en.Wedoany.com Reported - The local emergency plan for hydrocarbon and potentially hazardous substance spills, activated due to the appearance of an oil slick in Manzanillo Bay (bahía de Manzanillo), Mexico, has been lifted. This decision follows the absence of rainbow-colored sheens observed near the tourist pier in the historic center of Manzanillo, Colima, over the past weekend. Containment booms and absorbent materials have been removed, although continuous monitoring of the area remains in effect.

Surveillance and monitoring operations will continue to protect the marine ecosystem and address potential risks to Mexico's marine environment. The appearance of the oil slick mobilized maritime, port, and environmental authorities, as well as Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex). Relevant agencies conducted investigations to determine the source of hydrocarbons detected on June 2 near the tourist pier and the state-owned company's maritime terminal. The emergency committee was composed of the Sixth Naval Region, the Pacific Naval Force (Fuerza Naval del Pacífico, Fuernavpa), the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (Secretaría del Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales, Semarnat) in Manzanillo, the National Port System Administration (Administración del Sistema Portuario Nacional, Asipona) in Manzanillo, the Honorable City Council of Manzanillo (through its Civil Protection department), Petróleos Mexicanos, and the Manzanillo Regional Port Authority.
