His spokesman Environment in Cieza, María Cano, remember that the place is an important habitat and ecological corridor, not a channel full of reeds.
Environment spokeswoman of IU-Greens Cieza, has warned of clearing the reeds of the final stretch of the Rambla del Agua Amarga;
work being carried out since last week with the use of heavy machinery.
"It is a nesting area in which they have 'observed' several pairs of moorhens with their chickens, lepers galápagos, sandpipers guys, cascadeñas washerwomen and at least two bird permanent habitat species, and the species that use the passageway as coots, herons and egrets, "he underlined.
The task of "cleaning" that are being made every year, which have been brought forward a couple of weeks regarding the timetable for doing so have been entrusted to a private company by the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura (CHS) holder of the wadis.
"This action has denounced the spokesman for IU-Greens exposes the treatment given to the wadi from the government itself, especially in the final stages that flow into the river and unleashes impotence that is the administration itself which agreda the natural environment unceremoniously and without respecting the times ".
Moreover, denounced the contempt shown towards the values ​​and characteristics of these public channels whose flora acts as natural purification of wastewater from the surrounding terraces.
He notes that "the reed beds and vegetation of the wadis function as 'diffuse' green filters for nitrate pollution, called pollution is responsible for the current state of the Mar Menor".
The quality of the waters that run through this ecological corridor significantly improved in a sustainable and efficient manner and therefore vegetation in wadis have environmental benefits as well as economic benefits for the whole population.
It further argues that "policy makers be made aware of the need for conservation of these natural areas and reject once and for all the false argument ultimately an excuse, torrential floods that result from such vegetation".
Rambla del Agua Amarga has a width of about sixty meters up the road from Calasparra, being reduced its space downstream just three meters so that "the occupation of public riverbed, is a reality," concluded the spokesman.
Finally, despite the City of Cieza has no competence on this matter, the spokesman for IU-Green believes that from the Department of Environment should initiate a dialogue with the CHS and the Directorate General for the Environment, the object to plan another act differently from our midst, as the national and Murcian administration continue doing business as usual, without any consideration to the ecological damage that occurs.
