In Andalusia There are hundreds of areas classified as flood zones in which there are, more frequently than desired, homes or activity centers.
The recent DANA highlighted the danger of living near the natural watercourse and the Régie therefore decided to prepare a map which identifies these potentially dangerous points.
The president himself, Juanma Morenohe explained yesterday during the control session at Plenary session of the regional parliament the double usefulness of this collection: “That these territories are not extended, as some have allowed, and that citizens are aware that they live in a powder keg.”
Well, obviously a potentially floodable area can become floodable at some point. It is for this reason that “residents must be” aware that when they go to a house – one of those that appears on this map – it is going to be flooded because they are in the natural bed of ‘a river. streams and rivers“.
In the same way, joint decisions with the Town Halls must be a constant, which will also become clearer with this geographical project, which aims to guarantee that people linked to these enclaves know at all times what they must do in a such an extreme situation. .
Regardless, the president recognized that “no system in the world is prepared for such a catastrophe”, but for this reason he believes that Andalusia must be “as prepared as possible and with the best resources “, taking into account that “climate change “It is effective and there will be more episodes like this in Spain and, in particular, in the Mediterranean.”
More funding for Asema
In this sense, he recalled the reinforcement of 260 million in the budget of the new Security and Comprehensive Emergency Management Agency of Andalusia (Asema) in 2025, and the 100 million already allocated to Map Infocawith which “the emergency system was strengthened”.
Likewise, he highlighted that this Infoca staff already works 365 days a year, with the coverage against the natural threats that this implies, and thanked the work of the 500 Andalusian professionals deployed in Valencia to mitigate the ravages of the cold “with enormous strength and dedication.
This human transfer reflects Andalusian solidarity and Moreno’s position to “protect” the conception of Spanish state. “When we fight state institutions, we devalue them, we generate discredit“, he stressed, warning against “the chaos, anarchy or totalitarianism that occurs in some of these countries when the state is diluted.”
