"rubbish CONNECTION: THE CROSSROADS OF Pitelli
They always called the gulf of poets. Sung by Shelley and loved by Wagner. Since the hill overlooking the harbor and 'was marred, scarred in La Spezia, with great bitterness, they call it now the Gulf of poisons. The poisons are buried in landfill Pitelli the center of an investigation that leads far, the general dishonesty of toxic wastes. Rubbish connection, trillions, poisons and mysteries. As a small cloud of yellow and you do not 'yet been able to establish their origins. One day he hit four technicians who ended up in hospital, intoxicated. Others who worked here have died in past years. Definitely a laborer and a truck driver accidentally hit the gas. But it also speaks of another dead, perhaps buried in the same landfill. How much fear and many mysteries. Among the concerns most 'alarming' that poisons Bloodhounds of Seveso are buried here as well as acne Cengio, often referred to in the intercepts between technical Pitelli committed to what it 'shown on page. 54 minutes of the proceedings. A few pages before you even speak of Romanian products, confirming the confidence that we have collected from the investigators. Among the drums found there would in fact written in "various European languages, even in Cyrillic. So the nightmare of nuclear power. What hides the Hill shame it established 'the panel of experts appointed by the court of Liguria. Certainly Pitelli, the landfill of shame, are already 'been found more' than a hundred toxic barrels. There 's everything, even a paint used exclusively for military use, to obscure the radar. But there 'especially (he already' established a laboratory in Zurich) as confirmed by the dioxins, the magistrate of Asti who opened the investigation, Luciano Tarditi, and the chief of the Forest investigators carrying out the investigation, Francesco Dellana of Forest Rangers in Brescia. Criminal association aimed at environmental disaster. Here is the request of trial that led to thirteen arrests and forty suspects. There are leaders USL, geology of the region, civilian officials of the Ministry of Defence and two admirals. Parallel administrative investigation, conducted by Massimo pm break Scirocco, simultaneously reconstructs the story in 113 pages of concessions illegitimate, forged signatures, missing and abused not pursued projects related to Pitelli. Accused Region and the Municipality, to study the positions of almost all the mayors that have followed since 1979 in La Spezia. The documents are then passed on the desk of the magistrate Silvio Franz break that has had a legacy 'Asti from the investigation.
According to the minutes of eavesdropping, prosecutors suggest the presence of some sort of business committee that would handle all traffic offenses. Inside there would wheeler, members of the Camorra and the mafia, through intersections and sophisticated corporate bonds, as reported by the lawyer Roberto Lemma Legambiente. The agenda of one of the suspects also include the name and telephone numbers of a character certainly disturbing because 'in the middle of a thousand business, "Beans" Pacini Battaglia. Were found in the study of Roman Trunfio, already 'heard from the pool by the Clean Hands in the illegal financing of political parties and a close associate of Horace Duvia, break the farmer considered the king of landfills, rose to national headlines because' one day fetch ', through his daughter, from a bank outside the office and three billion eight hundred million in cash, a sign of great liquidity'. A heritage that the investigating judge Diana Brusac 'seized' cause I suspect the result of activities' illegal, a decision upheld by the Court of Review. Orazio Duvia, now in the wild 'after a month in prison, has maintained for years the landfill Pitelli. A
Pitelli, pending the results of the analysis, the sites are blocked for now. The landfill is not open 'more,' cause the regional council has decided to close the end of March. But while in the country, people are afraid and gets angry with everybody. A fear that slips in Carob, alleys Pitelli, two thousand inhabitants, once a peaceful place without problems. And if there is 'a country that calls for the closure of a landfill, there is' another calling with strength not to open it. From one year the people of Batesville, in Tuscany, but only thirty kilometers from La Spezia, struggling with a garrison and a barrage of complaints against the opening of Ca 'Gaggino, behind the filing of the Navy and a deposit of NATO. They have already 'left exposed to four prosecutors, including the military. Another story, which we are concerned because 'there is something that the league potentially Pitelli. Among the dozens of companies' which directly or indirectly lead to the group Duvia there are some distant, in the south, but others nearby. Three Aulla where they own the contract for waste collection. Not only that. In '95, according to the committee, a company of which he was a member of suspects for the landfill would buy Pitelli the land for the landfill Tuffolo, in those days preferred to Ca 'Gaggino. We avoid the complicated technical disputes. Overcoming the controversy the deputy in charge of the province of Massa Carrara and presents us with the project, certainly cutting-edge of Ca 'Gaggino, and reassures the public officially on the use of the landfill, according to the unanimous decision' by Provincial Council and accepted by the conference of mayors of Lunigiana.
