Thousands of dead fish wash up due to pollution in the waters of Paranoa, Brazil

The margin of the basin of Lake Paranoa dawned this Saturday (1/7) with thousands of dead fish. The point that is close to the Rural Core of Boqueirão, is with the cloudy water and a foam characteristic of pollution. Nearby, there is a sewage treatment plant of the company of environmental sanitation of the Federal District (Cebs).
 
The company ensures that there is no fault in the treatment of water dumped into the river. According to the Chief Executive Officer of the water regulatory agency of the Federal District (Adasa), Paulo Salles, the problem is that there was not enough water in the River to dilute the effluent from treated sewage at the station.
 
In a meeting this morning, it was decided, therefore, that floodgates of the dam of the Paranoa would be open to a larger amount of water and oxygen in place and prevent the deaths of more fish.
 
The Instituto Brasília (Ibram) still do analyses to assess water quality and identify if there are any environmental crime.
