The June DUA for the Caniga pig farm in Sassari is also inadmissible. This is confirmed by SUAPE, the One-Stop Shop for Productive Activities and Construction, which on December 30th issued a ruling challenging the zero-day Single Enabling Declaration of June 25th submitted by the Antonio Moro company.
It specifies that the intervention, it is written, "is to be considered without a permit", and invites the interested party "to remove any effects of the activity carried out", imposing "an absolute ban on emissions into the atmosphere".
This step takes into account the proposed prohibitory measure formulated by the Metropolitan City of Sassari and its Waste Management Planning - Air Protection Service III. This had already led to the self-management cancellations of three other applications between June, November, and December.
The Caniga breeding farm, in operation since October, had sparked controversy from the very first days, both from residents, gathered in the "Elephant in the Room" committee, and from environmental groups. After an initial green light, the bans were issued in early December. The facility's managers now have the option of appealing to the Conference of Services and the Regional Administrative Court (TAR). They have announced that the matter is being handled by a lawyer and that further developments will be forthcoming.
