A cement production plant was flooded following torrential rains that poured down the region. The 35 employees of the plant were on technical unemployment for an undetermined period of time. None of the storage tanks (liquid waste tank, fuel tank) were submerged by the flooding river. All retention proved to be waterproof and the water level did not cross their upper mark. The transfer area and its recovery pit were protected at the start of the flood by a circle of cement bags stacked to four levels that proved to be efficient. The rest of the facility especially the electrical equipment suffered considerable damage.
