In a note released today, the Añorga regatta appeared yesterday morning covered with “spectacular foams” of drinking water. “The foam, instead of dissolving over time, has been going down the river and at noon it had reached Hell,” the environmental group said. They call on the institutions to investigate "correctly" the origin of the spillage and to impose "appropriate" penalties on those responsible for the spillage.
Eitb.eus reports that the Basque Government’s Department of Security has confirmed the appearance of the foam and a technician from the URA Agency has analysed the sampling. However, data on the origin of the landfill, which has recently been discharged, have not yet been provided.
