The Department of the Environment has reported that the reforestation and hydrological correction work has been completed on the Atalaya mountain, included in the catalog of mountains of public utility.Through the participatory budgeting process carried out by the Cieza City Council, a citizen proposal was approved to carry out actions to restore the vegetation cover and fight against erosion.The works, which were awarded in 2019 for an amount of 29,878 euros, had to undergo a major revision after the serious damage caused by DANA last September, which was primed precisely on the north face of the Watchtower, due to its steep slope and terrain characteristics, which is why a large part of the planned works are aimed at recovering the serious problems of erosion, runoff and damage to roads and paths, essential for the maintenance and conservation of the forest and the enjoyment of users.The works include repopulation with native species, actions to improve drainage and stabilization with gabions, as well as the removal of land, stones and trees from the path and paths on the north face.

It is also intended to improve the existing infrastructures for the provision of irrigation that guarantees the maintenance of the current repopulation works, as well as those carried out by associations of the municipality and included within the Environmental Volunteer Program.
