For several days, fuel oil odors have been noticeable around the Champ Sappey crossroads area, Rue du Cimetière, and the village hall in Crêts en Belledonne, as well as in the surrounding vicinity.

The community of communes and the municipality's technical services are actively working to identify the source of these fumes.
Residents in the affected areas and nearby are requested to check for any abnormal drop in their fuel oil tank levels, as a leak is strongly suspected.
It is advisable to check if the tank may have been refilled within the last fortnight and to verify the consistency between delivered volumes and the current tank volume.
Any abnormal decrease observed should be reported to the municipality's technical services.
