Spill at sea on the Domitian coast, investigation by the Prosecutor

An investigation for environmental pollution was opened by the Prosecutor of the Republic of Santa Maria Capua Vetere (Caserta) after the sighting of a black spot in the stretch of sea between Castel Volturno and Mondragone from the Agnena channel, in the Caserta area. The investigating office awaits the outcome of the analyzes carried out by Arpac technicians on the water samples taken last night, but in the meantime it is verifying the origin of the spill through the Port Authority of Castel Volturno, delegated to the investigations.

The area was flown over with drones, but no point along the course of the canal from which the illegal drain would have originated would have been identified. The Agnena starts from the area of ​​Caiazzo, in the Upper Casertano area, crossing the Campania plain for tens of kilometers to flow near Castel Volturno, not far from the polluted mouth of the Volturno river and the Regi Lagni. The mayor of Castel Volturno Luigi Petrella has clear ideas , certain that it is "yet another illegal spill affecting Castel Volturno, caused by some industrial or manufacturing activity.Any perpetrators should be put in jail, because they are criminals who damage the environment and the economy of a territory already very tried for the Coronavirus emergency. The state must intervene decisively. "

Petrella also rejects the accusations against the many buffalo farms or dairies in the area. "These activities - explains Petrella - have nothing to do with the black spot; these are activities that have continued to operate even during the lockdown, and have not created any problems. Same goes for private homes".
