The Commonwealth of Channels of Taibilla (MCT), an agency under the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, Food and Environment, has reached an agreement with the City of Abarán for the cession of 0.4 cubic hectometres of water.
This is an exceptional measure that is motivated by the persistent drought that undergoes the hydrographic demarcation of the Segura.
The agreement was signed today by the president of the MCT, Adolfo Gallardo, and the mayor of Abarán, Jesus Molina.
The flows that will receive the MCT are surplus.
Specifically, the City of Abarán is the owner of an exploitation with an annual endowment of 1.2 cubic hectometres.
Due to the situation of scarce resources, the MCT requested the Hydrographic Confederation of the Segura (CHS) authorization for this assignment of rights for the supply of the population.
Once authorized by the basin organization, the assignment agreement was made effective today at the headquarters of the CHS.
Both the CHS and the MCT are dependent agencies of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, Food and Environment and both work in a coordinated way in the search for effective solutions against the water deficit that suffers from the southeast of Spain.
These extra resources will be managed by the MCT, the agency responsible for the distribution of water resources among the population.
This measure improves the guarantees of supply of a population that reaches 3.5 million people in the summer.
