The president of the Popular Party of the Region of Murcia, Fernando López Miras, has committed to initiate the procedures for the creation of a Marine Reserve of fishing interest in Cabo Cope in the first 100 days of the Government.

This has been one of the 10 commitments he has acquired with the Region of Murcia that will be executed in his first three months of government, demonstrating once again, in the words of the popular candidate to the Eagles, Eva Reverte, his real commitment to the municipality of Águilas.

Reverte explained that the fact of being able to materialize this Reserve, which will only affect marine waters, will bring multiple benefits to the locality, attracting quality tourism, enhancing the area as a great environmental value, promoting sustainable fishing and converting it into a unique space for Diving.

Strengthening of artisanal fisheries

The candidate has indicated that its objective is to make sustainable fishing compatible with other activities such as sports or tourism, in turn promoting the increase of species of fishing interest by protecting those species of interest such as coral reefs and grassland and poseidonea serve as protection zones for marine fauna that serve as alevinaje.

This special protection, as Reverte has qualified, will encourage fishing to be strengthened by increasing the number of species, which will help to incorporate young fishermen into the activity and raise awareness and training in the artisanal fishing sector.

Work groups

Reverte has qualified that with the delimitation of the Reserve in the spaces will limit certain activities in zones and according to the times of the year.

The first step to start the process will be the creation of working groups that, based on the studies already done, will agree and delimit the extension of the reservation as well as the activities that will be allowed in each of the plots.

Initially, according to Reverte, public administrations, professional fishing, sport fishing and diving will work in these groups, however, it has advanced that the initial study sets an area that goes from Cabo Cope to La Marina.

Reverte recalled that it is very important for Águilas that in his 10 initial commitments, Fernando López Miras, has taken into account the creation of this Marine Reserve in Cabo Cope, since its implementation will turn it into a tourist attraction of incalculable environmental value.

In addition, he stressed that "during these four years have been more than 9 million euros that the regional government has allocated to Águilas for the improvement of infrastructure and services and incentives and this new commitment demonstrates what takes into account the city of Eagles ".

In this sense, the popular has called for maintaining "confidence in the Popular Party, which has always shown that things can be done well for the benefit of citizens."
