L'incidente ha riguardato una delle tubature che portano il carburante dalla banchina ai depositi della termocentrale. Dalla condotta, interrata nel cemento, è fuoriuscito l'olio che prima ha invaso la banchina e poi è finito in mare. In un primo momento si era parlato di "una modesta quantità", ma l'aspetto delle spiagge racconta un'altra storia. E in realtà la Capitaneria ha quantificato la perdita in 10 metri cubi (foto Mauro Chessa e Andrea Sini)
