The Plan MARM positively assess the improvement of irrigation water reservoir covered by Argos Calasparra (19/07/2010)

The Government delegate, Rafael González Tovar, today announced that the Ministry of Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs has favorably evaluated the project "Improvement Plan, modernization and strengthening of the Community Irrigation Irrigation water regulated by the reservoir of Argos in Calasparra (Murcia)-Phase II ", concluding that as long as authorized in the selected alternative and the inferred conditions of the evaluation process will be adequately protected the environment and natural resources.

The aim of the Modernisation Plan is available in crops managed by the Community of Irrigators of a network of pipes that allow the introduction of drip irrigation ditches replacing currently used for irrigation or flood blanket.

The project sponsor is the state-owned Water Mediterranean Basin SA (ACUAMED).

Existing infrastructure generally have a poor condition, so that with the implementation of the project will greatly improve efficiency in water consumption, increasing from the current 50-60% to 90% with drip system .

This system will also provide improved product quality and savings in labor and fertilizer as well as a contribution to environmental improvement in the area.

The DIA approved today provides for specific measures such as limiting the minimum surface removal of topsoil, use where possible, existing roadsides and areas of high human impact, restoring the original conditions of the existing roads affected.

In order to protect the hydrology prohibits any type of maintenance and provides that the auxiliaries are not installed close to the natural water (minimum 200 meters).

In addition, prior to carrying out river crossings have authorization from the Segura basin in which it established the technical conditions for their successful implementation.

The EIS also states that measures to prevent the dumping of solid waste in any amount and nature channels and banks of watercourses, permanent or temporary, and direct disposal of liquid waste without prior clearance and ensure a ecological flow.

The performance will include a habitat restoration program in the river Argos, in the section between the reservoir of Argos and the place called "Cuesta Branca" (Calasparra).

Provided that the pipes run through existing roads and / or currently cultivated land, without affecting the natural vegetation (except for crossings over the river Argos) and provided they take the environmental improvements proposed in the report General Directorate of Natural Heritage and Biodiversity of the Ministry of Agriculture and Water in the Region of Murcia, the condition of Natura 2000 will be compatible with the natural values for which these areas have been protected.

During the operational phase only emphasizes the visual impact that will produce visible infrastructure works, which are the houses of the filtrate and the boxes for the accommodation of hydraulic elements.

To avoid this impact wherever possible, the IAD requires that the design has characteristics similar to farm buildings in the area.

Since this project affects the Public Utility Forestry start of construction is to be communicated to the competent authorities in the management of public forests in the Region of Murcia.
