Coast Guard of Oristano at work in the small port of Torregrande, where last night a fishing boat of about 12 meters sank. The report to the operations room arrived around 9 pm, with the patrol on land.
Once it was established that there was no one on board, the military personnel continued operations that averted a potential environmental disaster. The owner of the vessel, a fisherman from the area, will have to take care of avoiding any potential pollution.
The company “Marine Oristanesi”, concessionary manager of the marina, has then positioned 30 meters of “floating booms”, to contain future spills. It will be the responsibility of the Port Authority of Oristano to understand the causes of the sinking and agree with the owner on the methods for refloating the vessel.
