Project description

Improving the hydrogeological knowledge of the Mancha Occidental II groundwater body.

From July 2019 to December 2022, the CUAS MOII and the CN IGME-CSIC have been collaborating under a Provision of Services related to advice and supervision of actions to improve the hydrogeological knowledge of the Mancha Occidental II groundwater body, carried out in different activities, among other things, a Piezometric Observation Network managed by the CUAS MOII has been developed, annual reports have been provided in reference to the Special Drought Plan, as well as annual reports on the quality of groundwater. The good relations between both entities and the fruitful results obtained have led to the formalization of the Contract to continue the work in the territory defined by the Mancha Occidental II groundwater body, and to continue advancing in the hydrogeological knowledge of this groundwater body.
