In that documentation, continues to expose the mayor, also it included a complaint that I sent you, the president of the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura, being interested in the promenade discharges Albujón.
The textual response we received was that there was no such spill and not yet producing the spillage, periodic samples were taken with satisfactory results.
The mayor lamented that this is the level.
Last summer discharges today refused and asked forgiveness for the state of the Mar Menor.
What could have been a prolonged work in time, with solutions adopted rationally, calm and whole, today becomes precipitation and a statement of good intentions that leave the designated farmers and the Mar Menor in danger.
Lopez finished arguing that for these reasons we are joint solutions.
We must involve all institutions and stop thinking shortsightedness;
the Mar Menor is a problem of all.
We trust that this will pick up, as a first step in the Comprehensive Plan that the European Union demands from us.
