For years the neighbours of the San Julián district of Muskiz have been facing the problems of the factory that Petronor has a few meters from it. One night in November, a neighbor recorded images showing the explosions that were produced in large tubes.

Amelia García, neighboring San Julián, has told ARGIA that the operation of the factory is "very rare and furtive". In fact, he has reported that many noises and smells are emitted from the building, but in the meantime, both the company and the Muskiz City Hall have made very few statements about it: "Information on the building was announced in May. While our protests have continued, it has been many months until a new statement has been made."

Irregularity of reports

Petronor and Muskiz City Hall have not reported any serious incidents and have informed residents that controls and tests have been carried out and that no unusual incidence has been detected in these reports. García, for his part, said that these controls "can be manipulated in some way, and in that case control is not control".

Here are the images taken by the residents of the neighborhood of San Julián during the month of November:
