The European Commission on
Thursday sent Italy a reasoned opinion on smog-causing
particulate matter (PM10) emissions, urging Rome to reply within
two months showing the "appropriate" action it will take or be
reported to the European Court of Justice. The move, the second
step in an infringement procedure, was taken after daily PM10
limits were breached in 30 areas. Regions including Lombardy,
Veneto, Piedmont, Tuscany, Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia
Giulia, Umbria, Campania, Marche, Molise, Puglia, Lazio and
Sicily are involved.
