- The City Hall of Barakaldo has demanded the Biscay company to pay a fine of EUR 11,800 and to close it for three months at night. Oxinorte Gas has 15 days from the receipt of the notification of municipal sanction to provide all documents and allegations it deems relevant.

The Councillor for Sustainable Development and Natural Environment of Barakaldo has been fined for the serious infringement of the Noise Law and for the problems it creates for the area's neighbours.
The company will not be able to use for three months, between 10 p.m. and 7 p.m., the facilities of the factory that produce “unbearable” noise.
The procedure started this Monday after the weekly noise measurements were taken and the previously required documentation was reviewed. Both the City Council of Barakaldo and the Basque Government have agreed on the measures to be taken in the Strategic Plan.
The decision has been taken two months after the plenary adopted the motion for urgent action.
However, the mayor of Barakaldo, Amaia del Campo, in addition to the approved procedure and the fine, has requested the opening of a second file: “unfortunately, because noise persists and has not been fixed.”
The City Council has ensured that it will use all the legal and legal instruments at its disposal to put an end to this social and employment scourge.
