The offensive of the Coast Guard on the Messina beaches continues to combat illegal behaviors during the bathing season. After Ganzirri, today also in Torre Faro.
Over 10 quintals of material, including a hundred umbrellas, about 300 between chairs and deck chairs, and two unauthorized fixed structures, were seized this morning on the free beach of Torre Faro. The operation, conducted by the Port Authority of Messina in collaboration with the Municipal Police and the Messina Servizi company, is part of a larger campaign to combat the illegal employment of the maritime state property.
The intervention had as its objective the removal of equipment left unattended on the beachoften with the aim of “booking” portions of public coast. According to reports from the coast guard, this type of conduct violates the rules that guarantee the free use of the beaches and, in some cases, also highlights the safety of bathers.
Particularly dangerous have proved to be the two seized structures, installed without authorization and anchoring in a precarious way. The authorities recall that any form of stable or extended employment of the state -owned soil is prohibited without regular permit, both with fixed and removable structures that prevent free access or place dangers to public safety.
Controls will continue in the next few days throughout the coast of the Messina Maritime Compartment by the Coast Guard Environmental Police Unit, engaged in a systematic supervisory activity against all forms of abuse.
