The socialist Herick Campos claims that the central government has forgotten the project of the desalination plant in Dénia

The socialist deputy and provincial deputy general secretary, Herick Campos, has denounced that the Popular Party's cuts are resulting in municipalities in the Marina Alta and Marina Baixa regions that do not have a guaranteed water supply throughout the day.

According to Campos, this shortage is due to the policies carried out by the Popular Party, which in the Marina Alta is illustrated with two clear examples: on the one hand, the expansion of the Xàbia desalination plant through an agreement with ACUAMED through which the company would bear the expenses, and on the other, the construction of a desalination plant in Dénia.

According to Campos, these projects were parked when the PP entered the central government in 2011. The deputy has denounced that the Dénia desalination plant disappears from the general State budgets in 2012 and 2013, reappearing in 2014 with €275.000, to return to disappear in 2015, without a single euro being invested in pipes within the region or its connection with others.

Although in this area water supply is guaranteed, Campos asked Herik "that measures and actions be taken in the medium term to not deplete the reserve aquifers and provide permanent water autonomy to the Marina Alta, resuming the ACUAMED-Xàbia agreement and a new distribution network".
