In the press conference after the meeting of the technical and scientific committees, Morcuende has indicated that the judicial authority and the Civil Guard are in charge of the necessary steps to clarify the facts, so has asked “not to venture” to comment on this “burdensome matter”.
He has insisted on waiting for the autopsy and court reports to be completed “to be able to speak properly and with knowledge of the causes of this person’s death.”
The technical director has reiterated the need to continue complying with the procedure indicated for cleaning the roofs that can be visited and the need for self-protection to try to avoid accidents that could occur “in the exercise of an activity that is subject to protocol and, therefore, regulated”.
The need to clean the ash from the roofs was put on the table “from the first moment” in which the accumulation of volcanic material began “and we were very clear that it had to be allowed and protocolized, in collaboration with the municipalities”.
For this reason, the Pevolca security group receives the information of the people who are going to enter to clean with a well-executed procedure in which everyone has to be clear about their individual responsibility and that they cannot act alone in an emergency zone, Therefore, it is also requested to have “a lifeline” to hold on to in case the cover yields or a fall occurs, he insisted.
Each city council must have registered the people who are going to do this work the next day and that list, with its corresponding person in charge, is sent to the Civil Guard, Morcuende has continued, who has clarified that the UME and the firefighters work in this work at all times but they cannot cope, and many neighbors want to clean their roofs following the aforementioned protocol.
He stressed that the protocol for cleaning ash on roofs works really well and is regulated so that no one acts alone, while he has asked to wait until the proceedings are completed to find out the cause of death of the man found dead in Corazoncillo.
