Cospicua Mayor Alison Zerafa has complained to the Malta Environment and Planning Authority after speckles of white particles shrouded Cospicua yesterday and over the past days, apparently as a result of grit blasting at the dockyard. 

Residents said the particles were a hazard to their health as well as an inconvenience.

Mepa is investigating, however the results of another investigation a year ago are still not known.
