The Foundation for Environmental Education gives Calnegre the Blue Flag, which recognizes the exceptional state of Lorca's beaches (14/06/2019)

The Councilor for Tourism of the City of Lorca, Francisco Montiel, has collected this morning at a formal ceremony held at the Institute of Tourism of the Region of Murcia the Blue Flag that will fly on the coast of Lorca, showing that its beaches are an extraordinary place to enjoy the environment and the sea and that its achievement was not the result of chance but the response to the quality of the coast and the work done to meet the necessary parameters for its award by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE).

From the Department of Tourism was requested in June 2016 to make the mandatory visit by inspectors.

After the favorable report, a work commission was set up to achieve final approval and improve the condition of the cove, obtaining in May 2017 for the first time and in 2018 for the second time the Blue Flag.

Now it is reissued after continuing to comply with the different parameters and quality standards and having developed the necessary information and environmental education activities.

Our cove has met the quality standards of bathing waters, performing analyzes every thirty days during the bathing season and adding at least eight a year.

The physical-chemical parameters are also checked to verify that the ph is in the normal range, that there is no floating pollution and that there are no wastewater discharges.

It is also necessary that the beach have a cleaning plan, have containers and selective collection of waste, presence of qualified rescue equipment, first aid equipment and easy and safe access.

It must also have access and services for people with disabilities, and must sign on a map or panel all services and facilities of the beach, as well as information on safety standards, exposure of the results of water analysis, information on activities environmental activities that will be carried out, information about the blue flag program, contact and security telephones, among others.

This project emerged in the hands of the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) in 1985 in France, and began to spread across the continent with the support of the European Commission, although currently there are 49 countries around the world that participate in the project.
