1. A car washing and lubricating company has been operating for more than 10 years in a terrain with the following characteristics: porous, filterable with a freatic level near to the surface (5 m depth). This area is close to the estuary which is very useful to them since all the disposals and waste generated by this activity are directly released into the estuary. These disposals contain a high level of oils and greases. All the dumping from the car maintenance goes directly into the soil since there are no palettes or gutters. The operation hours are 20 hours for seven days a week.
