Following statements by the Mayor of Cieza, Pascual Lucas, a digital media about the work of "urbanization of the river", reducing the role of the City Council to "financial partner", "for a company to continue greasing the machinery and do I want in such a substantial part of the landscape of a village like the banks of a river, the chief organizer of IU-Greens in the city, Jose Maria Rodriguez, and spokesman for environmental affairs, María Cano, have appeared in press Press on Wednesday to secure the position of his organization.
Rodriguez has begun his appearance recalling that two months ago, before the silence of the mayor, IU-Greens and expressed his position against an agreement signed with ACUAMED by the previous mayor four days before the elections, by the terms of the ;
"An agreement that harshly criticized by the economic implications entailed, but we showed our strong concerns because we believed that it was at any time a project of environmental recovery, but rather a pretext to waste money all works that they have nothing to do with environmental recovery. "
The head of IU-Greens Cieza, remembering what happened in these two months, has reported that the project was finally approved by the Ministry of Agriculture on 11 August and the Municipal Government Team had a meeting with state representatives ACUAMED company in which these were receptive to suggestions include municipal government that the project improved both in economic terms and environmental, and why, "dated August 28 the municipal government take a According to the Governing Council, and this agreement will substantially lowers the economic value of the project, 25%, and also those more aggressive aspects are removed with the river environment, since it had the word of the company to eliminate what which is considered harmful to the people of Cieza and its surroundings ".
However, in early September the company started the work without warning and within days he unilaterally froze.
After a while the company began work with the results that everyone can see.
Rodriguez stressed that today we can say that they are not respecting the agreements of the Governing Council, and work is running without respecting contained in the project, with many irregularities on the projected modifications walk work that are causing a real wreck, which in many parts of the route does not take into account the river dynamics, and no sustainable criterion for restoration of riverbanks.
"Therefore it concluded -HA Rodriguez strikes us as manifestations of the mayor in an interview in a digital medium claims that the" City of Cieza no part in the project, the entire procedure takes him ACUAMED and the Confederation Hydrographic Segura. "As mayor you forget, do not know whether intentionally, he himself along signed his fellow government a document that substantially lowered the cost of the work, and it was a better project for the river, its citizens and the City Council. We believe these statements leave very badly on the council of the municipal government, the City Council considered only as "financial partner" for a company to continue greasing the machinery and do what you want as an item substantial landscape of a people as the banks of a river, are not the best words of the first representative of a city, which is the mayor. "

It is covered with biodegradable plastic and a contribution of topsoil unrestrained by a geotextile mesh or vegetable or protection of slopes.
He also noted that there have been adjustments in the works of the "ecotourism" path, in flat has a width of 2 m in reality at its widest stretch reaches 1.5 m at its narrowest section 80 cm , depriving disabled people opting to use and enjoy the ride;
at par, that "land-based, high volume machines and boulders thrown into the edge of the runway with little care and delicacy, is channeling a little more so the channel, whose effectiveness will be questionable lights all short and medium term, posing as an ecological disturbance counterpart river landscape and artificiality of the scenery, beaches and typical most characteristic and charming corners, "that in a flood or torrential rain, the river will demand their right and free way, together with the elimination of reeds which is also protective, just expect a speed increase of the waters in these areas and its consequences known to history. "
He also emphasized that "although the planting phase of neo riparian forest, has not started, this will be the next issue to be addressed and controlled, since there is no native plant in the available supply this intervention market. However , replanting represents only a palliative to-environmental irreversible "environmental statement.
