Two hundred kilograms of special waste were seized by the Carabinieri of Mirabella Eclano, in the province of Avellino, during a series of targeted environmental checks on the territory. The operation is part of the surveillance plan established by the prefect of Avellino, Rossana Riflesso, in close collaboration with the Prosecutor's Office headed by Domenico Airoma.

The military intercepted a truck loaded with materials considered special waste, which did not have the necessary transport permits.

The vehicle was immediately seized, and the driver, a 53-year-old man living in the area, was charged with illegal waste transportation and had his driving license suspended.

The operation is part of a broader plan to combat environmental crimes that has affected Irpinia in recent months, with the aim of protecting the region from illegal dumping and illicit trafficking of hazardous materials.

It's a serious matter that special waste exists without permits, but I wonder if the controls are truly effective. Citizens need to be better informed about the risks and potential penalties.
