Este acuerdo se produce despu\u00e9s de que la investigaci\u00f3n de Baykeeper revelara pruebas de vertidos derivados de la carga de buques mercantes entre noviembre de 2020 y octubre de 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Las presuntas infracciones se refieren al coque de petr\u00f3leo transportado por el viento, un residuo del proceso de refinado del petr\u00f3leo que puede contener metales nocivos como el cobre, el zinc, el n\u00edquel, el ars\u00e9nico, el mercurio y el vanadio. Aunque los demandados no han admitido ninguna infracci\u00f3n, reconocen la gravedad de la demanda.<\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan los t\u00e9rminos del acuerdo, Valero y Amports han acordado pagar $2,38 millones para mitigar el da\u00f1o medioambiental causado por sus actividades. Estos fondos ser\u00e1n gestionados por la Fundaci\u00f3n Rose para las Comunidades y el Medio Ambiente (Fundaci\u00f3n Rose) y se destinar\u00e1n a apoyar proyectos que mejoren la calidad del agua en la cuenca hidrogr\u00e1fica de la Bah\u00eda de San Francisco y el Delta. La Fundaci\u00f3n Rose tiene previsto comenzar a ofrecer subvenciones en la convocatoria de primavera de 2025 del Fondo de Protecci\u00f3n de Cuencas Hidrogr\u00e1ficas de California.
