GOTEC is a diverse, grassroots organisation committed to preserving the natural beauty and quality of life of Lincolnshire's coastline. United across all backgrounds and political allegiances, we stand against this massive and unnecessary industrialisation threatening valuable agricultural land, beautiful and wildlife-rich coast, and the wider Lincolnshire hinterland.
In 2022, a whistle-blower, notified the BBC about secret negotiations between Nuclear Waste Services and Lincolnshire County Council. Those negotiations were the forerunner for investigations into the siting of a nuclear waste disposal facility at the old Conoco gas terminal in Theddlethorpe. Outraged by the thought of this unspoilt area of Lincolnshire being even thought of for hosting highly radioactive nuclear waste beneath the sea just off our coastline and with above ground facility of around one square kilometre in footprint, campaigners formed a group which was named Guardians of the East Coast.
Subseqently further threats to our beautiful landscapes and agricultural heritage have emerged. Each demanding response so that the threats to our area and livelihoods are challenged.
