Firstly, black holes are still theoretical, secondly, they don't know if black holes can be formed in this thing (if at all), and thirdly, the black holes will be too small and have too little mass to do anything resembling damage if they are produced. Black holes decay and get smaller over time, so infinitesimally small holes shouldn't really have time to do anything

Edit: Although I could be wrong and when this thing goes live... BAM - or slluuurrrppp (a sucking noise) lol ;p
