Aljaraque City CouncilAljaraque (Huelva) has had problems for years due to flooding in the vicinity of several streams that run through its municipality. The project will act in the area of the Chorrillo del Valle Stream, improving the general state of conservation and the ecological functions of the ecosystems and the microclimate associated with the channel. It will also be responsible for controlling the influence of vegetation on the transport capacity of the channel in floods, the topographic adaptation of the riparian areas for the lamination of the flow and the retention of the substrate for the stabilization of the riparian system.
Some of the actions included in this project are:
- Municipal strategy against climate change and flood risk
- Handling and control of the cane (Arundo donax)
- Sediment Cleaning
- Creation of riparian forest
