Water Quality

Classification E. The Vallechiara treatment plant (biological BNR with anaerobic digestion) serves approximately 70,000 inhabitants and 3,500 equivalent inhabitants from industrial activities. Sewage network covers all urbanized areas; isolated and rural buildings not yet connected. Treatment plant monthly E. coli controls during 2010 ranged from below detection limit to 3000 U.F.C./100 ml (September 2010).

Risks

In April 2007, fuel oil spill from API Refinery caused temporary closure of bathing area. Fibrocapsa japonica algal blooms occurred in August 2009 and late August 2010, producing reddish-brown coloration and oily water consistency. Overflow discharge points exist along the beach when sewage system capacity is exceeded.
