The meeting was attended by the mayors of San Rafael, Omar Félix, and Malargüe, Celso Jaque, the superintendent of Irrigation, Sergio Marinelli; the General Director of Government Affairs, Francisco Mondotte, legislators and councilors of the fourth district and representatives of the business chambers.
The objective is to formulate a joint defense of the Atuel River, with the support of the entire political and business arc. The South Oasis must continue its sustainable development by guaranteeing access to water, an essential resource for the activities of our community.
Ours has had a consistent strategy since 1987 in the dispute with La Pampa over the Atuel River, recognizing that it is an interprovincial river.
Mendoza has made more than five proposals for tripartite works to resolve the situation, but La Pampa has not accepted them, which shows a willingness to obstruct the issue.
“Currently, a report presented in May speaks of an availability of water that is not realistic. Works are needed to comply with the ruling of the Supreme Court, but La Pampa and the Nation must accept the proposals of the province of Mendoza or sit down. talk to advance a works plan. Without said plan, it will not be possible to comply with the ruling and let the water flow to La Pampa,” they expressed from the Government.
