Valencian flood prevention cooperation
Overview
The Júcar Hydrographic Confederation (CHJ) and the Valencian Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FVMP) have established an agreement to enhance flood prevention measures within the Valencian Community.
The pact focuses on improving the flow of flood risk information to local town halls and organizing training for municipal technicians and citizens. This collaboration follows previous institutional tensions and mutual accusations regarding the management of the October 2024 DANA weather event. Specifically, local mayors had raised concerns regarding the maintenance of riverbeds and ravines, such as the Carraixet ravine, and the buildup of vegetation in watercourses.
