A glimpse of paradise violated by unacceptable behavior: this is what the Coast Guard found, who, together with ARPAC personnel and Maiori municipal police officers, seized a restaurant located along the stunning Amalfi Coast. The reason? Serious environmental irregularities in the management of the business's wastewater.
During targeted checks on tourist and recreational activities along the coast, it was discovered that the restaurant was operating in violation of the Consolidated Environmental Act, disposing of wastewater in a manner that did not comply with current regulations. This behavior, in an area of high natural value such as Maiori, risks having very serious consequences on the marine environment and on the balance of the local ecosystem.
The business owner has been reported to the judicial authorities. Meanwhile, the premises remain under seizure, while investigations continue to determine the extent of the environmental damage and whether other businesses are involved in similar practices. This is a blow to the Amalfi Coast's image, right in the heart of the tourist season.

This is a worrying and unacceptable situation. Behaviors that damage the environment cannot be tolerated, especially in such beautiful places as the Amalfi Coast. We hope action is taken.
