- Work on the Lobios river station is nearing completion
The Miño-Sil Hydrographic Confederation (CHMS) is continuing to strengthen the sustainable management of water resources in the international district of the rivers Miño, Sil and Limia through the European POCTEP RISC_PLUS project. This programme, focused on increasing resilience to climate change, has made significant progress in the implementation of automatic hydrological information and water quality systems, as well as in the design of a joint Special Drought Plan between Spain and Portugal.
The AHIS system, which currently operates with 116 control points in the region, will reach 124 by the end of the project in 2026. For its part, the SAICA system will increase its monitoring stations from 18 to 20. Among the new stations already operational are those located on the Narla river in Friol (Lugo), the Quiroga river in Quiroga (Lugo) and the Tamuxe river in O Rosal (Pontevedra). In addition, the stations on the Sil river in Toreno (León) and on the Lobios river in Lobios (Ourense) are in the process of being completed.
