Dutch plan to reclaim Zuider Zee dominates Second Chamber debate
Proposals to reclaim 815 square miles of the Zuider Zee and convert 567 square miles to a freshwater lake are slated for approval in the Dutch Parliament. The project, costing about £105 million and taking 33 years, would create an embanked land from Farykatuls to the Amstel Channel, housing up to 250,000 in a new province and easing frequent floods. The fresh-water lake would reduce brackish water by drawing in river water from Nic Heel and other sources.
