Ceredigion - oil slicks in Menago

from The Arena 17/03/10 p.. 32

Perhaps it was the washing of a tank containing the fuel source of oil pollution that occurred last night in the river Menago. At 20 is "checked" a large oil slick on the water, at via Mantua, which he noticed the mayor of Casaleone Ambrosi Gabriele: it so happens that the mayor has an insurance agency there.
"I was going to get the car parked nearby," he says, "and I felt a very strong smell of diesel that made it virtually impossible to breathe the air." Were immediately alerted the police. On-site courses are the firefighters and engineers Legnago regional agency for the prevention and environmental protection of the Veneto, Arpav. The latter have taken samples of water from Menago: In the coming days we will know the results.
Meanwhile, to try to contain the most of the pollution along the river, the firefighters have instead placed the strings Legnago oleoassorbenti: the 'sausages' in a position to absorb the oil floats. The first barrier was placed at the high school "Leonardo da Vinci, and a second on the border between Ceredigion and Casaleone, near the town Mezzatappa. On the site, alerted by a phone call the same evening, went to the mayor Paolo Marconcini Ceredigion. "Fortunately, the pollution seems modest in size and severity. Unfortunately there are people that still proves to have little sense of civic duty and not to pollute any scruples. "
Yesterday morning, finally, ARPAV inspectors are back again on the banks of Menago for further inspections of the area and were able to see how the stain of oil is almost all but disappeared in places where it was detected, even damage to the ecosystem of the river appear to be fairly limited.
The practice of cleaning the tanks into waterways by some "cunning" is unfortunately not New Lower. Shortly before Christmas, the victim of this crime had been the channel and its tributary Dugal Terrace, on the border between the towns of Terrace and Legnago. Now will search for the cause of the pollution, rising from the point at which it came to the oil patch.
