| Starting in the next few days, the municipal brigades will resume maintenance work on Cartagena's coastal beaches | The municipal brigades return this week to the cleaning and maintenance work of the coastal areas of the municipality, following a specific protocol for personal safety guided by the Occupational Risk Prevention service.
The brigades are going to carry out cleaning and disinfection tasks, removal of bulky items and maintenance and maintenance tasks.
In the case of the Mar Menor, a good part of their work will focus on the removal of the remains of algae that reach the shore after a month of east wind, as reported by the Deputy Mayor and head of the Mar Menor municipal commission , Noelia Arroyo.The weather conditions have generated accumulations of algae that, due to the effect of the wind, arrive very fractured and decompose rapidly, especially in the Los Urrutias area.
Mixed teams from the Community and the city council will establish a mechanism for their removal that must remain active for weeks, since the presence of algae occupies strips of about three meters wide in front of the beach.After the successive DANAs that have affected the Mar Menor, the three administrations undertook tasks of recovery and cleaning of the sandbanks through a program that was well advanced when the declaration of the state of alarm stopped the maintenance work, as explained by the deputy mayor.
Arroyo has insisted that “collaboration between the three administrations is essential.
We must exercise our powers in a coordinated way if we want to work more effectively in the recovery of the Mar Menor.
”As reported, last week began work to remove reed in the vicinity of the Los Nietos yacht club by operators from the General Directorate of the Mar Menor, who are also authorized by Costas to remove the biomass accumulated on the coastline.
