30 July 2019 - 10: 06

After the controversy that has resurfaced the last weeks on the state of the dianenses coasts and, especially, the accumulation of posidonia, the councilor of Beaches, Pepe Doménech, wanted to explain what is the procedure they follow when cleaning them. Especially in the rocky sections, which are the areas that have aroused the most criticism and which, by their nature, require a unique cleaning protocol.

Thus, Domenech has told this medium the current cleaning plan and where the removal of Posidonia will be carried out in the coming days. According to the councilman, throughout this week the coves of Barranc de l'Amboixar will be cleaned, at the end of the Paseo de la Marineta Casiana, and its continuation, the cove next to the Helios Restaurant.

The cleaning calendar for the month of August on the rocky coast of Dénia cannot yet be foreseen. The performances will be carried out week by week, since, in addition, August is a month in which there are usually numerous storms.

Rocky coves require special treatment

For the cleaning of the rocky coves, due to their difficulty, two methods are usually used, he says: "a type machinery "octopus" or manual cleaning. Manual cleaning is done daily, but the machines only come on demand, that is, when there has been temporary and there is some accumulation. The main reason is that the machines erode the coast, their work can affect the rocks and destroy the landscape ". Therefore, Doménech insists that it is necessary to wait until there is a greater quantity that facilitates the collection with this machinery, as he explained in the past full after the question of the popular mayor María Mut.

What is true in the rumors that shovels return dead algae to the sea?

As for the comments of some citizens that the retired posidonia is returned to the sea, the beach councilor clarifies the procedure: "When there is temporary, the collection of the posidonia on the sandy beaches is carried out in two phases: as the posidonia is collected mixed with sand, in a first step, it is returned to the sea to" steal "the least possible amount from the coast of sand. When it is returned to the sea, the posidonia is cleared of sand. When the sea returns to spit that posidonia, then it is already removed ".

    Dear Sirs of the Town Hall, in the ravine of l'Emboixar, next to the Farrallo, the smell of decomposing algae is unbearable.
    These algae should be removed by hand daily during the months of July and August, as has been done for other years and not wait for them to accumulate.
    A lot of people pass by in the marineta and in that section previously mentioned the days of very hot going through there is foul.
    What a picture we are giving ..
    Remove the seaweed that accumulate daily!
