A few weeks ago, the regional daily La Opinión published information in which "the farmers of the Vega Alta Valcárcel beg in Madrid to halt the project to pipe the Segura."
This news has provoked a reaction from various sectors and also the Mayor of Jumilla Francisco Abellán Valcárcel requiring that the water issue, "defend the interests of all farmers, including the Altiplano."
To Abellán, "that means that if they ignore Valcárcel, Valcárcel plunge us into misery to farmers and residents of Altiplano, because we would leave the possibility that the water came from the Tagus to the Segura and Segura to the Altiplano and without the ability to run more than 300,000 million euros coming from EU funds from Brussels. "
Jumilla mayor also asked under what farmers talk, Jumilla and Yecla since they also have their representatives and "all they will be asked if you want water to flow to plateau," says Abellán, adding that "Valcarcel has to be brave and say who you are, if in all the region, including the Altiplano you know you need water, or just those that you pass your hand. "
In that work to bring water from the Tagus to the Segura and Segura to the Highlands, and there is a written project and an approved environmental impact statement.
In this regard, Francisco Abellán has announced the development of an initiative to the next plenary session in which "will require Valcárcel to support the interests of farmers in the Altiplano, allowing it to run this project to bring water to this region" .
