The liquid had a strong smell of fuel or chemical, so agents suspected it was dangerous, so they immediately ordered the cessation of activity.
The person who was pouring the liquid, the driver of the truck, confessed to dumping between 3,000and 5,000 litres, so a well was formed on the damaged site, at which point the agents identified the workers and the manager of the company, took samples of the spilled liquid and the tanker truck, and took the necessary steps to determine whetherthe productwas being illegally committed for possible toxicity.
The report was sent to the Public Prosecutor's Office for the Environment, which ordered the transfer of samples to the National Institute of Toxicology and Forensic Sciences in Madrid, which confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons and found that the spillcould cause"serious damage to the natural environment" .
As a result of the institute's report, the Environment Prosecutor's Office has filed a complaint for finding evidence of an alleged environmental offence.
