“The situation at the San Vitaliano plant in the province of Naples is finally under control as I was able to verify in person and for this I thank the Fire Department, the Carabinieri, Arpac and ASL for the work done”. This is what the Minister of the Environment Sergio Costa wrote in a post on Facebook. “I asked and obtained from the ASL, to protect citizens, the monitoring of fruit and vegetables in the countryside around here. It is clear that 300 fires in two years are not a coincidence – he added – This is why I asked the Minister of the Interior to be able to consider waste storage sites on a par with other sensitive sites in the country and to include them in the Coordinated Land Control Plans in the hands of the Prefect and managed by the police force. This means giving a further preventive guarantee to the citizen but also to the entrepreneur. Minister Salvini will certainly be sensitive to my proposal”. “I have seen photos and videos that citizens have sent me and I do not hide the fact that what I have seen strikes me in the heart every time. I will do everything possible to ensure that these scenarios never happen again. The bicameral commission on waste trafficking did an excellent job in the last legislature. That work should not be thrown away, the new government should not throw it away”. This is what Sergio Costa, Minister of the Environment, said today during a visit to the plant that caught fire yesterday in San Vitaliano. “We need to take the work done by the commission – he continues -, the in-depth analyses, and start from that”.
