Alleged clandestine operations reported at Agregados Las Galeras SRL

In recent days, residents of the Las Galeras community have shared on social media several videos showing movements of trucks and heavy machinery at the facilities of Agregados Las Galeras SRL during the early hours of the morning. These images suggest that the company may be carrying out extraction and transportation activities of aggregates outside the current legal framework.

During regular daytime operating hours, the quarry remains completely idle, with no evidence of visible work, which contrasts with the nighttime activities captured by the community members. This practice reinforces the suspicion that the work is being carried out clandestinely with the possible intention of evading regulatory oversight.

It should be remembered that the company is sanctioned by the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, an entity that ordered the total halt of the commercialization, processing, and mobilization of aggregates due to non-compliance with environmental regulations and the corresponding permits.
