On the other hand, TCDD mobilized all relevant departments, especially the Izmir Port Environmental Unit, and provided necessary logistics, security and other support activities. Subsequently, the pollution collection phase was initiated and skimmer / scrapers were launched and the pollution collected from the sea surface was transferred to floating storage tanks. The wastes transferred to the floating storage tanks were sent to licensed waste reception facilities with the possibilities and capabilities of TCDD İzmir Port and the application was terminated.
