The discovery was reported on July 11 by the non-governmental organization Garda Națională de Mediu, publishing video footage from the scene.
The Environmental Protection Inspectorate responded to the video published on social networks and announced the start of an inspection.
Experts went to the scene to find out the circumstances of the incident and assess possible damage to the environment.
The department clarified that the documents found at the landfill will be transferred to the competent authorities for further verification.
