TOKYO (AP) The world tallest tower and Japan biggest new landmark, the Tokyo Skytree, opened to the public on Tuesday.
Nearly 8,000 visitors were expected to take highspeed elevators up to the observation decks of the 634meter (2,080foot) tower to mark its opening. Some reportedly waited in line more than a week to get the coveted tickets for a panoramic view, though Tuesday ended up being cloudy in Tokyo.
The world tallest structure is Dubai Burj Khalifa, which stands 828 meters (2,717 feet). That in a different category because it a skyscraper, not a tower.
The Skytree will serve as a broadcast tower for television and radio, along with being a tourist attraction. It replaces the 333metertall (1,092 1/2foottall) Tokyo Tower a symbol of Japan capital since 1958 as the broadcast hub.7 drilling horrifies locals
The approval of a four month, 24hour oil drilling operation on Stewart Island has horrified some residents who claims it will destroy a move towards ecotourism spanning two decades.
Yesterday the Southland District Council (SDC) granted New Zealandowned Greymouth Petroleum Ltd consent to carry out petroleum exploration and to drill a well site on private land on Horseshoe Bay Rd.
The nonnotified resource consent, which allows for 24hour drilling operations, temporary buildings and minor earthworks, has angered some residents who claim they were shut out of decision making.
SDC senior resource management planner Jennifer Green, in a press release, said the council had received written approval for the drilling from all adjoining landowners and occupiers.
The ODT understands this includes nine affected landowners as well as Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu and Te Ao Marama. Contacted landowners declined to comment yesterday.
Greymouth Petroleum Ltd also declined to comment to media yesterday, but the Otago Daily Times understands drilling at the former quarry could begin as soon as next week.
Stewart Island resident Dr Britt Moore said she was appalled by the "crazy" nonnotified decision, which had angered many of the 380strong island population.
"The lack of public input is disgraceful. We were never even given a chance to fight against it."
A petition would be made available at the local RSA hall tomorrow, with support from the Green Party and Greenpeace likely to result in protest action.
Earlier this week Dr Moore, who owns Stewart Island Spa, spoke to residents going to the local store about the proposal, and found at least 80 residents in opposition with more expected.
The former Unesco World Heritage Centre employee said this move would effectively destroy any longheld ambition of making the island a world heritage site.
"It is established all over the world that fossil fuel drilling ruins ecotourism."
Since the fishing quota system was introduced in 1989, the SDC had helped the island's population "transition from a fishing economy to an ecotourism economy".
Stewart Island Community Board chairman Jon Spraggon said the board was supportive of the initial "oneoff well, and then the whole thing would be reevaluated".
A spokeswoman for John Key said the Prime Minister had "consistently said that if New Zealanders want to have better jobs and better incomes, we should be exploring the natural resources we have".
"However, economic benefits must be balanced with environmental protection."
