In a note sent to the ministries of the Atmosphere and the economic Development, the city council member to the Quality of the atmosphere of the Region Apulia, Lorenzo Nicastro, has asked to stop the seismic prospectings in the apulian sea.

"Lungi the possession a clear and complete picture of the authorizations which released from the competent ministries for seismic prospectings in our sea - the city council member has explained - we have written newly to the Head office for the Environmental Safeguard in order to ask the suspension for the effectiveness of the authorizations fr.39NP and fr.49NP, because one proceeds to the cancellation of the actions for a re-examination of the procedures and a reopening of the technical preliminarys investigation".

"As many times over we have found - specified Nicastro - the decision not to subject to Appraisal of Environmental impact the authorizations to the Northern Petroleum have prevented to the Region Apulia to bring own contribution in phase of technical preliminary investigation. The appraisal of the regional technicians would have been useful, in case us the possibility had been date to produce it, also to evidence the total impact on the atmosphere of a series of authorizations that afferiscono to bordering areas for indeed not negligible a total surface".

"We assist, in Apulia, until today only in attempt form - it has continued the city council member - to the affirmation of a foreign economic power on our main source of wealth. We do not have to afford to nobody to mortgage "our" sustainability, social and economic, that is the quality of our life and that of the apulian ones of the future. Politics and the active administration are making own part and will continue to completely make it and without reductions in price for nobody, in the knowledge that the war will be long and hard. Also in the knowledge that could not be enough".

"The feeling, once more - it has found Nicastro - is that of marginalization, not only geographic, of people of Apulia. It is necessary, then, that from Trembles to the Head of Leuca, the rebellion that the apulian ones know to exercise, as standard the history, with civil and responsible instruments and modalities, but with as much firm determination, it is testimony for all, national government, Member States of the European Union and economic institutions of any latitude, than every geoeconomica strategy or of economic geopolitics, it will not be able to prescind from the sharing of people of the Apulia. The supremacy on the seas - it has concluded the city council member - not only practices with the armed fleets, but also and above all with garrisons various others and, but of equal symbolic value. The extractive platforms offshore, in bottom, are lay aircraft carriers. They are not laid up. They are alone, as I have already had a chance for say in other occasions, various fitted out".
