Present views on the General Plan Municipal Sewer Management (27/09/2010)

Ecologists in Action has provided a document of allegations to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of the General Municipal Plan of Arrangement (PGMO) Sewer in proposing alternatives to excessive land for development proposals for the town, which is not addressed adequately the needs of services and facilities of any kind arising from urban development raised and indirect environmental effects and synergistic effects of such developments in relation to energy consumption, water consumption, wastewater production, waste generation , etc.

Ecologists in Action believes that the PGMO poses an excessive proportion of developable land.

The low proportion of undeveloped land, compared to 45.7% declared buildable, ignores the precautionary principle and has significant environmental risks.

The territory is a limited resource, non-replaceable or upgradeable and support systems and key processes such as maintenance of ecosystems and environmental functionality rural areas, conservation of biodiversity and landscape and maintenance of essential ecological processes.

The Sewer PGMO proposing to half the municipal territory as buildable, which further collapse a municipality that supports and excessive charges of urbanization and accelerate its transformation to urban and industrial uses and infrastructure occupation, losing the heritage that still holds in relation to the landscape and environmental values of the agricultural land and natural or semi-natural.

For this environmental organization is necessary to choose eco-efficient land use, ie to restrict the conversion to urban uses compact types and expansion of existing towns, fleeing from a low density residential typologies, which involve a high consumption soil and a great waste of energy resources and infrastructures.

However, the Sewer PGMO provides devote a considerable amount of territory as unsectorised developable land with low density residential use.

In particular, this minimum developable density represents a total of 2,165,969 m2, something truly unsustainable in any municipality and a town completely disproportionate size Sewell.

The PGMO is very inadequate in relation to the clear need to expand green areas and they really respond to his name and objectives: areas occupied by vegetation in the service of citizens

The Plan does not provide alternatives to the deteriorating air quality in the municipality.

Ecologists in Action proposes drafting and implementation of a Plan to Improve Air Quality, including corrective measures on emissions and establish short-and medium-term control of these in the chemical industrial parks and and emissions in road traffic.

Likewise, insufficient attention is paid to sustainable mobility and daily transportation problems and traffic congestion, one of the main problems faced daily by the citizens of Sewell.

It is incomprehensible that the PGMO not include a special section on traffic calming, limiting car and promote sustainable mobility, through a substantial improvement of public transport and an integrated system of bicycle paths that interconnect the neighborhoods with the center with transport nodes and workplaces and industrial sites.
