Water Councilman qualifies as failure WATER Program, stating that "we have wasted 5 years on all water" (02/02/2009)

"We have wasted five precious years."

This is the valuation that the City Council City Council Water Lorca, Melchor Morales, has made the Central Executive of the Water Programme, introduced in place of the National Water Plan that included the transfer of water from the Ebro to the Southeast.

"The WATER program has been a tremendous failure and can be seen in the recent dismissal of the head of ACUAMED, Adrian Baltanás, which shows that the scheme developed by the PSOE does not meet the goals."

Morales has said that "the desalination plants can never be the solution to correct the water problems on the ground because the price of a liter of desalinated water is 0.60 euros, to be offered to irrigators 0'36 euros, so someone must pay the difference, plus it is the extortionate price that can not be paid by ranchers and farmers.

Meanwhile the price of a liter of water with the Ebro transfer would be 0.09 euros, the fourth part. "

"The Ministry of Environment is looking for solutions to lower the price, like changing the depreciation of the desalination plants under the age of 25 to 50.

But the life of the desalination plant is not even 25 years, a figure dwarfed by the life of a transfer. "

"While the Government is now seeking solutions from the Middle Tajo, Morales reported," we ask the best solution, already studied, planned and awarded: the PHN and the transfer from the Ebro.

According to Councilman Lorca, "a small percentage of water lost to the floods, all Lorca farmers have resources to work for an entire year."

The mayor has been criticized since the PSOE de Lorca "not to recognize his error by defending the AGUA Programme and criticize the Ebro transfer, which would be bringing water to our city.

We lost five years and we can not forgive the Prime Minister. "

On the other hand, Morales reported that the city of Lorca had joined the demonstration called by the Central Union of Irrigation Aqueduct Tajo-Segura (scraf), in defense of the transfer, because "the City is with irrigators and it is our duty to support a claim as important as this. "
