INDEPRO and PWACS awarded the Flood Risk Plan in Vegas Altas
INDEPRO Consultores de Ingeniería, in a Temporary Joint Venture (UTE) with PW Advisory & Capital Services (PWACS), has been awarded the contract to draft the Flood Risk Plan. This project, promoted by Aquanex, covers the municipalities belonging to the Vegas Altas-La Serena Consortium, the Vegas Altas Association of Municipalities, and the municipality of Villanueva de la Serena.
Importance of the Flood Risk Plan
Water resource management and public safety are fundamental priorities in modern engineering. The preparation of this Flood Risk Plan will provide the region with a clear roadmap to prevent disasters and protect both public infrastructure and residential areas.
Summary and project objectives
The main objective is to establish an organisational structure and an efficient procedure for action in emergency situations. The key elements of the Flood Risk Plan include:
- Territorial zoning: Detailed risk analysis to delimit areas according to the urgency of intervention.
- Vulnerability cataloguing: Identification of sensitive elements requiring priority protection.
- Alert protocols: Clear procedures to inform the population and coordinate actions with Civil Protection.
- Resource management: A complete inventory of the technical and human resources available to implement the planned activities.
Commitment to territorial safety
Thanks to the experience of INDEPRO and PWACS, this Flood Risk Plan will ensure a coordinated response across the municipalities belonging to the Vegas Altas-La Serena Consortium and the Vegas Altas Association of Municipalities. The implementation of these water-safety measures places Villanueva de la Serena at the forefront of risk prevention in Extremadura.
This initiative strengthens the resilience of the region against adverse weather events, helping to ensure sustainable and protected development for all its residents.
