财务处推翻这一决定。 They are urging the Treasury to reverse the decision.
