Zújar.
Key features of the case study
- This project is part of the National Strategy for River Restoration (an initiative of the Ministry of Environment and developed at the Zújar river by the Confederación Hidrográfica del Guadiana) and the State Special Fund for Revitalize Economy and Jobs (Plan E) . The full project covers 30 km of the river, and for facilitating the execution of the works is divided in four sub-projects.[1] [2] [3] [4]
- The project is based on an extense and deep study of the river reach carried out by the Centro de Estudios y Experimentación de Obras Públicas del Ministerio de Fomento (CEDEX)[5] and the Study for the management, restoration and comprehensive use of the resources of the Zújar river and Action Plan done by the Centro de Estudios Socio-económicos de Extremadura (CESEX) for the Comunidad Autónoma de Extremadura.
- The Zújar river is regulated upstream by two dams (La Serena dam and Zújar dam) circumstance that makes imposible to return to the situation prior to this anthropogenic disturbance. The objective of the project is then the rehabilitation or renaturalization of this river reach, as certain pressures cannot be removed.
- The main objectives of the project are:
- Restoration and conservation of the riparian vegetation.
- To consolidate the longitudinal connectivity and the lateral connectivity of the fluvial ecosystem.
- Preserve the Public Hydraulic Domain from new pressures.
- Environmental education and awareness through the development of outreach activities.
- To enable the wildlife mobility.
- Monitoring the biological and physical factors of the reach.
