The Department of Environment of the City of Mazarrón has sent a request to the Segura basin (CHS) to rush the cleaning and improving the channels of the streams of mulberry trees, Villalba and Pastrana for filing "a high risk of flooding a possible drop cold. "
The area councilor, David Fernandez, already called on 8 August that the clean-up of a series of boulevards in the municipality but to the surprise of mayor, "a regional newspaper on Monday published a story about the cleaning of a series of ravines between which does not include any for the municipality. "
Given this fact, Fernandez has raised a new request to the CHS and that "due to exceptional weather conditions endured high temperatures this summer, they constitute a risk scenario for the impending cold drop in autumn."
So once again been asked to proceed "to the timely cleaning of the streams whose lengths are at increased risk of flooding."
Fernandez believes that such work "should not take more time because each day that passes increases the risk of occurrence of a cold drop and its consequences, unless we take appropriate measures, can be catastrophic."
