Hi all,
Here is an extract from "https://thestar.com.my"
"...A shack to store construction materials and equipment has been covered with overgrowth and receptacles amid the tanks and rusty machinery are found to contain stagnant water..."

I would like to know if "that" is missing from the article as in "....amid the tanks and rusty machinery that are found to contain stagnant water..."?

The sentence is certainly ungrammatical as you have written it.

Please post a link to the source so we can see more context.

My suggestion.
