On the initiative of the eco-organisation APER PYRO, partner of ACR+ member Region SUD Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, a new collection of out-of-date distress flares is organised until 10 October in the three coastal departments of the region: Bouches-du-Rhône, Alpes-Maritimes and Var.
With 147 ports spread over its 1,000 kilometres of coastline, the Region SUD Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur is today the leading maritime region in France, with a particularly dynamic nautical industry. This operation affirms the common will of all the partners to promote eco-responsible practices in terms of nautical leisure activities as well as better waste management on an individual and collective scale.
