The Region has given the green light to the project presented by Eni for the operational safety of the area where the Crotone gas plant is located. This is what the Citadel’s Environment, Landscape and Urban Quality department decided. Which he expressed favorable opinion on environmental remediation interventions as part of the services conference called by the Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security to evaluate the reclamation of an area, covering 35 thousand square meters and included in the Sin of Crotone, which appears to be contaminated by hydrocarbons, benzene, arsenic and chlorinated solvents . At the same time, the Region has established a series of requirements that the multinational will have to comply with: compliance with sector regulations for the creation of coverage, or capping; obtaining all environmental authorizations; the absence of interference; and the agreement with Arpacal for the actions to be performed. The final word will be up to Mase.
The plant in via Leonardo da Vinci processes the methane which is brought to the surface by the platforms of the six-legged dog company positioned in front of the coasts of Crotone – Luna A, Luna B and Hera Lacinia – in order to be injected into the national network. In summary, the works plan involves the tombing, i.e. the use of the capping technique, of the remediation site to manage the passage of rainwater from the soil to the aquifer. Next, there will be the drainage of the water that will slip from the roof from time to time. And finally, space for the optimization of water extraction activities from the underground aquifer that passes through polluted land.
