A new gondola lift over Bansko would be built only after the municipality presented a development plan and it passed through public discussion and environmental assessment, Bulgarian Minister of Environment and Water, Neno Dimov, said at a briefing with mayor of Bansko, Georgi Ikonomov.
The two have agreed that the municipality of Bansko should be ready with the plan as soon as possible. The minister added that construction would take place in 2.6 percent of the territory of National Park Pirin, as it was sport infrastructure and not restaurants and hotels.
Minister Dimov also said he was ready to answer the questions of environmentalists who protest against the project and added claims that construction would affect 48 percent of the national park were not true.
