ANSE asks the Autonomous effective measures to reduce the pressure of visitors to the shores of Calblanque, and improvements in the management of the park (29/09/2008)

The Governing Board of the Regional Park Calblanque, Monte de las Cenizas y Peña del Águila is meeting this morning (09:15 pm Hotel NH Cartagena) to address issues related to the annual report of activities, the declaration of the area as a reserve Biosphere and Integrated Management Plan 2008-2012.

ANSE shall at the meeting of the Governing Board, among other things: the lack of response of the autonomous region to the writings of the association to demonstrate the lack of enforcement of environmental restoration activities of the extension work of the Portman-road Atamaria (made several years ago by the same region), construction projects inside the park houses for second homes and observing the rules of the protected area, the malfunctioning of the sewage treatment plant south of Mar Menor and to landfill coast, the deterioration of the Rasall Salinas, and the lack of regulation or control over intensive farming in the north of the protected space.

The Association regrets that the Directorate General of the Environment did not include in the agenda of important issues such as Project Adequacy Calblanque environment presented by the Municipal Services of the City of Cartagena Coast last summer, which aims to facilitate further access of vehicles and visitors to different parts of the coastal area of the park.

ANSE's view, action should be addressed as provided prior to the presentation of the project in the context of the Governing Board, so that stakeholders could provide different views on the matter.

In this regard, ASEAN has been lobbying for over a decade an active policy to manage the influx of visitors to this fragile area, for example, by setting a daily quota of vehicles, especially in summer period.

However, the measures taken to date have been insufficient to exist very important tensions and impacts associated with the massive influx of cars and visitors, often outstripping the carrying capacity of space.

The draft submitted by the Municipal Services of the City of Cartagena Litoral seeks to eliminate the only limiting factors at present procedure, so that will significantly increase the number of visitors and their impacts in violation of the determinations of the Plan of Management Natural Resources Regional Park "Calblanque, Monte de las Cenizas y Peña del Águila.
