Phulbari.org…..recap on Teesta
PowerChina, having signed a MOU to develop the mine, including removal of the overburden, is also working with the government on implementing the nearby Teesta River reclamation project, it has been speculated that overburden from Phulbari would be utilised in that process. As with the Phulbari project discussions are ongoing between stakeholders, future partners and the government. China has stated it will expand Rail projects in Bangladesh ready for the Teesta Project, doing so could also facilitate the transportation of Phulbari coal to existing coal power plants.
