The domino effect Shock the Valley looking for volunteers to go Vomano

One of the first thoughts I had when it passed the earthquake, the strong one on April 6, so to speak, was: who knows what happened to the lake and dams in the valley Vomano.

Thereafter, the seismic shift toward Campotosto has exacerbated this concern. Now talk about all of this great lake, 1,400 acres, I do not know how many millions of cubic meters of water, which rises to an altitude of over 1,300 meters.

Let's look better, as it formed? The lake is located on a former peat bog, which was flooded due to being closed in the 30s through three different dams. The first bank is located a few meters from the town of Poggio Cancelli, just above the houses of the country, here's a photo ( http://www.poggiocancelli.it/ ) quite explanatory of its location.

A second dam in , picture http://www.meteogiornale.it/ , (do not be surprised, the lake usually freezes in winter) is located in the eastern part of the lake in the area that hangs over the upper valley of Vomano. A third dam, but overlooks the narrow valley of the Rio Fucino also tributary of the river which flows in Vomano in the neighborhood of Aprati (village of Croghan), this barrier is used as an emissary of the lake and has served in recent days considerably lowering the water level of the basin.

The lake is part of a complex water system for the production of electricity to which they belong integral two other reservoirs located a little further down the winding, narrow valley Vomano. A first branch is that of Providence (see photo of Rolling Riders MTB ) which follows the further downstream a second smaller basin, with a cap to Piaganini Acito of 217 cubic meters ( see photo Fabrizio Sulli).

The three reservoirs are all part of the basin Vomano side of the valley, a valley up to a few hundred meters from the town of Montorio al Vomano is narrow and winding, with more akin to a real groove with respect to a Valley Classic, in a nutshell is a long natural funnel. The fact that the larger basin, which is to Campotosto, is also one located further upstream is a major concern. Its eventual failure would trigger a domino effect where the effects are obvious. Beyond the Valley of the figure as a city with nine thousand inhabitants Montorio and later to the coast there are many other towns of a certain size.

With this paper I do not want to alarm anyone, of course, at this stage there is not really needed, but only to explain how this area is shaped from a territorial point of view. Know what you are talking is always better.

reading the national newspapers it seems that the emergence of these days is confined to 'Aquila. There is much talk of Aterno, we often hear about the area and sometimes Campotosto plateau of the Rocche. The rest is silence almost deafening. And 'as if the earthquake had explained his destructive force within the geographical boundaries defined. Yet there were also significant damage elsewhere, even, in some places are increasing in these last days. The latest shock with an epicenter around Lake Campotosto have caused several injuries and slumps in many municipalities of Teramo.

The situation is particularly delicate in Pietracamela, where people sleeping in makeshift shelters on the night of April 6. The mayor informed me that it has no curtains wide and spacious older people prefer to sleep on a bus ARPA. A tent 8 / 10 seats with 20 cots and 20 sleeping bags were purchased with a subscription by many friends and members of the subsection of the Cai Pietracamela. More details are available on the website of subsection www.caipietracamela.it

Displaced increase in Teramo from day to day, crack open any new shock, injury and causes micro-collapse. Castelli are damaged many buildings in the center, the museum of ceramics and the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli, which is at risk of collapse. He holds the beautiful church of San Donato with its famous ceiling covered with ceramic tiles. We are assessing the damage to the Mother Church in the center of the country, in case of unavailability would constitute a danger to all the neighboring houses. Unable to use even the doctor's office, but fortunately the first geological surveys carried out on the ridge on which the country has shown worrying cracks.

more or less serious damage in many other municipalities in the foothills of the Gran Sasso and further downstream until Teramo and St. Nicholas in Tordino where several buildings are uninhabitable. The first surveys of the firefighters, assisted by technical teams has led to the evacuation of 180 buildings within the sole province of Teramo.
At this point, and endure the earthquake, it is hoped that the creation of COM (Joint Operations Centre) strong demand from municipalities in the foothills at the meeting on the afternoon of Easter Monday, is the first step to take note of the serious situation which is also experiencing this part of Abruzzo. The COM should lead quickly to the official recognition of the state of emergency prerequisite to enable after the reconstruction.

For those who do not know what is the COM (I had not heard about until yesterday) is an organization coordinated by the Abruzzo region, based in Montorio al Vomano which will coordinate all the institutions in that area (municipalities, provinces, prefecture), drawing on the work of many professionals have become available free of charge (architects, geologists, surveyors and engineers) will carry out a detailed census of the affected buildings.

Earthquake An earthquake in Sicily Valle

Even our beloved valley been involved by the seismic events of recent days. Several houses have been damaged a bit but mainly Castles' in all municipalities in the area. A Colledara were declared uninhabitable housing.

At this time in the parking underneath the monastery of San Gabriel is setting up a tent for the reception of displaced persons Aquila not only but also for those of surrounding municipalities.

The most serious event that hit the community of the valley was certainly the death of Paul Verzillo student Forca di Valle died Sunday night in the collapse of the house of Aquila to stay for study purposes.

But the panic that hit the population creates a social situation very difficult. The fact that the strongest shock so far have occurred mainly in the evening or at night put everyone in a position of uncertain pending against the nth shock. No longer sleep at home, organized themselves for who can go home with friends or relatives, the more they sleep in the car or in a tent in the gardens.

In the coming days I will be in the area, if I try to update you with more news.
