In the conflict with the authorities about the acute BER fire protection problems of Berlin Airports’ CEO Karsten Mühlenfeld now trying to calm things down. “Mutual accusations do not lead to the goal. We need a constructive debate in order to clarify the issue, “said Mühlenfeld now the Tagesspiegel. “We should work together and not beharken publicly us.” Last week the vice-district of Dahme-Spreewald, the new Baubeigeordnete Chris Halecker (Left) “political pressure” Berlin had complained to the BER competent planning authority, which as well as the had been criticized Eisenbahnbundesamt of Berlin airport coordinator Engelbert Lütke-Daldrup.

Known station and terminal is the problem since 2012, but had been ignored for years what Mühlenfeld also not denies. “This is the failure of the airport.” The problem will only be processed in February 2016 because the authority for years delayed the evidence in the current approval process demands now categorically. Mühlenfeld confirmed that it will take some time until the required “interface document” is worked out.
It must be demonstrated that the separate fire protection systems of the station and Terminal – are matched – for Entrauchungen or evacuations. But until the end of June it will be, in his words, be present to elaborate simulation calculations for smoke extraction. Then they would have tested, incorporated into the document, and everything will be coordinated with the authorities and German railway. This time the airport has not.
“We need to 5.Nachtrag for building permit no later than August. If it later would not hold in 2017 “, Mühlenfeld said. Therefore, the airport manager is hoping that even a compromise can be found. He could be such that documents submitted later and would be later than the start of the airport. If not, Mühlenfeld, the authority could refuse to release the terminal still. “A permit is no loss.”

Mühlenfeld stressed however: “There is still a chance to create 2017th” A rejection of the opening date now would only draw new problems and delays according to his words. “An appointment debate would now untimely,” he said. It was just about to “nail the construction companies on dates.” Also by sticking pressure on site necessary.
