The broadcaster 25-channel reports that another oil spill has occurred from old pipes in the settlement of Bartshana in Batum and special services are directed to the scene.
The head of the Security Service of nature of Batumi, Oleg Bolkvadze told the reporters that all the necessary measures are taken to prevent the leaking of oil out of the river Bartshana to the sea.
Note, such issues have been in the past again.
Bolkvadze noted that this case doesn’t relate to the activities of the Batumi oil terminal.
There are many pipes on the place of the former refinery, which for decades accumulate oil, he said.
He stressed that in order to completely resolve this problem, it is necessary to open land in a large area, to discover old pipes and clean the area from oil, but it will cost lot of money.
