The Guardia di Finanza of Napoli and the Coast Guard of Pozzuoli have detected irregularities in the transport of waste coming from Ischia and Procida during a series of Checks.
In particular, last August 7th the transported loads and the related EER (European Waste List) codes were examined to verify the correspondence and compliance with road safety regulations, in relation to the load limits of heavy vehicles containing waste materials and materials from excavations.
A static weighing was carried out which led to the contestation, against some drivers, of the violation provided for by art. 167, paragraph 2, of the Highway Code, regarding the vehicles with a total laden mass greater than that indicated in the registration document.
Six drivers were also fined for failure to comply with the provisions of the Ordinance of the Maritime District Office of Pozzuoli, regarding vehicular circulation in the port.
The activity, promoted by the prefect of Naples Michele Di Bari within the recent Committees for public order and safety, is part of a provincial plan aimed at intensifying the fight against the illegal economy, protecting the environment and ensuring the traceability of waste.
