La Mancha" wet "

Angel Guerrero will explain the status of wetlands of La Mancha, "The day 8 and July 9 visit the boards and The Coldstream Ruidera in this exceptional year. Rain and snowfall during December and January have allowed rivers Amarguillos, Cigüela, stilts, and Guadiana Azuer exist in practice, not topographic maps.
"Visits these sites are moving the consciences of La Mancha to think about how you can get to keep these natural sites, either by regulating the visits, as retaining the necessary water contribution to what happened does not happen in the first decade of the century.
surface runoff, although attempted, can not be more than the existing regular: Peñarroya reservoirs, Vallehermoso and The Mule. For centuries the water balance was achieved with groundwater. This was broken after 80 years, from over-pumping which underwent groundwater called Wet Spot. The water level came down to 100m.Esta situation caused the overflow subálveas natural waters in Villahermosa, El Peral, Los Ojos del Guadiana (Tables header Coldstream), La Laguna Blanca (The header Ruidera) ... disappear. The difficult solution must be resolved between the users and the various administrations, National, Regional and Local. The European WFD obliges us to seek solutions to achieve perpetuate the current status of these unique places that we visit. "
" Recently I visited Ruidera. From Madridejos to Tomelloso, by the Highway of the Vineyard, was observing the consequences of the rains of December and January which had references. On December 30 could not travel on the highway of Andalucia, between Valdepeñas and Madridejos, by hazard, due to overflow of streams, puddles in the road and the blanket of water that was falling, I did not see the road. Where the motorway crosses the River Vineyards, I suggested to my companions that was observed as the flow of Amargillo (would be about 20 km from Madridejos). At this point, the channel is almost always dry.

The vision was gratifying, he had enough water, even in the remaining oxbow ponds, then the river had resumed its old course. First anomaly since Typically, where the highway crosses the Andalusian Amarguillos Madridejos, downstream of the filter, the "River" is a trickle. Finally I see the first step in the Guadiana done under the freeway, the Prior of the Grand Canal, the first draft of Juan de Villanueva in the late eighteenth century, one of the works of the engineers of the eighteenth and nineteenth century, to use the waters of irrigable Alto Guadiana and make these places and try to prevent the starvation of the inhabitants of this area have been for centuries (the lands of the Order of Santiago, to hard to live!). Confirming

my hypothesis: had enough water at high speed, as never seen since I do my tours and Castilian-La Mancha and took more than 20 years in the sport. I've never enjoyed this marvel. View the river guardians circular Mancha. In the Summer Course of Engineering and Society Fudnación study what the state can do for La Mancha to stay with this moisture, which occurs only in rare wet years. "