Back where we started. From the gulf of the poets and the great fear. Italian prosecutors are at least ten, coordinated by the National Anti-Mafia Prosecutor, who are investigating this area, the coast in the middle 'between Liguria and Tuscany, in view of a real crossroads of toxic waste to countries for their cooperation. A note found by his parents to the notebook Ilaria Alpi was written "six ships." Vessels from poisons. The day of the TG3, before she was killed, the respondents' the sultan of Bosaso that handles that part of the Somali coast one of the twelve identified as preferential sites for the dumping of toxic waste from the company Comerio. Great mysteries interwoven with the arms trade that often follows the same pathways. In the minutes of the trial of Duvia there 'interception of a phone call between two technical Pitelli, Roberto and Luca Galli Cozzani, which by the triangulation of mentioning the Oto Melara. But most of all the acts there is evidence of a systematic and illegal trafficking of wastes in statements of three texts defined for safety, only A. B and C. Systematic traffic. In January 1990, a master of the English merchant marine submit 'Greenpeace in the harbor of La Spezia was 7 now known worldwide as "The Toxic berth" poisons of the pier, point load of toxic waste headed for Africa . In a dossier presented by Legambiente are reconstructed in a public assembly routes the twenty-three 'poisons' ships disappeared in the Mediterranean. Many have passed away or even games from La Spezia. The unfortunate history of the poisons began exactly ten years ago, in June 1987 when La Spezia are shipped 200,000 tons of toxic waste, Equatorial Guinea destination. At the same time, the game Rigel from nearby Marina di Carrara for the last voyage, sank Sept. 21 off the coast bell. Twenty people were prosecuted for intentional sinking. And then the Radhošť, the Latvia and the "Jolly Nero, all games between January and October 1988 for Africa.
On 18 January 1989 Beirut docks directly from the "Red Jolly" with a cargo of 4,000 barrels. For four and a half years and the toxic material 'stored in La Spezia and then again on July 9, 1993. Lieutenant Commander Natale De Grazia, 39, a technical consultant to the Reggio pm Francesco Blacks, Part 12 December last year with a mandate to question its crew of Jolly Red but did not arrive in La Spezia 'ever. The officer was taken ill during the trip. The autopsy, performed one week after the death of and behind presion Magistrat does not confirm the hypothesis of the infarct. On 5 March 1994 from Lebanon arrive in La Spezia, the "Jolly Rubino" with ferrous material from the former Soviet Union, with destination South Africa. In eight containers and 'measured for radioactivity' of 600 bequerels. Sixty of those toxic barrels are then in Austria after transit through South Africa. On 21 October 1995 makes brief stop in La Spezia Koraline the first in Algiers and Marseilles. Starts November 5 with 285 containers. E 'last journey. On the morning of November 7 sinks between Trapani and Ustica for a foul. In containers also uranium 238. On 9 December 1995 the Russian ship "Vjacheslav Shishkov" docks from from Tunisia. Again on 12 after having landed containers where they found traces of cesium-137, highly radioactive material.
The story is not 'over. Only a month ago, the officers discovered the La Spezia port traffuco with a large third world countries to "Algofrene 12, a gas linked to UN-ting 'cause as one of the leading killer of ozone.
The main question that has to resolve the investigation and ': the landfill Pitelli was a goal or just a step or even the departure of containers with toxic waste? Certainly this beautiful bay or from ports of the nearby Tuscan coast games are almost all so-called vessels of poisons.
