In this study, we analysed data collected during the installation of an underwater power pipeline in the Sarno river delta up to the island of Capri. This paper aims to investigate submarine pollution variability and the impact of the Sarno River Plan on the receiving marine basin. Statistical analyses were employed to shed light on the presence of organic and inorganic pollutants in this densily area of Naples Bay.
