The PSOE councilor in the city of Lorca, David Romera, reported that the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura, an agency of the Government of the People's Party "is without taking into account the warnings of those who continue to demand the initiation of preventive action, strategically and planned to minimize the risk of flooding in the town of Lorca. "

After the call from neighbors, David Romera has moved to the hamlet of Campillo once it has been informed that the low rainfall registered this morning, depending on the area have reached between 7 and 25 liters / m3, have caused "serious waterlogging in cultivated areas," especially at the height of the bridge known as Gypsies.

In the words of David Romera "low rainfall this morning have already revealed that the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura has done absolutely nothing in recent years from the flood of St. Wenceslas, to adapt the upper reaches of the wadis of the region in order to prevent the risk of flooding. "

It has acted only from this body to define the historical course of the Rambla de Viznaga.

While it is true that the intensity of rainfall has not been very high, this event itself that has again put "on alert" to the residents of districts as Campillo, Torrecilla or Puri, who especially with the arrival of these dates feel "even more vulnerable" to the serious possibility of re-register the tragic events of 2012, after the floods of St. Wenceslas.

David Romera regrets that neither the City Council of Lorca is insisting "so strong" in the necessary demand to the Ministry of Agriculture to promote, through the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura "flood risk having not taken seriously our municipality and the urgent need for action before the problems occur especially districts of Torrecilla Lorca, Campillo, Purias, or El Esparragal, the neighboring municipality of Puerto Lumbreras ".

In this sense, and as they did the Socialists through two initiatives both through the Parliamentary Group of the PSOE in the Congress of Deputies, and more recently through a motion approved unanimously by the full City Council of Lorca, again insist on the need to be scheduled and execute an action plan "aimed at these districts do not become flooded for security of its neighbors".

Among the initiatives that the PSOE again sue, is the Cleaning and Maintenance Plan of channels, armlets and drains the rivers and streams that run through the town of Lorca;

the construction of a drainage network for driving the water to the Rambla de Viznaga;

the delimitation of historical channels of streams and flows in the area as well as the Plan of Defense against Avenues force is finalized, and must contain the damming of flood control in the headwaters of the streams of Vilerda, Nogalte , Bejar and Torrecilla "to avoid flooding densely populated areas in large deputations from the garden and golf Lorca".
