The mayor’s ordinance says people in the area of the fire must wash fruit well and eat it without the peel, as well as refrain from eating meat, dairy products and eggs, and avoid animal feed and fodder.
It also orders special cleaning of roads and public and private open spaces.
The ordinance signed by first citizen Roberto Lagalla.
It covers the 4 km area where regional environmental agency ARPA found the presence of dioxin produced by the fire in the Bellolampo landfill between July 24 and 25.
Sicily has ensured a spate of wildfires lately which have led to the temporary closure of Catania and Palermo airports and killed at least three people.
