A prayer for Owen Meany - Tweede Maasvlakte( 4)

Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam, Maasvlakte 2, Construction workers

[Yes this is a kind off-beat title, but I couldn't resist using the title of a favourite John Irving novel here ;-)]

 

Economic powerhouse Rotterdam needs extra space for the expansion of its harbour activities. After some debate this led to the decision to start the work on Maasvlakte 2 , which's all about creating new land.

 

This one is captured at the border of Maasvlake 1 and 2 - at the cooling water outlet of the coal fired E-on power station.nearby A pipeline is being installed - a whole lotta of sand/water needs to be moved - and the workers were having a close look at the things going on at the outlet.
