Caserta, special waste treatment plant seized
A hazardous waste treatment facility in Portico di Caserta was seized for environmental violations by Carabinieri from the Marcianise Forestry Station. During a check to combat environmental crimes in the so-called Land of Fires, the officers observed a truck full of what appeared to be metal waste in a rural area in the municipality of Portico di Caserta.
The vehicle was registered to the waste treatment company and was authorized to transport only non-hazardous special waste, while the container contained visible hazardous special waste consisting of metals contaminated by used oil that gave off a strong odor of oil and solvents.
